Hi peoples, This could be a stupid question and I sincerely hope not. I'm not a coder -- I'm a EE signal/systems kid who's picked up the skill lightly over the years out of neccessity (never really did it as a hobby often either). Not to say I don't like coding -- just never had the time to explore it so much in my free time.
ANYWAYS. Onto the question -- it's geared towards those who work with xilkernel. I have the whole pthread/mutex/semaphore thing down, but the shared-memory API documentation is...lacking. I know how to instantiate it and call the functions, etc., but how do I write and read data from it!?
There is a data struct, but it does not contain a payload/buffer -- just some basic information about the shared memory. I've also googled around quite a bit for xilkernel shared memory stuff, but with absolutely no luck finding anything tangible that could help me out.
So -- any xilkernel coders out there who've worked with shared mem who might be able to help me? Thanks for your time all!
