Hi

please note

pdserv i a library for linux user space usage.
It will not function under xenomai, because xenomai userspace is not equal linux userspace.

If you prefer user space you should use native linux.

Hi Andreas,

We're now thinking of making an Xenomai user-space application that directly uses the EtherCAT Master module.

To access the process data we want to integrate the PdServ library. Will this work under Xenomai?

Thanks

Dirk

Hello Dirk,

for only EtherCAT this will work of course. Please have a look at the devel branch.
There is experimental  support for rtdm in userspace.

I think the RTAI skin is not supported for future versions of xenomai, but i do not know exactly.

EtherLAB <=1.3 is prepared for kernal space usage. Xenomai does not like the Kernel mode.

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for the response.

We don't really have a special need for a dual kernel system. It's more like a constraint.

We are adding EtherCAT functionality to our customer's system which is Xenomai based.

I have read at different places that Xenomai supports an "RTAI skin". Shouldn't this work with Etherlab?

Hello

EtherLab <= 1.3 will not run under xenomai, because it is prepared for kernel space usage. But Xenomai has no math libraries for kernel space. So there is no chance.

Do you have a special need to use a dual kernel system.?

If not you can use the actual devel branch of etherlab >=2.0 which uses a preempt-rt kernel.

Best regards

Andreas

Hi,

I'm a little bit confused about the RTAI / Xenomai compatibility of Etherlab. Hopefully someone

can help me with this.

We have a Xenomai system where we want to add EtherCAT functionality. For this I want to

use the EtherCAT Master software and the Etherlab software together with Simulink RTW/Coder.

Installing the EtherCAT Master software was no problem. Etherlab requires RTAI sources and

a kernel patched for RTAI but our kernel is already patched for Xenomai, so is this going to work?

Thanks.
