Gang,
OK, so I was having some problems getting a periodic task to run
with the right period. So I went and browsed the simplest of examples,
hello. It seems that I was doing everything OK, but that neither hello nor
my program end up with the correct scheduling periodicity.
For the sake of simplicity, let us focus on the hello example, and I
will assume that whatever fixes it will also fix my code. Can some one
provide me with a working version of the hello example? The version
distributed with the release from FSM Labs simple repeats at an alarmingly
high rate, rather than the .5 second period specified in the call to
rtl_make_periodic_np. I have exactly the same problem.
I browsed rtl_sched.c and all seems to be as it should be. I have
also had problems like this in the past, with periodic tasks not going at
the right rates. I seem to recall the there was a release note about this,
but I can not find it now.
What is the deal gang? Has anyone gotten the published example to
work correctly? If a change was necessary, why wasn't it incorporated into
the published example?
Regards,
Steve
