I have heard conflicting reports as to the
existence of real-time processing extensions in
AIX. Items of interest would include things like
non-preemptable processes or asynchronous I/O.
Do such facilities exist? If so, what constructs
are available? Can somebody cite the relevant
piece of documentation?
Related questions: Does anybody wish to comment
on the the general suitability of an IBM RS6000
workstation and AIX for real-time signal
processing applications? Is writing an AIX device
driver significantly different from writing a
driver under more standard flavors of Unix?
Please e-mail replies; I'll post a summary if
there's interest.
Thanks..Y
