Xaloqi EDS

Xaloqi Embedded Diagnostics Suite (EDS) provides a comprehensive diagnostics stack designed for ISO 14229 UDS protocols on Zephyr RTOS and FreeRTOS. This YAML-configured framework adopts a production-grade approach while emphasizing ASIL-B safety within its architecture, seamlessly integrating various transport methods such as DoIP and CAN.

Core Features

EDS eliminates the burden of implementing a UDS diagnostics stack from scratch. Instead, it streamlines the process through a configuration-driven workflow, enabling users to define their ECU's diagnostic interface in a straightforward YAML file. From this specification, complete ISO 14229-compliant C code is automatically generated, along with ASIL-B safety wrappers and extensive test suites, allowing for quick deployment and rigorous validation.

Key Advantages

• No AUTOSAR Dependencies: Unlike traditional systems requiring complex AUTOSAR stacks, EDS simplifies session control, security access, and DTC handling, making it easier to achieve compliance without unnecessary overhead.
• Rapid Code Generation: Describe Diagnostic Identifiers (DIDs) and Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) once in diagnostics_config.yaml, generate compliant code in seconds, and run simulations using native_sim.
• Testing and Integration: The generated stack includes support for extensive testing frameworks, including pytest and the ability to run simulations without the need for specialized hardware.
• Rich Set of Features: EDS comes with built-in support for numerous UDS services, ISO-TP transport mechanics, and detailed configurations for security measures and DTC persistence.
• Open-Core Model: A free tier under GPL v2 allows users to explore the runtime stack and examples, with a commercial licensing option for generating proprietary ECU configurations and advanced tools.

Simplified Installation and Usage

The complete installation and usage workflow enables anyone to clone, build, and simulate operations almost without registration fees. By running a few commands, users can see EDS in action quickly without needing additional CAN hardware.
