meta-qcomThis layer provides additional recipes and machine configuration files for Qualcomm platforms. OpenEmbedded/Yocto Project hardware enablement layer for Qualcomm based platforms.
meta-audioreachThis layer hosts OpenEmbedded meta layer for AudioReach.
Open-source Git repositories used by Qualcomm Linux platform hosted on GitHub
RepoDescription
github.com/qualcomm-linux/camera-driverThis repository contains the source code of camera-kernel driver for the downstream camera-kernel.
github.com/qualcomm/gst-plugins-imsdkQualcomm® IM SDK provides hardware-accelerated GStreamer plugins and reference applications for multimedia development, along with AI SDK integrations, such as Neural processing SDK, AI engine direct, and Lite runtime.
github.com/qualcomm-linux/video-driverThis repository contains the source code of video driver for VPUs. Required to use VPU hardware on Qualcomm Snapdragon targets.
github.com/qualcomm-linux/kernelQualcomm Linux kernel
github.com/qualcomm-linux/qcom-dtb-metadataqcom-dtb-metadata project provides a specification document and qcom-metadata.dts file for FIT Based DTB packaging and selection as required by Qualcomm Linux.
github.com/qualcomm/userspace-resource-managerUserspace Resource Manager: System Resource Provisioning Framework
github.com/qualcomm/abl2espabl2esp is a minimal reimplementation of ABL that will search for EFI\boot\bootaa64.efi across all available file systems and attempt to load and start what it finds.
github.com/qualcomm/fastrpcFastRPC is Qualcomm’s userspace library that facilitates efficient remote procedure calls between the CPU and DSP for high-performance computing.
github.com/qualcomm-linux/kgslThis repository contains the source code of KGSL driver for the Adreno family of GPUs. Required to use hardware accelerated OpenGL, compute and Vulkan on Qualcomm Snapdragon targets.
github.com/qualcomm-linux/qcom-ptoolqcom-ptool contains various device partitioning utilities, such as ptool.py, gen_partitions.py and various sample partition configuration files needed for Qualcomm SoCs.
github.com/qualcomm/minkipcLibraries that implement and clients that utilize the Mink-IPC interface. MINK is a capability-based security framework.
github.com/qualcomm/sensinghubQualcomm Sensing Hub (QSH) is an always-on, low-power interface designed to collect, process, and combine sensor and contextual data. It offers stable APIs that enable applications and services to interact with the hub efficiently, reducing the need for frequent application processor wakeups.
github.com/AudioReach/audioreach-kernelThis repository hosts a set of out-of-tree Linux kernel drivers which provide communication channel between signal processing framework running on audio DSP and audioReach graph service libraries running in userspace.
github.com/AudioReach/audioreach-audio-utilsAudioreach-audio-utils includes the necessary utilities and libraries for PAL to configure use cases. It contains the audio-route.h header, which defines various APIs used to update mixer paths based on the provided arguments.
github.com/AudioReach/audioreach-palAudioReach platform abstraction layer (Audioreach-PAL) is a hardware abstraction layer for audio and offers different APIs for clients, such as Pulseaudio/Audio-Server to setup and configure audio use cases.
github.com/AudioReach/audioreach-pipewire-pluginThis repository hosts pipewire-plugin which provide modules for pipewire to interact with PAL.
github.com/Audioreach/audioreach-engineThis repository hosts implementation of generic signal processing framework, modules which can be used as part of audio graph, and platform & OS abstraction layer for different architecture & SoCs
github.com/Audioreach/audioreach-confThis repository aims to host configuration files read by various AudioReach components for different vendor/business unit (BU)/chipset/board. Examples of different business unit (BU) can be - Qualcomm Linux, XR, Automotive, Linux Android and so on.
github.com/linux-msm/qbootctlThis HAL was pulled from AOSP source code and refactored to build and run on a musl/glibc system
github.com/linux-msm/rpmsgexportrpmsgexport is a small userspace utility that implements RPMSG_CREATE_EPT_IOCTL — it creates RPMsg endpoint devices automatically through udev rules as remoteproc (DSP/modem) devices come up.
github.com/linux-msm/hexagonrpcThis repo contains a FastRPC ioctl wrapper and a reverse tunnel.

FastRPC is used to communicate with the context hub runtime environment, a program on the DSP that manages sensors, and to serve files to remote processors.
