NAME

       rtapi_slab.h - RTAPI wrappers for linux kernel functionality

SYNTAX

       #include <rtapi_slab.h>

       void *rtapi_kmalloc(size_t size, gfp_t g);

       void *rtapi_kzalloc(size_t size, gfp_t g);

       void *rtapi_krealloc(size_t size, gfp_t g);

       void rtapi_kfree(void *);

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_device_register  always
       succeeds)

REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS

       Call  only  from  within init/cleanup code, not from realtime tasks.  This function is not
       available from user (non-realtime) code.

RETURN VALUE

       As in Linux.
