Gene' mail footer refers to a box of ammo being necessary at times; I defer teutonic for now, but I honestly admit that I am running low on patience with the management habits of this project. > I defer to those who have had their hands inside hal functions.

Noting we dont sport anything like that I will start a Wiki page which lists ticked off items, and references to the discussion. The other issue is: in the minimum this requires a deprecation warning in the manual, and hal.h . The obvious place would be http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man3/intro.3rtapi.html which is referred to from http://www.linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/man/man3/intro.3hal.html. The proposed text is (something similar for hal.h): ---- REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS HAL functions shall be used only from User code, and Init/cleanup code, as outlined in intro(3rtapi). While it may be currently possible to call some of the HAL functions from Realtime code, this feature will be deprecated and cannot be relied upon in future revisions. ---- I will push this later this week. - Michael ps: any ideas to make comp barf if it encounters a hal_* call in a thread function are welcome. > > Regards, > Kent > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
