RapidIO is a switched fabric interconnect standard      
intended for embedded systems. Providing a message      
based interface, it is currently capable of speeds up   
to 10Gb/s full duplex and is available in many form     
factors including ATCA for telecom applications. In     
this paper, I introduce a RapidIO subsystem for the     
Linux kernel. The implementation provides support for   
discovery and enumeration of devices, management of     
resources, and provides a consistent access mechanism   
for drivers and other kernel facilities. As an example  
of the use of the subsystem feature set, I present a    
Linux network driver implementation which communicates  
via RapidIO message packets.
