I noticed that xylotex has an fpga cape in the works for beaglebone black. (as well as other similar items from other sources) I was curious if anyone was looking into the implementation of such fpga capes into a linuxcnc build. also, what would be the benefits and drawbacks to the addition of this fpga module? has anyone thought about how linuxcnc would be able to actually take advantage of the fpga capabilities? I'm just curious because I could see some benefits of possibly allowing the fpga to house the kinematics functions as well as drive multiple step pins simultaneously. I just don't know how linuxcnc would command it. anyway, I just wanted to bring this up for discussion and see what thoughts people had on it.
