- * This code is deliberately kept separate from the main industrialio I/O core
- * as it is intended that in the future a number of different software ring
- * buffer implementations will exist with different characteristics to suit
- * different applications.
- *
- * This particular one was designed for a data capture application where it was
- * particularly important that no userspace reads would interrupt the capture
- * process. To this end the ring is not locked during a read.
- *
- * Comments on this buffer design welcomed. It's far from efficient and some of
- * my understanding of the effects of scheduling on this are somewhat limited.
- * Frankly, to my mind, this is the current weak point in the industrial I/O
- * patch set.
