[Xenomai-help] Xenomai adeos patch for 2.6.16.11 kernel

[Xenomai-help] Xenomai adeos patch for 2.6.16.11 kernel

[Matt Kelsey]

Greetings,
I am updating a project built on the 2.6.10 Linux kernel with fusion
0.9.1 to the Freescale provided 2.6.16.11 kernel with MPC5200b specific
patches (lite5200b).  I see that adeos patches are available for kernel
versions 2.6.14 and 2.6.18.  
Can anyone offer advise on how I might bridge the gap here?  Is it
possible to adjust either of the available adeos patches to fit my
Freescale supported version or would it be better to update my 2.6.16.11
kernel to a adoes supported version( i.e. 2.6.18).  
Any advise on how to accomplish this by these or other means would be
appreciated.

Thanks for your help,

Matt

Upgrading the old Adeos patch from 2.6.14 to 2.6.16 would probably be 
simpler than downgrading from 2.6.18 to 2.6.16. If you choose to upgrade 
the kernel, you can either go for 2.6.20, 2.6.21 or 2.6.23, based on the 
powerpc/ tree, which supports the lite5200b.

In both cases (Adeos or kernel upgrade), you will need to upgrade from 
fusion to Xenomai though (recommended), or at least backport the needed 
bits to support later kernels (very likely not as sane as upgrading from 
fusion to Xenomai anyway).
