 Dear sir,      sorry to trouble u,but i have a problem i  can't solve.      Now i use an omap3530 Evaluation Boards and the linux kernel  which manufacturers provides is 2.6.32 . i have to use this kernel.when i try the step: $ scripts/prepare-kernel.sh --linux=<linux-srctree>
[--adeos=<adeos-patch>] [--arch=<target-arch>],i can't find the adeos-patch which matches the kernel ,so I need ur help and how can i use xenomai with the linux kernel of 2.6.32 on the platform of omap3530? thanks for ur help.Best wishes to you!                                                          Sincerely yours, Liang Runhan

You have two soilutions:
- either you adapt the patches for linux 2.6.31 or 2.6.33 to linux 2.6.32
- or you adapt a more recent linux kernel version for which an Adeos
patch exists to your board.

If you know more linux than xenomai, the second solution is easier.
Besides 2.6.32 is seriously outdated now.

 OMAP3530 support is almost fully merged in the 3.0 mainline kernel, IIRC.
I think only a few of the video accelerator drivers are missing.  So the
mainline v3.0 (with the corresponding Adeos patches from gna.org) and see 
how far you get.

OMAP3 support is available has ben mainline kernel for years in the
mainline kernel, I would say since at least 2.6.31. The problem is more
board support for the specific board this user wants, and drivers. But
as I said, adding this support if you have it for another kernel is
easier than adapting I-pipe support.
