How long do you think this is going to be that way, with 2.6.24 actually merging those supports at kernel level? So this changes break things. I don't think that it's a good idea do it > in a release candidate, IMHO. We discussed this issue and the reason for doing this change asap in length on the mailing list two weeks ago or so. Please have a look at the archive for more. You will also find some significant patches already exploiting the new common tree in order to streamline the code, and ease maintenance on our side. Few resources, large work, we have to be efficient, and maintaining two closely related archs sharing bits in separate code bases is pointless, and a loss of time for the project. > > Regards, > > Leo > -- Philippe. _______________________________________________ Xenomai-core mailing list Xenomai-core@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-core
