So 2 questions are:
1) howto FP in kernel
kernel_fpu_begin();
c = d * 3.14;
kernel_fpu_end();
Yup, I know about this possibility, but this is only x86 specific?!
unfortunately this only works for MMX not for real fpu (due to exception
handling uglies)
concludes it's not multiplatform at all... For that reasen I (maybe) want some
"protocol" for communication with US, where I can easily compute it.
Another way could be rtai (there is FP implemented IIRC), but it means having
out-of-kernel driver.
thanks,
