10 * as it is intended that in the future a number of different software ring

12 * different applications.
14 * This particular one was designed for a data capture application where it was
15 * particularly important that no userspace reads would interrupt the capture
16 * process. To this end the ring is not locked during a read.
18 * Comments on this buffer design welcomed. It's far from efficient and some of
19 * my understanding of the effects of scheduling on this are somewhat limited.
20 * Frankly, to my mind, this is the current weak point in the industrial I/O
21 * patch set.
