nRF RPC is a remote procedure call library for |NCS| enabling inter-processor communication on Nordic Semiconductor SoCs. The library is RTOS-agnostic and implements serialization of function calls. It is designed to be used with an underlying transport layer, for example `OpenAMP`_.
The nRF RPC library allows for calling a function on remote processors from a local processor, in both synchronous and asynchronous way.
Depending on the transport layer, the remote processor is not limited to a single device. It can also be a separate device of any type (for example, a PC), or another core on the same system.
The nRF RPC library simplifies the serialization of user APIs, such as a Bluetooth stack, and executing of functions implementing those APIs on a remote CPU. The library is operating system independent so it can be used with any operating system after porting the OS-dependent layers of the library.
The API layer on top of the core nRF RPC API uses the `TinyCBOR`_ library for serialization. nRF RPC requires the Zephyr Project fork of TinyCBOR, because of API differences.
