Hi all ! I'm running a 2.6.14 linux on 96 MHz MIPS processor. I need to cope with a device that sends a byte of data every 50 microsecond through an UART with no FIFO. What would be the best (well, the least horrible) way to handle that ? The good point is that I know when the communication starts. One of the (horrible) idea I have : to freeze the system so that it deals only with the communication interrupts. But the communications can be quite long (under some conditions about one second), so I don't know what could be the consequences. Any idea, any help, any "good luck" will be welcomed !
