@onegray could you please elaborate more about these performance issues? Is this because of multiple copying? cpu2 wifi buffer -> ipcc memory -> cpu1 circ buffer -> cpu1 user space app? circ buf part can be optimized out by disabling CONFIG_IPCC_BUFFERED. Too many interrupts? This also could be optimized by increasing IPCC memory and trigger interrupt once specific threshold of memory is occupied. This could be done with some open flags, and ioctl(TRIGGER_TX_TRANSACTION) or similar. We could also do some black magic by exposing pointer to raw IPCC memory via ioctl() so userapp could work directly on IPCC memory without copying anything. But this is no unix way. I wrote this driver with ease of use in mind, and character device is the easiest I could think of:) I really don't know what is the performance of the driver. I am yet to see it when testing with passing lora traffic through it. I'm fine with renaming this to ipcc-serial though. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
