	  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.
