Arm SoC Migration

Overview

Migrate embedded, automotive, or general-purpose applications between Arm SoCs (e.g., Graviton → Raspberry Pi, NXP i.MX8 → NVIDIA Jetson Orin).

Workflows

1. Discovery — Scan codebase for platform-specific code, compare architectures
2. Planning — Migration plan, risk assessment, performance impact analysis
3. Implementation — Refactor into HAL layers, update build systems
4. Validation — Cross-compilation, benchmarking, functional tests

Key Rules

• Preserve behavior: no silent API or timing changes
• Isolate SoC-specific code in HAL layers
• Maintain safety properties and error handling
• Document all changes
