[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] Add xenomai real-time Framework to buildroot for Arm and x86

benoit.mauduit at gmail.com benoit.mauduit at gmail.com
Wed Jul 13 15:53:00 UTC 2011


From: Benoit Mauduit <benoit.mauduit at openwide.fr>

Buildroot Kernel:
  * Download Adeos patch and specify the path into buildroot
    menuconfig...
  * ..and take care of Linux kernel version supported by Xenomai.

Non-buildroot Kernel:
  * The User-space part of Xenomai can be built with an external
    real-time kernel.

+****************
+* Xenomai      *
+****************
+
+Xenomai comes with 2 parts : Kernel Part and User-space part.
+Kernel part patch Linux with ADEOS(i-pipe)
+(http://home.gna.org/adeos/) and some Xenomai kernel space stuff.
+
+From Adeos main site :
+"The purpose of Adeos is to provide a flexible environment for sharing
+hardware resources among multiple operating systems, or among multiple
+instances of a single OS."
+
+From Xenomai main site :
+"Xenomai is a real-time development framework cooperating with the
+Linux kernel, in order to provide a pervasive, interface-agnostic,
+hard real-time support to user-space applications, seamlessly
+integrated into the GNU/Linux environment."
+
+****************
+* Installation *
+****************
+
+* Buildroot Kernel: *
+  - Check that your version of Linux Kernel is supported by the
+    version of xenomai you choose.
+  - Download Adeos patch at
+    http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/$(ARCH)/, or if your
+    are sure, let the Xenomai 'prepare-kernel.sh' script do the work.
+  - Check the Xenomai Kernel option in Buildroot :
+     -> Kernel
+       -> Linux Kernel (BR2_LINUX_KERNEL [=y])
+         -> Linux Kernel Extensions
+            -> [*] Adeos/Xenomai Real-time patch
+     ..And add the path to Adeos patch. (or leave it empty if you let
+     xenomai script do the work)
+
+* Non-Buildroot Kernel AND Buildroot Kernel *
+  - Make sure your Kernel is patched with Xenomai
+  - Check the option in Buildroot menu :
+    -> Package Selection for the target
+       -> Real-time
+          -> [*] Xenomai Userspace
+  - You can download a custom version of Xenomai that fit with your
+  Kernel.
+  - If you use static /dev and the default device_table, Uncomment
+  Xenomai part in 'target/generic/device_table_dev.txt'. (rtheap,
+  rtscope and rtp[0-31])
