Hi, I use 1.5 trunk version of the Etherlab EtherCAT master on a Debian Lenny Linux 5.0. I use the generic network driver (using default a device driven by a default e1000e driver) and PREEMPT_RT.
Normally all works fine: I start Linux, Etherlab EtherCAT Master, and check the list of slaves: # ethercat slaves 0 0:0 OP + EK1101 EtherCAT-Koppler (2A E-Bus, ID-Switch) 1 0:1 OP + EL6692 EtherCAT Bridge-Klemme (Primär) I now start my application, which requests the master. The application runs fine. When I shut down the EtherCAT device, slaves disappears as expcted: # ifconfigeth0 down # ethercat slaves # Next I activate the device again, but slaves don't show up... # ifconfigeth0 up # ethercat slaves # When I stop my application (release the master) the slaves still don't appear. Even rescan doesn't help, it looks like user space missed this new state (device up)... In dmesg everything looks ok: Disabling: [16091.763659] EtherCAT WARNING 0: 3 datagrams TIMED OUT! [16091.783764] EtherCAT 0: Link state changed to DOWN. [16091.787793] EtherCAT 0: 0 slave(s) responding.

[16107.395015] EtherCAT 0: 2 slave(s) responding. [16107.395022] EtherCAT 0: Slave states: PREOP. How can I make sure state and the slaves are tracked correctly in user space? Thanks for any hints Stefan _______________________________________________ etherlab-users mailing list etherlab-users@etherlab.org http://lists.etherlab.org/mailman/listinfo/etherlab-users
