iso14229 is an implementation of UDS (ISO14229) targeting embedded systems. It is tested with isotp-c as well as linux kernel ISO15765-2 (ISO-TP) transport layer implementations.

API status: Major version zero (0.y.z) (not yet stable). Anything MAY change at any time.

• server and client included
• static memory allocation. (no malloc, calloc, ...)
• highly portable and tested
  • architectures: arm, x86-64, ppc, ppc64, risc
  • systems: linux, Windows, esp32, Arduino, NXP s32k
• multiple transports supported: isotp-c, linux isotp sockets
• examples for esp32, Arduino, NXP S32K144

Contributions are welcome.

When reporting issues, please state what you expected to happen.

• isotp-c which iso14229 embeds.
• The NLnet NGI0 Core Fund which funded some work on iso14229 in 2025.

• breaking API changes:
  • converted subfunction enums to #defines with standard-consistent naming
  • simplified transport API
• refined release checklist in #60

• breaking API changes:
  • event enum consolidated UDS_SRV_EVT_... -> UDS_EVT
  • UDSClient refactored into event-based API
  • negative server response now raises a client error by default.
  • server NRCs prefixed with UDS_NRC_
  • NRCs merged into UDS_Err enum.
• added more examples of client usage

• runtime safety:
  1. turn off assertions by default, enable by -DUDS_ENABLE_ASSERT
  2. prefer return UDS_ERR_INVALID_ARG; over assertion in public functions
• use SimonCahill fork of isotp-c

• amalgamated sources into iso14229.c and iso14229.h to ease integration

• test refactoring. theme: test invariance across different transports and processor architectures
• breaking API changes:
  • overhauled transport layer implementation
  • simplified client and server init
  • UDS_ARCH_ renamed to UDS_SYS_

• breaking API changes:
  • UDSClientErr_t merged into UDSErr_t
  • TP_SEND_INPROGRESS renamed to UDS_TP_SEND_IN_PROGRESS
  • refactored UDSTp_t to encourage struct inheritance
  • UDS_TP_LINUX_SOCKET renamed to UDS_TP_ISOTP_SOCKET
• added server fuzz test and qemu tests
• cleaned up example tests, added isotp-c on socketcan to examples
• added UDS_EVT_DoScheduledReset
• improve client error handling

• usability: refactored into a single .c/.h module
• usability: default transport layer configs are now built-in
• API cleanup: use UDS prefix on all exported functions
• API cleanup: use a single callback function for all server events

• refactor RDBIHandler to pass a function pointer that implements safe memmove rather than requiring the user to keep valid data around for an indefinite time or risking a buffer overflow.
• Prefer fixed-width. Avoid using enum types as return types and in structures.
• Transport layer is now pluggable and supports the linux kernel ISO-TP driver in addition to isotp-c. See examples.

• added iso14229ClientRunSequenceBlocking(...)
• added server and client examples
• simplified test flow, deleted opaque macros and switch statements
• flattened client and server main structs
• simplified usage by moving isotp-c initialization parameters into server/client config structs
• remove redundant buffers in server

• removed all instances of __attribute__((packed))
• refactored server download functional unit API to simplify testing
• refactored tests
  • ordered by service
  • documented macros
• removed middleware
• simplified server routine control API
• removed redundant function iso14229ServerEnableService
• updated example

• Add client
• Add server SID 0x27 SecurityAccess
• API changes

• initial release
