[rtl] Crash of Computer

2000-05-11 Thread Zhixu Liu


Hi, all:

I'm developing a real application, which the system crash is never 
expected. I often encounter the crash during the development of RT 
application, but this day i found a strange problem:

If i insert the rt module after the system running for a long time 
(without rt application running), the system is crashed. Then I 
reboot the system and insert that, there is no problem. It seems 
the rt module need a clean memory enviroment (i.e. after a long 
uptime, the system's mem is not so orderly).

So what i want to know is does anyone have a suggestion about the
situation we should avoid in kernel programming, especially in real 
time module programming, such as the mem allocation, etc. I think this
will increase the stability of the RT system based on RT-Linux.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, thanks for your reply. 

I have use ioremap realize the share memory in rt kernel.
Anyway, I think it's better to use ioremap in kernel mode, since we can 
visit the physics directly. (see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/IO-mapping.txt)

Hi, everyone:

I have a question about the share memory use mmap. (in rtlinux-2.2)
I use the example in mmap, but what i want to know is is there is a 
limit of the size of share memory, for when i try to map a region
about 1000 int, in the kernel module the computer always dead.

Following is the program i use.

===
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

//DATA * start;
int *start;
size_t length = 1000;
#define BASE_ADDRESS (96*0x10) 
//96Mb I have reserve the left 32Mb in lilo.conf

int init_module(void )
{
int i;

int fd = open("/dev/mem", O_RDWR);
if (fd < 0) {
rtl_printf("failed to open /dev/mem\n");
return -1;
}
start = (int *)mmap(0,length*sizeof(int),PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_SHARED,fd,BASE_ADDRESS);
if (start == (int *) -1) {
rtl_printf("failed to map /dev/mem\n");
return -1;
}
rtl_printf("%p\n",start);
for (i = 0; i < 1000; i++) {
rtl_printf ("%d\t",i);
start[i]=i;
rtl_printf ("%d\n", start[i]);
}
return 0;
}

void cleanup_module(void )
{
   munmap(start, length);
}

#ifndef MODULE 

int main(void)
{
if (init_module() == 0) {
cleanup_module();
}
return 0;
}
#endif
===

If i run this program in module, then the computer is dead.
If i run in user program, it's ok.

Anyone have some some suggestion about this?

Thanks in anvance.

Hi, everyone:

I'm use linux2.2.14+rtlinux2.2 with only one CPU.

I'm trying to write a rt_driver for my camac 2915 pci device, first i just 
realize a open and a close interface (both only print out a open or close 
message). In my init_module, i use some pci routine to get the parameter 
of the 2915, print out. i use rtl_register_chrdev to register the 
rtdriver, then when i try to open the device in my another module, it 
just fail. Attach with the driver, can anyone give me some advice.

Thanks in anvance.

[rtl] Bus Frenquency

2000-03-16 Thread Zhixu Liu


After install thr rtai, i found there is no bus frequency when i type 
dmesg, the configuration of my PC is:

Dell OptiPlex GX1 with PIII 500, UP. 
No APIC ( What's APIC?)

And when i run latency_callibration, the data display are all <0. What is 
this mean?

Thanks very much.

[rtl] Interrupt Driven RT Task

2000-03-14 Thread Zhixu Liu

Hi, everyone:

I have seen the example of RT task, and found they are almost timer 
driven, but i want my rt task interrupt driven, for the interrupt is not 
periodic, does anyone have some idea about this.

I don't know if i register the interrupt handler in the diver, does it 
mean whenever there is a interrupt, the driver will response it? If so, 
how can i active my rt task?

Thanks.

Re: [rtl] How to use the Real-Time interrupt?

2000-03-13 Thread Zhixu Liu



I have looked the example of rt_com, but it need to modify the driver, 
this is not easy, i want to know whether there is some method which i 
needn't modify the driver, or just do a little patch to the driver.

[rtl] How to use the Real-Time interrupt?

2000-03-12 Thread Zhixu Liu


Hi, everyone:

I'm working on a realtime DAQ system. I want my realtime task work whenever 
the hardware generate a interrupt, then i can read the data into computer, 
so i want know how to intergerate this realtime interrupt to the realtime 
task, for the driver of the hardware has realize the interrupt, i don't 
know whether i should change the driver's interrupt routine. It's best 
someone can give a example of the program or a framework.

Thanks in advance.

Does it mean i should change the driver of 2915, for the original driver 
of 2915 have a interrupt handler, should i replace it with 
rtl_request_irq(...)?

Thanks a lot.

[rtl] About rtl2.2

2000-02-25 Thread Zhixu Liu

Does anyone install the rtl2.2 for linux 2.2.14.

I download it, but find it without the option of hard real time support
when i try to compile the kernel.

What's wrong with the kernelpatch?

[rtl] About interrupt

2000-02-25 Thread Zhixu Liu

Hi, everyone:

I am working on a DAQ with CAMAC, and i prepare to put the task of get 
the data from CAMAC crate into a real time task.

The drive of my camac carte controller 3922 with PCI 2915 was written, 
and it has realize the interrupt (in normal linux), and now i want the real 
time task will work only after a interrupt of the camac. What should i do 
to associate this interrupt with the real time task.

What's the meaning of rtl_request_irq(...)?

Thanks.
