Downstream Zephyr RTOS Release Management - Keeping up With Upstream Pace - Parthiban N, Linumiz

Tuesday June 16, 2026 4:50pm - 5:30pm IST

Lotus 2 (Third Floor)

Zephyr is officially 10 years old and many silicon manufacturers are moving towards it as a de-facto RTOS. With over 3000+ contributors and 15,000+ commits per release, Zephyr is one of the fastest moving open source RTOS projects today.
Linumiz is a software partner with silicon manufacturers like Infineon and Texas Instruments, maintaining open source downstream Zephyr releases for their customers. This involves backporting bug fixes, security fixes, rebasing, and moving to new release cycles to keep up with Zephyr's upstream development pace.
