Xenomai is split in two parts: a kernel part and a userspace
|
|
part. Enabling this option automatically selects the Xenomai
|
|
package and helps in patching the Linux kernel built by
|
|
Buildroot with the Xenomai kernel part (ie Adeos/Ipipe).
|
|
|
|
You can find the currently supported kernel versions by
|
|
looking at the available patches in the Xenomai sources
|
|
tree: ksrc/arch/$(ARCH)/patches
|
|
|
|
However, it is recommended to use the latest version of the
|
|
Adeos/Ipipe patch available at
|
|
http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches
|
|
|
|
Xenomai is know to support Blackfin, SH4, x86, ARM, NIOS2
|
|
and PowerPC architectures.

Optionally, explicitly specify the Adeos patch to use.
|

Download it at http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches

and verify that your kernel version in buildroot matches.

Linux Framebuffer drivers for small TFT LCD display modules,

e.g. Adafruit PiTFT displays for Raspberry Pi.
|
|
|
|
To enable fbtft, e.g. for Adafruit 2.8 PiTFT, enable the
|
|
following kernel configurations:
|
|
- CONFIG_SPI
|
|
- CONFIG_GPIOLIB
|
|
- CONFIG_FB
|
|
- CONFIG_FB_TFT

- CONFIG_FB_TFT_ILI9341
