error compiling patched 5.4.77 Linux kernel on x86

error compiling patched 5.4.77 Linux kernel on x86

[Andy Tannenbaum]

I am having trouble building a kernel with the new
ipipe-core-5.4.77-x86-2.patch.

Before this, I am successfully running Xenomai 3.1 and Linux 4.19 cip24:on x86
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cip/linux-cip.git/snapshot/linux-cip-4.19.114-cip24.tar.gz

I am trying to upgrade to Linux 5.4 with the recent ipipe patch:

https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.4.77.tar.xz
https://xenomai.org/downloads/ipipe/v5.x/x86/ipipe-core-5.4.77-x86-2.patch

I was able to apply the new ipipe patch with Xenomai 3.1, but my
compile failed with an args mismatch in
xenomai/thread.c, calling switch_fpu_finish()
I see that the internal.h definition is different from the thread.c code.
(compile error output below)

This was after I turned off the suggested list of Linux kernel .config
options like ACPI_PROCESSOR, CPU_FREQ, etc.
Please advise.
Should I post my kernel .config file?

5.4 porting work against xenomai's next branch:

git clone -b next https://git.xenomai.org/xenomai xenomai-next

should not be a issue with .config

and in our test machine(Debian 10 with Gnome desktop), we see system hang issue within 48 hours' run,
workload is 8 glmark2 windows.
