Detailed Description

Guideline Enforcement Plan (GEP)

This document is part of the QP Certification Pack, which has been specifically designed to aid companies in safety certification of their software based on the QP real-time embedded frameworks.

NOTE: This is just a preview. The complete QP Certification Pack can be requested from Quantum Leaps.

Introduction

This report describes the compliance of the QP/C Real-Time Embedded Framework as well as the Application code based on this framework with the Motor Industry Software Reliability Association (MISRA) Guidelines for the use of the C Language in Critical Systems [MISRA3], [MISRA3-A1], [MISRA3-A2]. This description is designed to be applicable to safety-related real-time embedded systems.

About MISRA-C 2012

MISRA C was originally developed to fulfill the need for a “restricted subset of a standardized programming language” identified in the 1994 “Development guidelines for vehicle based software” and against the background of the emerging use of C for developing embedded software in automotive applications.

Once MISRA C was published its relevance to other applications was quickly noted and subsequent revisions of the document have involved a number of experts from different industries and from tool vendors.

MISRA-C:2012, MISRA-C:2012-Amendment 1 and MISRA-C:2012-Amendment 2

Today MISRA C is the de facto standard for developing software in C where safety, security and code quality are important. Future developments of MISRA C will continue to extend support for newer versions of the language, and additional language features.
