.SH DESCRIPTION

\fBrtapi_init\fR sets up the RTAPI.  It must be called by any
module that intends to use the API, before any other RTAPI
calls.

\fImodname\fR can optionally point to a string that identifies
the module.  The string will be truncated at \fBRTAPI_NAME_LEN\fR
characters.  If \fImodname\fR is \fBNULL\fR, the system will assign a
name.

.SH REALTIME CONSIDERATIONS
Call only from within user or init/cleanup code, not from relatime tasks.

.SH RETURN VALUE
On success, returns a positive integer module ID, which is
used for subsequent calls to rtapi_xxx_new, rtapi_xxx_delete,
and rtapi_exit.  On failure, returns an RTAPI error code.
