Objective
Add support for floating point operations in a formally proven microkernel.
Mission
ProvenCore, our formally proven microkernel, is designed to run in the TrustZone part of powerful ARM Cortex-A-powered System-on-Chips. These processors include advanced SIMD and vector floating point instructions through the usage of the NEON coprocessor.
As a Research & Development Engineer, you will interact with the team in charge of developing our embedded security solutions. More precisely, you will extend a secure operating system to allow secure applications to use floating point and vector arithmetic operations. In order to achieve this goal, you will have to:
- Assess the security implications of enabling NEON support in ProvenCore,
- Modify the development version of the micro-kernel to enable it and allow secure applications to use it,
- Evaluate performance impacts if any.
