| |
Yesterday I tried kernel 2.1.61 too see the improved select of 2.1 working.
I used xntpd (3-5.91) to monitor my DCF77 reference clock receiver (The software uses selects with a short timeout around 1 second, and the process runs real-time priority SCHED_FIFO).
The effect is that the software receives a few (around 5) characters from the serial port every second (as it should be) and then there's a pause of some seconds.
I can't explain it. Is this a well-known bug in 2.1.61?
