Xenomai Kernel part.
|
||||
Xenomai is split in two parts: a kernel part and a userspace
|
||||
part. Enabling this option automatically selects the Xenomai
|
||||
package and helps in patching the Linux kernel built by
|
||||
Buildroot with the Xenomai kernel part (ie Adeos/Ipipe).
|
||||
|
||||
In the current version of Xenomai, the following kernel
|
||||
versions are supported: on Blackfin, 2.6.34 and 2.6.36.9, on
|
||||
SH4, 2.6.32.10, on x86, 2.6.35.9, 2.6.37.6, 2.6.38.8, on
|
||||
ARM, 2.6.35.9, 2.6.37.6, 2.6.38.8, on NIOS2, 2.6.35, on
|
||||
PowerPC, 2.6.35.7, 2.6.36.4, 3.0.8.
|
||||
You can find the currently supported kernel versions by
|
||||
looking at the available patches in the Xenomai sources
|
||||
tree: ksrc/arch/$(ARCH)/patches
|
||||
|
||||
However, it is recommended to use the latest version of the
|
||||
Adeos/Ipipe patch available at
|
||||
http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches
|
||||
|
||||
Xenomai is know to support Blackfin, SH4, x86, ARM, NIOS2
|
||||
and PowerPC architectures.

Optionally, explicitly specify the Adeos patch to use.
