Hello USB developer list We are using the RTAI patched kernel for hard-real time scheduling of tasks. When USB is enabled in BIOS and when making use of a USB keyboard and mouse we get unacceptable jitter in the otherwise rock-solid scheduling provided by a RTAI kernel. I was hoping someone can shed some light on what is causing this problem.
RTAI provides its scheduling accuracy in part by trapping all normal Linux interrupts. I am guessing that the USB system is producing interrupts that RTAI can not trap. It appears that there are interrupts generated by the USB system that function at a level below the usual Linux interrupt handling system. Is this true and if so why is it necessary?
