Greetings again,
Xenomai 3.0.6, armv7, imx6, imx_uart rtdm driver
I've seen many postings about this, and about symbol wrapping, etc,
etc. I'm still
not understanding something very basic here, I'm sure.
When I run a program built with --alchemy (no --posix) skin, and I
execute these lines
of code (error checking is omitted here but being done in the real
program and not failing):
#define SER_BAUD 9600 /**< Baud rate for SYNC interface */
#define SYNC_DEVICE "rtser0" /**< serial device used for SYNC */
static const struct rtser_config sync_config = {
.config_mask = 0xFFFF,
.baud_rate = SER_BAUD,
.parity = RTSER_NO_PARITY,
.data_bits = RTSER_8_BITS,
.stop_bits = RTSER_1_STOPB,
.handshake = RTSER_NO_HAND,
.fifo_depth = RTSER_FIFO_DEPTH_1,
.rx_timeout = RTSER_TIMEOUT_NONE,
.tx_timeout = 1e9,
.event_timeout = 1e9,
.timestamp_history = RTSER_DEF_TIMESTAMP_HISTORY,
.event_mask = RTSER_EVENT_RXPEND,
};
fd = __RT(open)(SYNC_DEVICE,0) ;
err = __RT(ioctl)(fd, RTSER_RTIOC_SET_CONFIG, &sync_config);
I get this traceback (once only per system boot):

If I do not execute the ioctl call, and I instead call:
err = __RT(write)(fd,"x",1) ;
I do not get the traceback, and the write is successful. This tells me
that ioctl() path
has some kind of check in it that the write() path doesn't have. Is the
detection of a
cross-domain call something that an RTDM driver is doing or is this
something at a higher
level making these checks?
What's more, I've seen many comments that this is a problem scenario,
and that it will put
the system into a "bad state". But all of my testing says that this is
completely benign
and everything is working as I expect it to. It can't be both ways -
which way is it, and
why?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
