 * EtherCAT master application interface.
 *
 * \defgroup ApplicationInterface EtherCAT Application Interface
 *
 * EtherCAT interface for realtime applications. This interface is designed
 * for realtime modules that want to use EtherCAT. There are functions to
 * request a master, to map process data, to communicate with slaves via CoE
 * and to configure and activate the bus.
 *
 * Changes in Version 1.4:
 *
 * - Replaced ec_slave_t with ec_slave_config_t, separating the bus
 *   configuration from the actual slaves. Therefore, renamed
 *   ecrt_master_get_slave() to ecrt_master_slave_config().
 * - Replaced slave address string with alias and position values. See
 *   ecrt_master_slave_config().
 * - Removed ecrt_master_get_slave_by_pos(), because it is no longer
 *   necessary due to alias/position addressing.
 * - Added ec_slave_config_state_t for the new method
 *   ecrt_slave_config_state().
 * - Process data memory for a domain can now be allocated externally. This
 *   offers the possibility to use a shared-memory region. Therefore,
 *   added the domain methods ecrt_domain_size() and
 *   ecrt_domain_external_memory().
 * - Pdo entry registration functions do not return a process data pointer,
 *   but an offset in the domain's process data. In addition, an optional bit
 *   position can be requested. This was necessary for the external domain
 *   memory. An additional advantage is, that the returned offset is
 *   immediately valid. If the domain's process data is allocated internally,
 *   the start address can be retrieved with ecrt_domain_data().
 * - Replaced ecrt_slave_pdo_mapping/add/clear() with
 *   ecrt_slave_config_pdo_assign_add() to add a Pdo to a sync manager's Pdo
 *   assignment and ecrt_slave_config_pdo_mapping_add() to add a Pdo entry to a
 *   Pdo's mapping. ecrt_slave_config_pdos() is a convenience function
 *   for both, that uses the new data types ec_pdo_info_t and
 *   ec_pdo_entry_info_t. Pdo entries, that are mapped with these functions
 *   can now immediately be registered, even if the bus is offline.
 * - Renamed ec_bus_status_t, ec_master_status_t to ec_bus_state_t and
 *   ec_master_state_t, respectively. Renamed ecrt_master_get_status() to
 *   ecrt_master_state(), for consistency reasons.
 * - Added ec_domain_state_t and #ec_wc_state_t for a new output parameter
 *   of ecrt_domain_state(). The domain state object does now contain
 *   information, if the process data was exchanged completely.
 * - Former "Pdo registration" meant Pdo entry registration in fact, therefore
 *   renamed ec_pdo_reg_t to ec_pdo_entry_reg_t and ecrt_domain_register_pdo()
 *   to ecrt_slave_config_reg_pdo_entry().
 * - Removed ecrt_domain_register_pdo_range(), because it's functionality can
 *   be reached by specifying an explicit Pdo assignment/mapping and
 *   registering the mapped Pdo entries.
 * - Added an Sdo access interface, working with Sdo requests. These can be
 *   scheduled for reading and writing during realtime operation.
 * - Exported ecrt_slave_config_sdo(), the generic Sdo configuration function.
 * - Removed the bus_state and bus_tainted flags from ec_master_state_t.
