Q: I'm trying to make the posix thread and queue examples in /usr/src/rtai/posix/test. The .c files in test don't seem to get made.

A: You have to enable both: "[ ] POSIX API" and "[ ] Compile tests" in the Test and Examples subsystem (when configuring RTAI using e.g. make menuconfig).

Q: I have download a pristine kernel 2.4.20 from www.kernel.org for my Redhat9.0 machine. I also applied rtai patch (patch -p1 </home/rtai/rtai-24.1.11/patches/patch-2.4.20-rthal5g>) on that pristine kernel and compiled it sucessfully. But When I built rtai, it gave me error messages:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/rtai/rtai-24.1.11/usposix'

No.

What you need to do is make sure the include path is arranged source headers find /usr/src/linux/include/* instead of /usr/include/* when building kernel stuff, and vice versa when building userland stuff.

You *want* these to be different.

A: My main problem happened when enabling the Linux kernel option "Set version information on all module symbols" (which should be disabled anyway if you want to generate a kernel for RTAI).
