then I maybe dont get the "exclusive" issue you note - if the highest priority task does not have exclusive access - assuming that there is not contention free sharing - how can you give guarantees ? I can imagin sharing if the highest priority has unconstraint access to the reource and any other access is controled by the highest priority task (i.e. queue replication like ARINC 653 queueing ports) but if you have multiple instances of different priority accessing a resource I don't see how this could be done while giving guarantees on timing (assuming that it is not possible to provide all access as physically atomic instructions)

Do you have an example at hand of such a shared I/O device scheme that can guarantee rt timing ?
