We are proud to deliver the greatest uncertainty, where the deepest fears about upgrading may turn into the highest hopes. And vice-versa. Is there any test-suite available for the pSOS skin? This is a good start, used to validate the Xenomai SOLO implementation. http://git.denx.de/?p=xenomai-solo.git;a=tree;f=psos/testsuite;h=54411570e19dec40e14a1226084024c05c0f3e53;hb=ee9c11895ac7cf2d72b1158a4836a4465f478a0b This needs to be slightly adapted to run over the current Xenomai 2.x architecture, but the test logic of course is the same.

Philippe, The sm_ident patch is fine.
