[etherlab-dev] Ethercat vs RTAI-LXRT

[Malte Lutz]

Hello,

i was wondering if it is possible to run hardrealtime in userspace with 
RTAI-LXRT and ethercat?!

 From the Ethercat Master Architecture it seems to me that, whenever i 
use userspace tasks, only the standard ethernet driver would always be 
used. Because of this and because of this link: 
http://lists.etherlab.org/pipermail/etherlab-users/2010/000829.html   i 
would say it is not possible to use ethercat from Userspace with LXRT, 
except one would write some new driver.

Can someone confirm me this?


regards

Malte
