Hello.

I have a problem with a mutex shared by 3 real-time user tasks. Once in a while 
(~hours) the mutex get locked with the first task as owner and the other two 
tasks are fronzen on rt_mutex_aquire calls. But I have double checked, that 
every "acquire" of that mutex is followed by "release".

Typical example:
Lets call those tasks REG, SEND, RECEIVE

RECV: acquire
RECV: release

RECV: acquire
RECV: release

RECV: acquire - FREEZE

REG: acquire
REG: release

REG: acquire
REG: release

REG: acquire
REG: release

SEND: acquire - FREEZE

There are also other threads, sync. objects, network sockets, ... in the 
system, but the threads are frozen by this particular mutex.
rt_task_unblock call unblocks the tasks, return value of rt_mutex_acquire is -4 
(-EINTR), as expected.
Used version of Xenomai 2.5.6, skin native. Was there any known issue similar 
to that behavior?
Also it seems that rt_mutex_create is called before mlockall call? Could it be 
a problem?
