To provide some further info, I tried the command make in the examples directory:

sudo make XENO=/home/charles/xenomai-2.5.4/

which did many things, but eventually gave the following errors:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
xddp-echo.c: In function ‘realtime_thread’:
xddp-echo.c:115: error: ‘SOL_XDDP’ undeclared (first use in this function)
xddp-echo.c:115: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
xddp-echo.c:115: error: for each function it appears in.)
xddp-echo.c:115: error: ‘XDDP_POOLSZ’ undeclared (first use in this function)
make[1]: *** [xddp-echo] Error 1
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

and shortly afterwards ended with:

make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/xenomai_egs/xenomai-head/examples/posix'

Actually, the tests descriptions are the ones from the manual pages
which should have been installed with xenomai.

We get that a lot. Fixing xeno-test is on our todo list, but not just
for right now.
In the mean-time, you can run the tests one by one.

The following paper:
http://download.intel.com/design/intarch/papers/322386.pdf

Is not really up to date with regard to kernel configuration, but gives
an overview of our testsuite.

I am not really familiar with these examples, I will let other people
answer.

[Xenomai-help] Validating installation of Xenomai

[C Robinson]

Hello,

I followed the suggested install procedure to setup a Xenomai kernel on my x86 Ubuntu system.  
(http://www.xenomai.org/index.php/Building_Debian_packages)  
I would like to verify that everything is hunky-dory, but I'm not quite sure how.   I have read in some places that "user space" needs to be set up, although this is not mentioned in the reference I followed.   Is this still necessary?

The command:
	dmesg | grep Xenomai
Shows:	
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	[    0.659903] I-pipe: Domain Xenomai registered.
	[    0.659928] Xenomai: hal/i386 started.
	[    0.659942] Xenomai: scheduling class idle registered.
	[    0.659944] Xenomai: scheduling class rt registered.
	[    0.660450] Xenomai: real-time nucleus v2.5.4 (Sleep Walk) loaded.
	[    0.660570] Xenomai: starting native API services.
	[    0.660572] Xenomai: starting POSIX services.
	[    0.660599] Xenomai: starting RTDM services.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The command: 
	xeno-test
Is not quite so promising (there was more of the same text above and below the output shown below):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am also attempting to follow the instructions to set up the examples (http://www.xenomai.org/index.php/Examples).    I extracted the examples to:
/usr/xenomai_egs/xenomai-head/examples/
so this would be the directory I would use for the first step. (Although I notice that I also have something at /usr/share/xenomai/testsuite/unit/)  

The second step, I come across the reference to 'user space', the step being:

make XENO=<xenomai-installation-path> KSRC=<xenomai-kernel-source>

I do not need a second argument (since I am in the patched kernel)
but the first argument is the user space directory.	
So my next question is to check if the user space (i.e. the XENO variable) refers to the directory /home/<user name>/xenomai-2.5.4 and if so, is it ok to use my default user name? 

Many thanks,

Charles
