Thanks for the interesting debate.

I wish to, in the first instance, take an RTLSDR, sample 8MHz of RF spectrum, use GNU radio to "fish out" any streams, pass those streams along to the Epiphany chip, have the cores on the Epiphany chip decode the streams, and return a result. Results are time sensitive, they must be timestamped (syncfs?). Thats probably the most simple way of explaining what I need done.

Erik said the chip is "powerful enough" to do full 9P, and he is probably right. I thought Styx on a chip, with a payload program of the stream decoder, might be easier to implement. These are only suggestions - I could be barking up the wrong tree.

Charles - I sent you an email with further details.

this isn't exactly GNU Radio, but porting librtlsdr to Plan 9 would enable interesting signal processing applications.

I don't remember that from last time, but it seems a good project.
