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.
Download it at http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/$(ARCH)/
Download it at http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches
and verify that your kernel version in buildroot matches.
