[rtl] strictly frank

2000-07-09 Thread Emeel 

hi, 
i am studying MB's example, frank, distributed with rtl-2.3 and can out
work out the mechanism of transfering data from the RT fifos to the
/dev/rtfx. 
i can see that the non-RT part, in the main() section, opens up 3 files:
/dev/rtf1, /dev/rtf2, /dev/rtf3. is that right?
in the end of main(), still in the non-RT space, the contents of the
above devices is printed.
later on in the RT part of the frank module, 5 fifos are created as
follows:

int init_module(void)
{
-
-
---
c[0] = rtf_create(1, 4000);
c[1] = rtf_create(2, 4000);
.
.
c[4] = rtf_create(5,100);


-
rtf_create_handler(3, &my_handler);
return 0;

}

i can also see that these are the fifos that are written to by the
thread_code(void *t) as follows:

thread_code(void *t){
--
-   
-
rtf_put(fifo, data[fifo -1], 6);
-
-

return 0;
}

i have not yet worked out how the data is transfered from the fifos that
were written to in the thread code to the files /dev/rtfx... that were
printed out in the end.
can anyone please let me know?

thanks in advance.

emeel
sydney.

[rtl] Confused on current release for 2.2.X kernel...

2000-07-09 Thread Robert & Patricia Warner 

I have RTLinux 2.2.a for 2.2.14 Linux kernel.  Is RTLinux 2.3-pre2 only for
Linux 2.2.16 or is it being applied to Linux 2.2.14 as well?

BTW, have 2.2a running on SuSE 6.3 distribution if any one needs a hand.

Thanks
Bob Warner

[rtl] linux-2.2.16 kernel patches and rtlinux-2.3-pre2 and 2.2

2000-07-09 Thread Todd Pfaff 

I have uploaded updated kernel patches to
ftp.rtlinux.org:/pub/incoming/sample-code
for rtlinux-2.3-pre2 and rtlinux-2.2
that will apply cleanly to linux-2.2.16 kernel source.

I also uploaded some scripts for doing a complete build and install 
of an rtlinux 2.x kernel.

These have been tested on linux mandrake 7.0 and 7.1 systems
using the linux-2.2.16-9mdk kernel source from the
mandrake 7.1 update RPM kernel-2.2.16-9mdk.i586.rpm.
