My point being: it may be a more useful effort to add what is missing to
the mainline kernel (the ethernet driver for instance) from the Xilinx
tree and get Xenomai working on that kernel embryo which is bound to
evolve, than to continue generating pre and post patches for the Xilinx
tree. Vendor forks tend to become obsolete very quickly, and lack the
review of their patches by the kernel community.
