Hi, I have looked through a lot of the documentation but I have not found the answer to this: 1-)can the new linux kernel be configured to handle real-time applications? 2-)if so, what kind of context switching period is it able to acheive *without* going inside the kernel code and changing the basic values of the internal clocking mechanism. 3-)Is there a concerted effort by the kernel programers to acheive the POSIX.4 standard for providing programmers with a library of standard real-time system calls as, described in the book "Programming for the Real World: POSIX.4" by B.O. Gallmeister in the O'Reilley series. 4-)anyone has experience they want to share about compiling a *very small* linux kernel to handle real time applications?
I've been looking all over for this info, and I just can't find a thing. I really hope I did not offend the etiquette of this list. Best regards, Claude Lacoursiere.
