Has anybody has success using DMA transfers in RTLinux? If so, could you please send me the relevant snippet(s) from your code? I am needing to transfer data to and from A/D and D/A cards from within RTlinux. However, I am finding that each inw/inb/outb call has (relatively speaking) a huge overhead with respect to the rest of my code. So, I am trying to free up the CPU so that I will be able to maintain high throughput. Unfortunately, my DMA code does not seem to work, and I am trying to figure out if it is my code, the cards, or the cards' documentation. Any help in this matter will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, -- Edgar ------------------------------------------------------- Edgar F.
