Upgrade and Compatibility Information

Please note that the MCAL Release Versioning has changed and now is in accordance with AUTOSAR requirement SRS_BSW_00321. The MCAL Module Version number (Major.Minor.Patch) is updated only during release cycle based on the change in source/compatibility with previous release. MCAL Modules will not have a common version number. MCAL Package release version and the Bundle Version of the configurator plugins will be updated for each new release.

Details based on SRS_BSW_00321. The Version numbers of MCAL AUTOSAR Basic SW Modules shall be enumerated according to the below rules:

Increasing the more significant digit of a version number resets all less significant digits.
PATCH_VERSION is incremented if the module is still upwards and downwards compatible (ex. Bug fixes).
MINOR_VERSION is incremented if the module is still downwards compatible (ex. valid functionality added).
MAJOR_VERSION is incremented if the module is not compatible any more (ex. existing API valid).

IMPORTANT NOTE: User should ensure to use below modules version for MCAL_SitaraMPU_10.01.00 release. User should take care to not mis-match or mix-and-match the versions with various MCUSW releases. Bundle Version of all plugins is 10.01.00.
