[Xenomai-help] Problems building Xenomai 2.4-rc4 and linux 2.6.23

Hello,

I am trying to build a kernel that supports xenomai, but every combination
of xenomai releases, adeos-ipipe patches, and linux kernels don't seem to
build successfully for me.  First, I'd like to know if someone recommends a
particular version of all of these that is known to work for you?? Right now
I am trying to use:

linux-2.6.23.tar.bz2  (from kernel.org)
xenomai-2.4-rc4.tar.bz2
adeos-ipipe-2.6.23-i386-1.10-10.patch


Heres is what I am doing:

# ./prepare-kernel.sh --linux=~/incoming/linux-2.6.23--adeos=~/incoming/adeos-
ipipe-2.6.23-i386-1.10-10.patch --arch=i386

..... (no indication of failure) ....

# cd ~/incoming/linux-2.6.23

# make clean distclean mrproper

# make menuconfig

# make

......


  AS      arch/i386/boot/compressed/head.o
  CC      arch/i386/boot/compressed/misc.o

I've read the included README.INSTALL and TROUBLESHOOTING docs included with
xenomai, but they didn't seem to help me in this case.  If anyone has
recommendations for me that would be great!

Thanks,

Rob

This should not happen anymore. Could you post your .config so that we
can try to reproduce the error?

Are there more combinations that do not build? Note that the issue above
is 2.6.23-specific.

Well, sadly I don't have it with me.  I can post it tomorrow, But,
essentially the config is whatever the default is.  I didn't change any
options when I ran `make menuconfig`.

The other configurations I tried were:

linux-2.6.23.1.tar.bz2
xenomai-2.4-rc4.tar.bz2
adeos-ipipe-2.6.23-i386-1.10-10.patch


And,

linux-2.6.23.1.tar.bz2
xenomai-2.3.4.tar.bz2
adeos-ipipe-2.6.23-i386-1.10-10.patch

OK, will retry your steps later, maybe it also triggers for me.

This combination will not work "by design" (2.3.x only supports kernels
up to 2.6.20).

Only Xenomai/x86 currently has this limitation, due to the introduction
of the generic clock events layer. Other supported archs may still use
more recent kernels along with v2.3.x, until this layer makes it into
mainline for them too, that is.
