NAME

rtapi_list - RTAPI wrappers for linux kernel functionality

SYNTAX

#include <rtapi_list.h>
struct rtapi_list_head;
void rtapi_list_add(struct rtapi_list_head*new_,
struct rtapi_list_head* head);
void rtapi_list_add_tail(struct rtapi_list_head* new_,
struct rtapi_list_head* head);
void rtapi_list_del(struct rtapi_list_head* entry);
void RTAPI_INIT_LIST_HEAD(struct rtapi_list_head* entry);
rtapi_list_for_each(pos, head) \{ ... }
rtapi_list_entry(ptr, type, member)

DESCRIPTION

In kernel space, each rtapi_xxx or RTAPI_XXX identifier is mapped to the underlying kernel functionality, if available.

In userspace, or in kernels where the underlying functionality is not provided by a kernel, generally another implementation—possibly with reduced functionality—is provided. (For example, the userspace implementation for rtapi_device_register always succeeds)

REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS

Call from init/cleanup code and from realtime tasks. These functions will cause illegal instruction exceptions in non-realtime components, as well as in uspace rtapi_app when it is not setuid root.

RETURN VALUE

As in Linux.
