I can confirm that, by moving the PDO handling into the application,
things started working as expected. Here is the updated snippet:
https://gitlab.com/-/snippets/2155802
The shell script is now used only for bootstrapping the EL7047. All
0x8nnn:nn entries in the object dictionary seem to be stored in some
non-volatile memory (no idea this is customary or mandated by some
standard), so that script should be called only on new devices.
The manual handling of PDOs on the C side is really tedious and
error-prone, so I can understand Gavin's suggestion of trying to
configure as much as possible before `ethercat cstruct`, but I'm
confident some kind of abstraction is possible (see e.g. the
`SlaveLayout` struct in `el7047.c` for details).
Thank you again for your help.
Ciao.
