Sorry for the late reply,
A bit more info would help as i am not sure if you mean adding the ethernet or SSerial device or adding a process to what ?
Or do you mean adding a process for eth/SSerial to a running LinuxCNC instance ?

Our machine tool's controller is a Industrial Personal Computer, it connect a few devices, such as motors by Ethercat, Laser marking card by ethernet cable(there is none can support Ethercat ), Range controller(need both directly connect RS485 and connect Ethercat trans RS485). I want to control motors by Linuxcnc. Motors and Laser marking card controlled by same a G code file, so i need add the Ethernet(Laser marking card) control program in Linuxcnc, I got the API that control the the Laser marking card by its offical website. So i want to know whether i don't need modify linuxcnc HAL when i want to control a device directly connected by ethernet cable, whether my program doesn't go through HAL.

The easiest way is probably to write a HAL driver using the API.
This _probably_ needs to be a user-space driver.
