Jean-Sacha,

I have been using that version of mbuff for a long time (maybe a year).  I
always use multiple areas in memory to keep things separate.  I have had no
problems with it.  

I suspect you may have written past the end of an array or something.
Accidentally putting the wrong value in pointers can generate this kind of
problem as well.  

One way I use to trouble shoot this kind of thing is to use kprintf to show
me the beginning address of the areas and their total byte size.  This helps
me figure out if pointers are going beyond the area.

Regards,

Rich

Hello,

I have a simple question concerning the mbuff driver for shared memory:
Is it problematic to use more than one shared memory area at the same
time? I had some dubios system-crashes in the last time and I think it
began when I first used two different areas of shared memory at the same
time. I do this so that the code may be easier to understand - nothing else.


I would be grateful for every comment, Melon


P.S.: I now use rtlinux v3.0 and the mbuff driver that comes with it.
