Bug investigations and optimization

SOLVING <BUGS>

At EDGEMTech, we provide advanced bug investigation and root-cause analysis services for complex embedded systems—especially when issues occur deep in the software stack and standard debugging approaches are no longer sufficient. 

VERY OFTEN,

an outside look and a brainstorming with the development teams bring key elements to the resolution of a bug. 

Our engineers can help you in bug searching and resolution and can assist your teams with some specific debugging technics which are particular to embedded software, such as working with en emulated environment.

software bug investigations

DEEP SYSTEM-LEVEL INVESTIGATIONS

Our team has strong expertise in low-level embedded software analysis, including: 

In-depth

investigations of the Linux kernel 

Bootloader

debugging and optimization (e.g. U-Boot) 

Early boot

and initialization issues 

Memory corruption

race conditions, and timing-related bugs

We operate comfortably from the very first CPU instructions executed at boot, all the way up to user-space applications. 

ADVANCED DEBUGGING METHODOLOGIES

 We rely on proven and efficient debugging methodologies combining both hardware and software tools: 

QEMU

 for fast, reproducible system emulation and fault isolation

JTAG

for real-time, low-level hardware and CPU inspection

Cross-analysis

between emulated and real hardware environments 

Systematic

root-cause identification and validation 

This approach allows us to debug issues that are otherwise extremely difficult to reproduce or analyze. 

OPTIMIZATION UNDER TIGHT CONSTRAINTS

Beyond fixing bugs, we help customers optimize embedded software stacks operating under strict resource constraints: 

RAM

and storage footprint reduction

Boot time

Boot time optimization

Performance

tuning from bootloader to application level

Removal

of unnecessary dependencies and services 

These optimizations are critical for cost-sensitive, battery-powered, or legacy hardware platforms. 

When your system behaves unexpectedly, EDGEMTech goes deep—finding the root cause and delivering durable, production-ready fix.
