From a dev's point of view, this often comes down to eliminating dynamic allocation during system runtime (so we never use `free`), or eliminating it completely (in the case of NuttX, only the first option is probably possible). > > Functional safety opens up the possibility for NuttX to be used in many other industries ok. thank you for explanation. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
