Rtllnux: Aditya Kumar Pattnayak Rollno: Cs200117263 Technical Seminar

This document presents a technical seminar on RTLinux given by Aditya Kumar Pattnayak at the National Institute of Science and Technology. It defines real-time systems and introduces RTLinux as a modified Linux kernel that supports hard real-time tasks by running Linux as the lowest priority thread. The document describes the architecture of RTLinux, its versions, basic APIs, and examples of projects using RTLinux for applications like space robotics and chemical process control. It concludes that RTLinux allows real-time tasks to communicate with Linux processes and take advantage of Linux services.

WHAT IS RTLINUX
RTLinux is a hard real-time operating system that
runs Linux as its lowest priority execution thread .
RTLinux, originally developed at the New Mexico
Institute of Technology .
It is an open-source product.
RTLinux-specific components are released under
the GPL .
Non-GPL versions of the RTL components are
available from FSMLabs.

WHY RTLINUX
Linux kernel is completely preemptible.
The kernel has the ability to suspend any userlevel task.
Linux kernel modified to support hard realtime .

RTLinux
THE BASIC API
1. RTLinux programs modeled as modules which
are loaded into the Linux kernel space.
2. main() function is replaced by a pair of
init/cleanup functions:
int init_module( );
void cleanup_module( );
3. A filename.c file is converted to a module by
compiling the file.
4. Then use insmod or rmmod command to insert
or remove the module into kernel.

STRUCTURE OF MODULES
CREATING POSIX THREADS
FUNCTIONS
pthread_create(3) :- To create a new thread.
pthread_attr_getcpu_np(3):- getting general attributes

CONCLUSION
Realtime tasks in RTLlNUX can communicate
with Linux processes via shared memory or a file-like
interface. Thus, real-time applications can make use
of all the powerful, non-real-time services of Linux,
including: Networking ,Graphics, Windowing systems
,Data analysis packages ,Linux device drivers, and
Standard POSIX API.
