AM6411: RT-linux

Part Number: AM6411

Tool/software:

Hello,

I am a beginner on Linux and I am experimenting on writing some example application that will make use of rt-linux but I cannot find any relevant example about it.

Should I base my code on pthread.h or is there some other api to use for rt-linux based threads?
While browsing online I see many examples based on for example rtl.h, rtl_sched.h and so on, but I cannot find the relevant headers in the sdk.

I am using Processor SDK 10.00.07.04

Please advise.

Thank you in advance,
Paolo

  • Hi Paolo,

    The RT Linux changes the scheduling and preemption in the Linux kernel, it doesn't change anything in Linux user space programming. So you basically just write your Linux multi-threads program as usual.
