Hi, I am a student and newbie to RTLinux and I am using free version of RTLinux. I am using linux kernel 2.4.20 for a small networking project. I divert the linux network packets from netfilter post route hooks to my kernel module and add my own ethernet addresses in the eth header and sends the packet out by calling dev_queue_xmit() at a precise time interval . Now I want to achieve the same with RTLinux. My questions are 1) Can I access skbuff pointer in Linux kernel module and as well as RTLinux process at the same time? If yes how to achieve the synchronization between these two? If not, can it be achieved by calling alloc_skb() in RTLinux process and copying the original buffer through FIFOs? 2) How can we achieve synchronization between my linux kernel module and my RTLinux module? 3) Can I access ethernet driver functions (like dev_queue_xmit) from RTLinux module? 4) I have a softIRQ in my linux kernel module. Does it work seemly with RTLinux module? Thanks & Regards, GVS __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
