Apparently, you misunderstood, so I am going to try and explain again.
The problematic line of code is "struct siginfo pse51_si", because of
the toolchain update, the header defining "struct siginfo" was included
in another header, so we made the mistake not to include this header at
the time of xenomai 2.5.6 (which was two and a half years ago). But this
code disappeared in latest versions of Xenomai. So, you have two solutions:
- add the missing #include directive in Xenomai 2.5.6 sources
- or upgrade to Xenomai 2.6.2.1 which is the latest version.
