rt_preempt kernel 4.4/4.8

Post by giorgiox » Mon 25. Sep 2017, 23:27

Download the driver and not see anythings that show me a rt_preempt driver .... but is possible to use PCAN-miniPCIe FD Dual Channel / single channel in rt-spaces using rt_preempt?

In salve mode witch type of realtime timing is possible to set?

Hi,

Running pcan in RT mode can be obtained by 3 ways, whether you install a RT_PREEMPT patch, a Xenomai 2.6.x patch or a RTAI patch on your Linux host:

For the first one, you have nothing special to do with pcan: you build the driver as usual.
For Xenomai 2.6, you have to build the driver with "$ make RT=XENOMAI"
For RTAI, you have to build the driver with "$ make RT=RTAI".

Regards,

Stéphane
