TM4C129XNCZAD: How long TI RTOS version 2.14.00.10 will be supported?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3200

Hi,

We are using TI RTOS 2.14.00.10 version for TM4C129XNCZAD.

Can we know how long we can get the support for version 2.14.00.10 of TI RTOS? 

Thanks and Regards,

Vamsi

    Hello Vamsi,

    TI-RTOS support for TM4C is owned directly by TM4C experts nowadays. So it will remain supported as long as we are supporting TM4C as a whole which is going to be for years longer.

    I will mention two things about this however:

    1. As we are device experts, we may not be able to offer the deepest level of support on SYS/BIOS topics
    2. Our experience is primarily with TI-RTOS 2.16.00.08, so if there is something different from 2.14 to 2.16, we may have less knowledge there. But any differences would be recorded in the TI-RTOS Release Notes for 2.16.00.08.

    Hi Ralph,

    Thank you for quick reply.

    Is there any plans of security support (patching of vulnerabilities)?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hello Vamsi,

    Our team has not owned any development for TI-RTOS so it is unlikely we would make any patch releases but if the scope and impact are significant enough that could prompt action.

    Hi Ralph,

    Thank you.

    Any other team in TI owning TI-RTOS now? because when I am opening TI-RTOS forum I am getting message saying that "TI-RTOS is closed now as questions are now routed through to device forums(whose teams produce the those SDK's)".

    Thanks and Regard,

    Vamsi

    Hello Vamsi,

    As stated on that forum, TI-RTOS is owned by each device team, so all support for TI-RTOS on TM4C devices is supported by my team. If you use TI-RTOS on, say, a CC3200 device, that support would be owned by the experts for the CC3200. So many teams own TI-RTOS support but its specific to what device you are using. I hope that helps clarify?

    Best Regards,

    Hi Ralph,

    If any security vulnerabilities detected, does TI have a disclosure process? Does TI provide security patches.
    Will the statement "the scope and impact are significant enough that could prompt action" be applicable incase of security vulnerabilities.
    In past does TI provide any security specific patches on TI-RTOS?

    Thanks and Regards,

    Vamsi

    Hello Vamsi,

    That is something that was discussed and yes we would act on security flaws that are exposed. If a security patch is possible it would definitely be deployed. It likely would not be as a full release, but instead of as a patch file to fix the issue. But that would definitely prompt action and it would likely be a wider TI team working on it as TI-RTOS is used across so many products.

    I don't know about the past history. What I do know is we have experts for security that monitor for these sort of issues and take action to either fix or clarify security concerns such as when we did the following update to our datasheet per guidance from security experts to improve our statement of TM4C features: https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spmz863
