The hang occurs in the ioctl function at an rtdm_sem_down call that waits for the interrupt handler to signal the handling of an interrupt.  We suspect that we have a problem with our kernel build/installation configuration options.  We have attempted to configure the Core i7-3770S system so that Xenomai/Cobalt only uses 2 cores like the other 2 working Core2 computers, but the system still hangs (more detail on the results of our attempt is included beow).  Eventually, we would like to configure Xenomai/Cobalt to run on 4 cores of the i7 computer if possible.

This sounds like an irq conflict: a device handled by an RTDM driver
can not use the same irq line as a device handled by a plain Linux
driver without modifying the plain Linux driver. See FAQ for
solutions to that problem.
