* This code is deliberately kept separate from the main industrialio I/O core
|
|
* as it is intended that in the future a number of different software ring
|
|
* buffer implementations will exist with different characteristics to suit
|
|
* different applications.
|
|
*
|
|
* This particular one was designed for a data capture application where it was
|
|
* particularly important that no userspace reads would interrupt the capture
|
|
* process. To this end the ring is not locked during a read.
|
|
*
|
|
* Comments on this buffer design welcomed. It's far from efficient and some of
|
|
* my understanding of the effects of scheduling on this are somewhat limited.
|
|
* Frankly, to my mind, this is the current weak point in the industrial I/O
|
|
* patch set.
