I don't understand how the last sentences could be compatible with GPL?

lhH EtherCat https://etherlab.org/en/ethercat/ I think is licensend under GPLv2 license. Master is implemented as kernel module and drivers are included in source code. Guess it should not be to hard to re implement to run as a real time thread and rename to Freecat.

in lgH there is some local changes to the original drivers I guess come kernel, not sure why. I had some problem SOEM with more than three Ethercat devices, message never arrived back in the ring, adding a router and it did, not sure if might have something to do with this.

Guess it is against answer myself. Anyway I found.

Checking again it is possible to turn off building of Kernel modules in lgH so guess it should be rather simple to get into Linuxcnc. Normally an .esi file if I remember postfix correct is used then configuring file and ideally it should be possible to configure by using these files and add .hal pins. Bought Chinese IO modules, 16 bits in and 16 bits but for these are I more or less hardcoded position in Ethercat datagram.
