I just like to know whether xenomai installation will create any "modules" folder in /usr/xenomai/ or not?. Like in RTAI mechanism(loading .ko modules one by one manually) is not necessary in xenomai?. Since I am new to xenomai, I found that I have zero .ko modules in my installation directory, /usr/xenomai. In other words I am not aware of Xenomai installed file structure. Do I need to load any modules to test RTNet in xenomai?.

Xenomai is integrated into the kernel tree and you have the option to
link Xenomai interfaces and drivers statically or dynamically (as
modules). So it depends on your kernel configuration. By default
everything is compiled statically! You should see Xenomai related output
when your system boots. Then, you just need to load the RTnet modules.
