POSIX and ELN KAV30 extention
Is the ELN KAV30 extention POSIX compliant, or is this question
irrelevant because of ... ?
What its all about are the KAV$... calls which we think are proper to
the KAV30 extention.
Can a KAV30$ call be replaced by a POSIX call ?
Thanks for taking the time to read and respond.

Hi Kris,
The KAV30 extensions are not POSIX compliant, the extensions are
specific to the KAV30 hardware. The KAV30 extensions consist of a number
of system services that allow applications to access VMEbus devices,
and to manipulate the KAV30's on-board devices (timers, realtime clock,
fifos, battery-backed up RAM etc.).
VAXELN V4.3 makes some of the POSIX 1003.1 (operating systems) and
1003.4 (realtime) functionality available to application developers, it
is therefore possible to develop POSIX compliant applications that will
run on the KAV30 using VAXELN V4.3 and V1,1 of the KAV30 software.
