Enhancing Product Performance

High-quality software is essential to enabling the impressive performance and features of the underlying Arm and RISC-V hardware. RISCstar has the expertise to help you optimize and tune your software to take maximum advantage of your high-performance hardware platform.

Optimizing Power Management

Arm and RISC-V architectures are loaded with power management capabilities but require the software expertise to take full advantage and get it right. We assist companies to leverage the power management of these platforms to help them reduce power consumption.

Hardening Security for Arm and RISC-V

Every Arm or RISC-V chip includes hardware to enable security. Activating these features requires robust software support. We are experts in defining and implementing comprehensive security strategies.

Upstream support for mainline Linux kernel

Our experts handle BSPs, drivers, and SoC enablement, ensuring your code meets kernel standards and community expectations. We manage the entire process—from patch prep to acceptance, reducing maintenance costs and improving long-term stability, security, and compatibility.

Streamlining Device Bring-up

Arm and RISC-V platforms require specialized software to support new boards and SoCs. Our hardware and software expertise ensures seamless hardware bring-up including Device Tree, UEFI, U-Boot, and Linux Kernel integration.

Solve the Downstream/Upstream Challenge

Many SoC BSPs lock companies into older downstream versions of the kernel, which lack sufficient long term support. Leverage our extensive kernel-level expertise with Linux (including Debian, Yocto, OpenEmbedded, Ubuntu, Fedora, Redhat, and Android) and Zephyr on both Arm and RISC-V to make your move to upstream.

Open Source Software for Embedded Systems and Servers

We help you build the best open source strategy for your product. Leverage our extensive kernel-level upstream expertise with Linux on both Arm and RISC-V including Debian, Yocto, OpenEmbedded, Ubuntu, Fedora, Redhat, and Android.
