Re: [rtl] fifo question

is it ok to use in kernel module (non-rt) the following for writing/reading fifos (to comunicate with rt task) ?

// ...
  struct msg rt_msg;
  rtf_create(FIFO, sizeof(rt_msg));

  rt_msg.cmd=1;
  if ( rtf_put(FIFO, &rt_msg, sizeof(rt_msg)) != sizeof(rt_msg) ) {
    printk("FIFO_CTL write failed, terminating\n");
    return(-EINVAL);
  }

  if( rtf_get(FIFO, &rt_msg, sizeof(rt_msg)) != sizeof(rt_msg) ){
    printk("FIFO read failed, terminating\n");
    return(-EINVAL);
  }
  printk("got from rttsak: %d\n", rt_msg.cmd);
// ...

rgds, 
Denis.
