Everything which fiddles with the internals of the Linux kernel has to
be seen as extension of GPL software, thus falls under the GPL, too. For
this reason, Adeos is also licenced under the GPL, and so are the kernel
parts of Xenomai and its skins. Normally, an RTOS emulation skin
consists of a kernel part and userspace libraries. If you follow this
path for your proprietary RTOS at least the kernel part must be GPL
compliant.
