Hi,

thank you both for answering me about RTAI performances, the article
was interesting too!

I was really looking for the possibility to reach 1ms or less in
terms of interrupt interval and from your answers it seems we can.

I'll try something and I'll probably need your help again...

Thanks,
Marco

(not as module), you shouldn't have any problem using the standard
kernel drivers such as USB or network stack. They will be not real-
time though. You can then implement real-time tasks using the RTAI
API for user or kernel space. Kernel space is more deterministic. You
can use external hardware to generate interrupts which can be served
with <50uS latency in real-time context. If using the timer and
periodic tasks, jitter and latency should be <10% (hard real-time
rate) for periods >500us in about 99% of the samples. You can try
using shorter periods, such as 100us or less, but keep in mind it is
likely jitter/latency will be >10% for about 20% of the samples (soft
real-time then), depending on system load. These are the data I
collected about 2/3 years ago - not sure if they are still valuable.

But it does the job on ARM. This is a good resource:
