[[TOC(Developer/Projects/Open/Fault_injection, depth=2)]]

'''Mentors:''' Joel Sherrill

'''Students:''' Past, Present, and Potential Students

'''Status:''' Initialized. More at [https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/SOCIS/2016 SOCIS' wiki page]

'''Introduction:''' Introduce the main concepts around the project: Theoretical preliminaries, preexisting RTEMS capabilities used or augmented (if any), important concepts, problems/needs the project will try to solve/satisfy.

'''Goal:''' Help users get RTEMS certified to meet their needs:

1. project deliverables (code, docs, testing),

Code: python script to run fault-injection tool to acheive same testing goals as: ftp://www.rtems.org/pub/rtems/esa_validation_report_450/ 

Docs: Wiki page and README for how to run the tool

Testing: the student's work will be evaluated on whether following the directions on the README and wiki produces the desired test results.

2. required/suggested methodology

Use an existing free and open software

Use python to invoke it correctly.

3. standards of quality, 

Runs an Linux and Windows...

Produces a report like ftp://www.rtems.org/pub/rtems/esa_validation_report_450/

4. possible goal extensions beyond the main objective.

Have the out-put go into a web-page format


 *  Relevant failures: NOT Most of the report is junk failures. They configure their test
case with more objects than fit into memory and the BSP locked
up about 3 lines into the C code. They wrote this failure up more
than 1000 times.
 *  By directory or by capability reporting... smaller pieces that are easier to analayze

'''Requirements:''' List the requirements and level of expertise you estimate are required by the developer tackling this project will have to have: Required level of programming language(s), specific areas of RTEMS or tools, level of familiarity with RTEMS, cross-development, GNU/Linux, etx., development/documentation/testing tools, mathematical/algorithmic background, other desirable skills. 

'''Resources:''' Current RTEMS developers, papers, etc that may help you in this project.

As the project progresses, you will need to add build instructions, etc and this page will evolve from a project description into a HOWTO.
