Currently, the input driver is developed based on the HDF and is loaded and started by the HDF. Register the driver information, such as whether to load the driver and the loading priority in the configuration file. Then, the HDF starts the registered driver modules one by one.

Dynamic memory management allows memory blocks of any size to be allocated from a large contiguous memory \(memory pool or heap memory\) configured in the system based on user demands when memory resources are sufficient. The memory block can be released for further use when not required. Compared with static memory management, dynamic memory management allows memory allocation on demand but causes fragmentation of memory.
The dynamic memory of the OpenHarmony LiteOS-M has optimized the memory space partitioning based on the Two-Level Segregate Fit \(TLSF\) algorithm to achieve higher performance and minimize fragmentation. [Figure 1](#fig1179964042818) shows the core algorithm of the dynamic memory.

Multiple free lists are used for management based on the size of the free memory block. The free memory blocks are divided into two parts: \[4, 127\] and \[2<sup>7</sup>, 2<sup>31</sup>\], as indicated by the size class in [Figure 1](#fig1179964042818).
Multiple free lists are used for management based on the size of the free memory block. The free memory blocks are divided into two parts: \[4, 127\] and \[2<sup>7</sup>, 2<sup>31</sup>\], as indicated by the size class in the above figure.
1. The memory in the range of \[4, 127\]\(lower part in [Figure 1](#fig1179964042818)\) is divided into 31 parts. The size of the memory block corresponding to each part is a multiple of 4 bytes. Each part corresponds to a free list and a bit that indicates whether the free list is empty. The value **1** indicates that the free list is not empty. There are 31 bits corresponding to the 31 memory parts in the range of \[4, 127\].
2. The memory greater than 127 bytes is managed in power of two increments. The size of each range is \[2^n, 2^\(n+1\)-1\], where n is an integer in \[7, 30\]. This range is divided into 24 parts, each of which is further divided into 8 second-level \(L2\) ranges, as shown in Size Class and Size SubClass in the upper part of [Figure 1](#fig1179964042818). Each L2 range corresponds to a free list and a bit that indicates whether the free list is empty. There are a total of 192 \(24 x 8\) L2 ranges, corresponding to 192 free lists and 192 bits.

For example, insert 40-byte free memory to a free list. The 40-byte free memory corresponds to the 10th free list in the range of \[40, 43\], and the 10th bit indicates the use of the free list. The system inserts the 40-byte free memory to the 10th free list and determines whether to update the bitmap flag. When 40-byte memory is requested, the system obtains the free list corresponding to the memory block of the requested size based on the bitmap flag, and then obtains a free memory node from the free list. If the size of the allocated node is greater than the memory requested, the system splits the node and inserts the remaining node to the free list. If 580-byte free memory needs to be inserted to a free list, the 580-byte free memory corresponds to the 47th \(31 + 2 x 8\) free list in L2 range \[2^9, 2^9+2^6\], and the 47th bit indicates the use of the free list. The system inserts the 580-byte free memory to the 47th free list and determines whether to update the bitmap flag. When 580-byte memory is requested, the system obtains the free list corresponding to the memory block of the requested size based on the bitmap flag, and then obtains a free memory node from the free list. If the size of the allocated node is greater than the memory requested, the system splits the node and inserts the remaining node to the free list. If the corresponding free list is empty, the system checks for a free list meeting the requirements in a larger memory range. In actual application, the system can locate the free list that meets the requirements at a time.

There are three types of nodes: free node, used node, and end node. Each memory node maintains the size and use flag of the memory node and a pointer to the previous memory node in the memory pool. The free nodes and used nodes have a data area, but the end node has no data area.
The off-chip physical memory needs to be used because the on-chip RAMs of some chips cannot meet requirements. The OpenHarmony LiteOS-M kernel can logically combine multiple discontiguous memory regions so that users are unaware of the discontiguous memory regions in the underlying layer. The OpenHarmony LiteOS-M kernel memory module inserts discontiguous memory regions into a free list as free memory nodes and marks the discontiguous parts as virtual memory nodes that have been used. In this way, the discontinuous memory regions are logically combined as a unified memory pool. [Figure 3](#fig18471556115917) shows how the discontiguous memory regions are logically integrated.

The OpenHarmony LiteOS-M kernel is a lightweight operating system \(OS\) kernel designed for the IoT field. It features small size, low power consumption, and high performance. The LiteOS-M kernel has simple code structure, including the minimum function set, kernel abstraction layer \(KAL\), optional components, and project directory. It supports the Hardware Driver Foundation \(HDF\), which provides unified driver standards and access mode for device vendors to simplify porting of drivers and allow one-time development for multi-device deployment.
The OpenHarmony LiteOS-M kernel architecture consists of the hardware layer and hardware-irrelevant layers, as shown in [Figure 1](#fig1287712172318). The hardware layer is classified based on the compiler toolchain and chip architecture, and provides a unified Hardware Abstraction Layer \(HAL\) interface to improve hardware adaptation and facilitate the expansion of various types of AIoT hardware and compilation toolchains. The other modules are irrelevant to the hardware. The basic kernel module provides basic kernel capabilities. The extended modules provide capabilities of components, such as the network and file systems, as well as exception handling and debug tools. The KAL provides unified standard APIs.

Configure the system clock and number of ticks per second in the **target\_config.h** file of the development board. Configure the task, memory, inter-process communication \(IPC\), and exception handling modules based on service requirements. When the system boots, the modules are initialized based on the configuration. The kernel startup process includes peripheral initialization, system clock configuration, kernel initialization, and OS boot. For details, see [Figure 2](#fig74259220441).
