As answered to the questions you initially asked on this list, the only
known needed workaround is to disable MSI interrupts (I do not even know
if it is still needed). So, if you have other problems, we would be glad
to know it, because we like to think that when a kernel configuration
works with Linux, it works when enabling Xenomai. So, any motherboard
which works with Linux is supposed to work with Xenomai.

Xenomai will have scalability problems when running on an 8 cores system
(if you intend to run real-time tasks on each of the 8 cores).
