Re: [Xenomai-core] clocktest and cyclictest work but irqloop crashes

My apologies - I didn't realize I had to change that configuration.  
I'll look into it.

The 405GP UART is a 16550 clone but the registers are at ef600300 in 
memory space, and the IRQ is 0.  This information is captured in the 
board-specific .dts file - it looks like the .dts info is made available 
in /sysfs.

That said, I think there is more going on here.  Without Xenomai, I am 
able to ping the loopback address.  With Xenomai, I get a crash, also 
involving a "kernel access of bad area".  Note: in both cases I am able 
to mount my root filesystem over NFS, so the kernel is able to use the 
network, but user-land (or at least ping) is not.  Here is what the ping 
crash looks like:

# ping 127.0.0.1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1): 56 data bytes
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000008
