Dear colleagues,
I face an unexpected switch to secondary mode after the very first call to
rt_timer_tsc() into a real-time task created by Xenomai.
This unexpected switch only arises if it is the very first call to
rt_timer_tsc().
Calling rt_timer_tsc() before creating the task, solves the unexpected switch
to secondary mode.
I can not figure where the problem is.
Help will be welcomed.
Thanks in advance.

Simplest possible self-contained test case:
RT_TASK Test_Task_descriptor;
void Test_Task(void *arg)
{
// Arguments: &task (NULL=self), start time, period (here: 1,001 ms)
rt_task_set_periodic(NULL, TM_NOW, 1001000);
while(1) {
// Wait for the next periodic release point.
rt_task_wait_period(NULL);
rt_timer_tsc(); // Very first call causes an unexpected switch to
secondary mode! - Removing this call works OK.
}
}
main()
{
...
// rt_timer_tsc(); // Calling rt_timer_tsc() before creating the task,
solves the unexpected switch to secondary mode.
// Real-time function creation.
if (int err = rt_task_create(&Test_Task_descriptor, "Test_Task", 0, 90,
0)) {
log(CU_LOG_ERR, "Error creating Test_Task (%d)", err);
return FALSE;
}
// Real-time function started.
if(rt_task_start(&Test_Task_descriptor, &Test_Task, NULL)) {
log(CU_LOG_ERR, "Error starting Test_Task");
return FALSE;
}
...
}
