I want to run two tasks, one of which must run every 100us. My worry is that the timer interrupt could stop this high priority task to run it's own servicing routine. When the high priority task is running under rtlinux can I be assured that this task (which must be kicked off every 100us) will run with out any interruptions. If I can, what is the best way to fire off this task every 100us. * Should I use the pthread_make_periodic_np setting the period to 100us Or * Is it better to generate a hardware interrupt every 100us.
