Hello Christoph,

I successfully managed to install the native driver in a 4.8 kernel. However in 
the configure command I used the flag: --with-e1000e-kernel=3.16, as this was 
the latest kernel regarding the e1000e driver, and it worked.
I didn't have any issues regarding connectivity. If someone else thinks that 
this isn't proper or I was wrong, we should discuss it further. I haven't been 
in the Xenomai dance just yet, as I know that there might be
some development cost and there could be other issues to consider 
(portability).  But as a matter of fact, if I would follow this path, I would 
use the Xenomai 3, as it is maintained nowadays.

Best regards,
Mike

P.S: Did you find any difference in the performance? I mean between the Xenomai 
2 and PREEMPT_RT patch. I would love to get an answer on that.

Hello Mike,

reffering to the last question on this list regarding a driver for the
RasPi 3 and kernel 4.x, which driver are you actually using? I thought
the native drivers don't work with newer kernels. I am currently using
the native driver for e1000e Intel cards on Debian Jessie (kernel 3.16)
and would like to upgrade to Debian Stretch (kernel 4.9).

Another question: Which branch of Xenomai did you use (Xenomai 2.x or
Xenomai 3.x)? I did some tests with Xenomai myself and it seemed the
master was ready to use with Xenomai 2 while it requires some
modifications for usage with Xenomai 3.

Best regards,
Christoph

I'm successfully using e1000e on Debian Stretch using the ported driver in the 
unofficial patchset.

Dear Sir,



Could you help me on Etherlab?

I have some questions on Etherlab.

I have install Etherlab and try to use Simulink and link sample function
block, but it can not RUN, seems something wrong.

 ??: cid:image005.jpg@01D3D0B1.0B28D310

But the same diagram and it is working on another Simulink platform. (see
below)

Is there something wrong?

 ??: cid:image006.jpg@01D3D0B1.0B28D310



The second question is see the red mark on below photo, is it meaning under
EtherCAT protocol?

If yes, why I can not find any EtherCAT library function block on the list?
Such as motor drive. (I would like to do motor drive control)

Or I need to download EtherCAT library function block at some where?

??: cid:image007.jpg@01D3D0B1.0B28D310





Best Regards,

Rex Lin
