NAME

       rtapi_byteorder.h - RTAPI wrappers for linux kernel functionality

SYNTAX

       #include <rtapi_byteorder.h>

       RTAPI_BIG_ENDIAN
              Defined to 1 if the platform is big-endian, 0 otherwise

       RTAPI_LITTLE_ENDIAN
              Defined to 1 if the platform is little-endian, 0 otherwise

       RTAPI_FLOAT_BIG_ENDIAN
              Defined to 1 if the platform double-precision value is big-endian, 0 otherwise.

DESCRIPTION

       In kernel space, each rtapi_xxx or RTAPI_XXX identifier is mapped to the underlying kernel
       functionality, if available.

       In userspace, or in kernels where the  underlying  functionality  is  not  provided  by  a
       kernel,   generally   another   implementation--possibly  with  reduced  functionality--is
       provided.  (For example, the userspace implementation for rtapi_byteorder_register  always
       succeeds)

REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS

       May be used at any time.

RETURN VALUE

       As in Linux.
