That is the expected behaviour: xenomai posix skin shared memory is
different from Linux regular shared memory. In the same vein, xenomai
posix skin semaphores are different from Linux regular semaphores.
But there is no problem using Linux regular shared memory in a real-time
thread, providing that you call mlockall. Using a Linux regular
semaphore in a real-time thread is also possible by using
__real_sem_post or __real_sem_wait, but the real-time
thread will migrate to secondary mode.
The alternative is to compile the two processes with the flags given by
xeno-config, and to create non real-time threads in one process using
__real_pthread_create.
