9 Important things to do: |
9 * Release 1.3: |
|
10 - Remove ecrt_master_run(). Make master FSM run in process context instead. |
|
11 - Separate slave objects from configurations. Make bus dynamic in OPERATION |
|
12 mode. |
|
13 - New sysfs structure with slaves, configurations and links. |
|
14 - Remove addressing scheme "X:Y". |
|
15 - Tool to set aliases. |
|
16 - Remove ugly ec_slave_is_coupler() and ec_slave_has_subbus(). |
|
17 - Add statistics object. |
|
18 - SDO dictionary and -access in operation mode. |
|
19 - SDO write access in sysfs. |
|
20 - Speed up IDLE-FSM through fast mode with schedule(). |
10 |
21 |
11 * Read AL Status Code with AL Control Response (if possible?) |
22 * Future features: |
12 * Coupling of EoE handlers before configuring slaves. |
23 - e100 driver. |
13 (avoiding duplicate configuration) |
24 - Distributed clocks. |
14 * Implement all EtherCAT commands |
25 - Read dynamic PDO mapping from SDO dictionary (see can-cia.org: cia301ds4). |
15 * Determine number of frames the NIC can handle |
26 - Redundancy with 2 network adapters. |
16 * Implement e100 driver |
27 - Interface for alternative PDO mapping. |
|
28 |
|
29 * Smaller changes: |
|
30 - Simplify FSMs with <state>_enter() functions. |
|
31 - Rename "sysconfig" file to "sysconfig/ethercat". |
|
32 - Dynamic creation of EoE handlers. |
|
33 - Output intermediate results during lsec. |
|
34 - State change FSM: Follow spontaneous state changes. |
|
35 |
|
36 * Less important changes: |
|
37 - Implement all EtherCAT datagram types. |
|
38 - File access over EtherCAT (FoE). |
|
39 - Allow VLAN tagging. |
|
40 - Determine number of frames the NIC can handle. |

20 Not-so-important things to do: |
|
21 |
|
22 * Calculate bus topology |
|
23 * File access over EtherCAT (FoE) |
|
24 * Allow VLAN tagging |
