A very annoying issue (aka brown-paperbag bug) has just been fixed in the Adeos/blackfin support, which basically made all POSIX timing services inaccurate. Upgrading to the newest patch is strongly recommended. The following patch is based on the 2.6.16 kernel shipped with the latest uClinux for Blackfin release R2006R1-RC2: http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/blackfin/adeos-ipipe-R06R1RC2-bf53x-1.4-03.patch This one is based on the CVS head from cvs.blackfin.uclinux.org:/cvsroot/uclinux533, as of yesterday: http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/blackfin/adeos-ipipe-cvs-20060604-bf53x-1.4-03.patch Both patches work for the bf533 and bf537 boards. Those patches have also been committed to the v2.1.x and trunk SVN branches of the Xenomai project. -- Philippe.
