If you want to use the Xenomai native API, then you should use
rt_task_shadow and rt_task_delete.

If you want to use the posix API, then you should use
pthread_setschedparam (though pthread_create, called to create the task
would probably have already made it real-time) and pthread_exit.

Note that Xenomai comes with a documentation which you can even read
on-line.

Here for trunk:

And here for version 2.4:
