Hello all,

I am configuring a new PC for Xenomai 2.1 with a 2.6.16 kernel. In the past I have always used a vanilla kernel in the default configuration. I was wondering what features are recommended to enable or disable in the default kernel configuration? For example I know to enable the SMI workaround if the chipset supports it.

What about SMP?
Kernel pre-emption?
Power management ACPI/APM/frequency scaling?

Or, are all these irrelevant because Xenomai sits ahead of the kernel in the interrupt pipeline?

I had this thought because my new motherboard supports hyper-threading and the vanilla kernel build includes SMP support.

Thanks,
Sean
