I can do that but Linux is not an ROS afaik. Even though i dont have strict timing requirements , its like a sensor on i2c(producer) and then another consumer tasks which not only feeds on this data but also tell the i2c sensor by sending some commands to it. > Have you tried Linux RTOS extension (again I'm no expert and haven't > tried them but you can look at Xenomai)? I will explore this.I was thinking if i can use Posix thread to have two tasks one reading sensors and another sending commands to it.But then again i am confused if using a posix thread full fills the requirement of RTOS. The reason I want to use RTOS is , I am porting a Microcontroller code using RTOS (free RTOS) to Linux and afaik FreeRTOS doesnt work on Linux. > FreeRTOS is a standalone OS and depending on your system there may be > an example running on your architecture in parallel of your embedded > Linux.
