Brad raised questions about porting the Ocre runtime to Linux and abstracting the code to work across both Zephyr and Linux platforms. Stephen outlined a plan to leverage WebAssembly's (Wasm) existing support for different OS targets, enabling the core runtime to be compiled for either Zephyr or Linux with minimal changes to the codebase.
Brad also inquired about support for dynamic device discovery, such as enumerating sensors on a bus. Stephen explained that this is an area of active discussion, as Wasm standards bodies are working on defining APIs for interfaces like I2C and GPIO. He outlined potential approaches for Ocre to support dynamic device discovery while balancing standards compliance with practical usability.
Action Items
• Knox, Patrick, and Graeme will meet before the next Ocre meeting to review the Ocre “Getting Started” documentation and flash the runtime to the U585 board. They may also start integrating unit tests and CI/CD workflows if available.
