* 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.
