  • Bug fixes (see Release Notes for full list)

The foundational components include:
  • SYS/BIOS which is a light-weight real-time embedded operating system for TI devices
  • Chip support libraries, drivers, and basic platform utilities
  • Interprocessor communication for communication across cores and devices
  • Basic networking stack and protocols
  • Optimized application-specific and application non-specific algorithm libraries
  • Debug and instrumentation
  • Bootloaders and boot utilities
