I've gotten the char shm driver to work flawlessly as suggested, and am now looking into dumping the rest of the SysV IPC legacy code in the linuxcnc code base and replace it by shm_open/mmap
reading up on the Xenomai Posix skin a bit late (ahem) it occurs to me the best solution would have been to use the Xenomai Posix skin throughout, kernel and userland, dump my little driver, and be done with it the catch, of course, is that the Xenomai Posix skin is available on, well, Xenomai only, which leaves out the RTAI and vanilla kernels cases, and any other flavor downstream reading up on ksrc/skins/posix/shm.c it occurs to me it isnt exactly a copy & paste job getting that to run without the Xenomai environment so I'm really just asking so I dont write off an option prematurely... this is whacky, right? - Michael Am 11.04.2013 um 21:28 schrieb Gilles Chanteperdrix <[email protected]>: > Of course, this is where the down-side is, you will have to maintain > your little kernel module with kernel version changes. .. > > > -- > Gilles. _______________________________________________ Xenomai mailing list [email protected] http://www.xenomai.org/mailman/listinfo/xenomai
