Which location is prefered for pipe source files?
Currently, cpukits/libfs/pipe/.

Any document on how to finish all the configuration scripts and makefiles,
and to add necessary configuration items?

Which location is prefered for pipe test code?
testsuites/psxtest/ ?

Is psxtest ported from somewhere?
I feel it is too consuming to design and implement testcases oneself.

At which level should the pipe module be initialized?
Currently, I initialize the pipe module at the initialization of each
FS supports it (IMFS_initialize_support to be more specific).

In my code, I always carefully assume rtems_semaphore_obtain and
rtems_barrier_wait may fail (not timeout or destroyed). Is that necessary?

Thanks,
Wei
