rtapi_device - RTAPI wrappers for linux kernel functionality
#include
<rtapi_device.h>
struct rtapi_device;
int rtapi_dev_set_name(struct rtapi_device* dev, const char*
name, ...);
int rtapi_device_register(struct rtapi_device* dev);
int rtapi_device_unregister(struct rtapi_device* dev);
In kernel space, each rtapi_xxx or RTAPI_XXX identifier is mapped to the underlying kernel functionality, if available.
In userspace, or in kernels where the underlying functionality is not provided by a kernel, generally another implementation—possibly with reduced functionality—is provided. (For example, the userspace implementation for rtapi_device_register always succeeds)
Typically, these functions may be called from realtime init/cleanup code.
As in Linux.
