I hope that i can steal enough of your precious time to get your attention for a new patch that adds hard real time support to the linux kernel (worst case interrupt response time below 5 microseconds): The proposed "real time interrupt patch" enables the linux kernel for hard-real-time applications such as data aquisition and control loops by adding priorities to interrupts and spinlocks. The following document will describe the patch in detail and how to install it: http://home.t-online.de/home/Bernhard_Kuhn/rtirq/20040108/README The patch and a demo application can be downloaded from: http://home.t-online.de/home/Bernhard_Kuhn/rtirq/20040108/rtirq-20040108.tgz Comments are highly appreciated! best regards Bernhard Kuhn, Senior Software Engineer, Metrowerks - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
