The RTC probably drift less than Xenomai system clock, but according to
an FAQ (http://www.beaglesoft.com/mainfaqclock.htm), the RTC drift is
typically 5 or 6 seconds a day. One way to have your system synchronized
with a precise time source is by using NTP. Unfortunately, Xenomai does
not benefit from using NTP. I guess you may plug a GPS system to the
serial port and get precise timings from there.

The reason why I suggest rt_task_set_periodic()/rt_task_wait_period() is
because they use Xenomai system clock, which compensate a constant part
of the interrupt and scheduling latencies. So, using them should lead to
the small latencies the "latency" test give you.
