rtapi_io3rtapi
Rtapi wrappers for linux kernel functionality
Usage
#include <rtapi_io.h>
unsigned char rtapi_inb(unsigned short int port);
unsigned short rtapi_inw(unsigned short int port);
unsigned int rtapi_inl(unsigned short int port);
unsigned void rtapi_outb(unsigned char value, unsigned short int port);
unsigned void rtapi_outw(unsigned short value, unsigned short int port);
unsigned void rtapi_inl(unsigned int value, unsigned short int port);
int rtapi_ioperm(unsigned long from, unsigned long num, int turn_on);
unsigned void rtapi_outl(unsigned int value, unsigned short int port);
Overview
In kernel space, each rtapi_xxx or RTAPI_XXX identifier is mapped to the underlying kernel functionality, if available.
In userspace, or in kernels where the underlying functionality is not provided by a kernel, generally another implementation--possibly with reduced functionality--is provided. (For example, the userspace implementation for rtapi_device_register and the kernel space implementation of rtapi_ioperm always succeeds)
Realtime considerations
Call from init/cleanup code and from realtime tasks. These functions will cause illegal instruction exceptions in non-realtime components, as well as in uspace rtapi_app when it is not setuid root.
Return value
As in Linux.
