The ring buffer should only ensure asynchronuous access (covering latency, generated by the non-real-time Linux system).

How do I manage this? > I work in several projects with the ring buffer mode of libpruio <http://beagleboard.org/project/libpruio/>. It always works with the default 256 kB setting. Check out the example rb_file <http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22501&start=105#p205926>. Anyway, the PRUSS need not use the driver memory. You can allocate memory in the ARM process, compute the absolute address and pass it (and the memory block length) to the PRUSS, in order to write to that memory area.
