Hello,

We are running Xenomai 3 with Cobalt kernel.
We have a realtime xenomai userspace application (which is driven by a =
RTDM), it runs with the highest priority and doesn't have any mode =
switches. Let's call it thread 'A'.
Reading the documentation it's unclear to us, if it can have any =
ill-effects on the realtime performance of thread A, if the process =
which spawns thread A has other Xenomai threads, which do have mode =
switches.
Is that the case?
What about separate processes with Xenomai threads, if those have =
switches between primary and secondary mode (MSW's), can that have any =
effect on the realtime performance of thread A?

Best regards,
Kristian Rahbek
