+ Xenomai is split in two parts: a kernel part and an userspace part.
+ Enabling this option automatically select the Xenomai package and help
+ to patch the linux kernel build by Builroot with the Xenomai kernel
+ part (ie ADEOS/IPIPE).

- 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

- PowerPC, 2.6.35.7, 2.6.36.4, 3.0.8.
+ You can find the currently supported kernel list by looking at the
+ available patches in the Xenomai sources tree:
+ ksrc/arch/$(ARCH)/patches
