Subject: Linux Multi-Core Utilities 1.2 Released
From: Ralph Lange <[email protected]>

All,

I just uploaded release 1.2 of the mcoreutils module, i.e. Real-Time Utilities for EPICS IOCs on Multi-Core Linux.

Apart from fixes in the documentation [1], this version adds iocShell calls to lock a running IOC's virtual memory into RAM, to avoid swapping and page faults, which would introduce delays and non-deterministic timing behaviour. Thanks to Dirk Zimoch (PSI) for contributing his code.

The mcoreutils module is hosted by the EPICS Applications project on SourceForge. [2]
It requires Linux, and EPICS Base 3.15 (trunk, revision 12372 of 20 Sep 2012 or later).

Any contributions and ideas are very welcome!

Cheers,
~Ralph
