Well, these hopefully make life easier, but they are _not_ really important.
What's important is the code itself, ... and the places where to find the code.
But, ... I am asking again wether we could agree on a formal specification where
to put the RT-Linux files needed after installation - that is the RT-Linux
modules and the RT-Linux headers needed to develop additional modules - RT-Linux
"applications".
Last time I got a few responses, to summarize up (from memory, sorry if I
forget some things):
It's kind of easy where to put the headers, it just needs to be defined. The
asm files can go with the Standard-Linux asm's into /usr/include/asm. (Well,
actually into /usr/src/linux/include/asm-i386/, but you don't have to know that,
that's what the sym-link in /usr/include is for :-)
The RT-Linux C headers should go into /usr/include/rtlinux/.
Any header should be referenced without any path in it - in RT-Linux base and
application code. (That will need some changes to the RT-Linux Makefiles + code
again, but it's easy, so I can do that.)
The modules should go into the current kernels module dir - that is
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/ usually, but on RedHat it needs some more
tweaking.
The RT-Linux distribution has to provide a make install target that does
exactly what is specified here - put the headers and modules where they belong.
One step further would be to put everything in the /usr/src/linux tree
initially and let make modules and make modules_install (from Standard Linux
Makefiles) do the job. This adds some complexity to the patch, but to me it
looks like a nice aim.
Greetings,
Jochen
