note that's using the master stack only.

I don't use the EtherLAB suite. There could be an issue if it requests the master and its internal loop doesn't "send_ext". Actually ecrt_master_send_ext isn't exported by cdev so that could indeed be a problem.
Can you try starting the master only?

Ok, so I made some progress, I think. I was able to build as a kernel
module and install the module. So long as the virtual interface (eoe0s7)
is not up, the program brings the network into Operation and scans at
100Hz.

Then, I issue # ifconfig eoe0s7 up

About 20 seconds later, the entire system hangs and I need to reboot.

In the kernel log, I am seeing this: BUG: scheduling while atomic:
swapper/0/0x10000100

My understanding is that occurred when using semaphores when spinlocks
should have been used in the master callbacks. I changed over the
program to spin locks, but the same thing occurred.

I'm not sure what I could try other than falling back to 1.4.0 and
seeing if I'm just running into a stable-1.5 bug. I'm following the tty
examples in the directory very closely. Beyond changing the hardware
declarations to match the network, it's the same program.

Does anyone have an EoE example they could share?

Thanks!

    Hello Thomas,

    it might be a simple network config problem: the IP address of your
    virtual interface shouldn't be the same as your field device. Try
    assigning it something different on the same subnet, e.g.
    192.168.127.1/8 <http://192.168.127.1/8> and check your routing
    table is correct

    Regards

        Hello! I'm new to using EtherLAB. I've got the master
installed as a
        service, and it's communicating to the network fine. However,
        I'm having
        trouble getting the EoE feature up and running.

        I have an Ethernet device in the field with the IP Address
        192.168.127.254 that I need to communicate with through a web
        browser. I
        have an EL6601 that the master is able to see fine. When I put
the
        network into Operation, the RUN light goes steady.

        I'm running on Ubuntu 10.04. I have not installed any real-time
        extensions; I'm just working with EtherLAB right now.

        If I execute:
        # ethercat eoe

        I get a listing for eoe0s7 as a virtual interface, and that it
        is down.


        So, I created in /etc/network the file ifcg-eoe0s7 with the
        following
        contents:

        IPADDRESS=192.168.127.254/8 <http://192.168.127.254/8>
        <http://192.168.127.254/8>
        STARTMODE=auto

        I restarted the computer.

        To raise the interface, I enter:

        # ifconfig eoe0s7 up

        The virtual interface goes up, and the LINK light on the
EL6601 goes
        solid green.

        However, I'm unable to ping 192.168.127.254, or get the pages it
        serves
        to pop up. So, I did more reading, and I think I need to do some
        function calls in the program. So, I added to my test program:


        void send_callback(void *cb_data)
        {
              ec_master_t *m = (ec_master_t *) cb_data;
              sem_wait(&mutex);
              ecrt_master_send_ext(m);
              sem_post(&mutex);
        }


/*****************************__******************************__******************/


        void receive_callback(void *cb_data)
        {
              ec_master_t *m = (ec_master_t *) cb_data;
              sem_wait(&mutex);
              ecrt_master_receive(m);
              sem_post(&mutex);
        }

        int
        main(int argc, char **argv)
        {

        ...

           // setup callbacks for EoE
           ecrt_master_callbacks(master, send_callback,
        receive_callback, master);

        ...

        }



        However, it won't build:

        durability.o: In function `send_callback':
        /home/tbj/srcroot/durability/__src/durability.c:279: undefined
        reference
        to `ecrt_master_send_ext'
        durability.o: In function `main':
        /home/tbj/srcroot/durability/__src/durability.c:321: undefined
        reference
        to `ecrt_master_callbacks'


        This is my makefile:

        CC = gcc
        ETHERCAT_TOPDIR = /home/tbj/srcroot/ethercat
        CFLAGS = -I$(ETHERCAT_TOPDIR)/include -g -O2
        LDFLAGS = -L$(ETHERCAT_TOPDIR)/lib/.libs -lethercat -lrt

        OBJECTS = durability.o

        durability.exe : $(OBJECTS)
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(OBJECTS) $(LDFLAGS) -o durability.exe

        %.o : %.c
        $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $<


        Can anyone tell me what I'm missing? I feel like I'm one step
        away from
        having this working, but I can't find anything else in any
        documentation
        that would lead me to the answer.

        Thanks in advance for any help.

        T
