The rtl_nfifo module has the same functions as rtl_fifo module plus
named fifos which basically allow you to create and reference RT fifos
using a name instead of a device number. There is a brief write up on
how to use these named fifos in rtl/fifos/NAMED_FIFOS. The only
differences are in the creation and destruction of the fifos, otherwise
they operate the same as ordinary RT fifos.
