At the moment of writing this, the last compatible patch is for kernel version 4.14.36. The Xenomai patches can be downloaded here. ~/rpi-kernel$ tar xjf xenomai-3.0.7.tar.bz2 Switching the branchĪs we are going to patch the kernel source with the Xenomai patch, both versions have to be the same. There is also a Xenomai "next" version here, but it is a development version. There is a patch for arm64, but at the moment of writing this, it's still for kernel 4.9. We need also the Xenomai files and the patch, in this case I took the last stable version (v3.0.7) and the patch for arm32. The Raspberry PI kernel source will be downloaded to the linux subdirectory (1-2GB) and the Raspberry PI cross-compilers to the tools subdirectory (200MB). Then, clone the following repositories: ~/rpi-kernel$ git clone The subdirectory rt-kernel is for the compiled files. rpi-kernel under your home directory: ~$ mkdir ~/rpi-kernel To start in a clean way, make a subdirectory, e.g. In my case, I am using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, but the tutorial should work with any version of Linux. Getting the sourcesįor this tutorial, you need a host computer running Linux. If you need a tutorial for patching the kernel click on the link above. The patched Preempt-RT sources are included in the official Raspberry Pi repository. This tutorial is almost the same as the tutorial for Preempt-RT patching, but in this case, we need to patch the kernel. When the native Linux kernel cannot meet the response time requirements of the application, Xenomai supplements it with Cobalt, a small real-time infrastructure which schedules time-critical activities independently from the main kernel logic.Ĭhecking the list of supported hardware, the Raspberry Pi 2, 3 B(+) ARM micro (BCM2835) is included. Xenomai brings POSIX and traditional RTOS APIs for porting time-critical applications to Linux-based platforms. The website of Xenomai says the following about it Xenomai: Deploying the Testsuite on Raspberry Pi.Installing the Kernel Image, Modules & Device Tree Overlays.
