What is this i hear about PREEMT_RT from VirtualLogix:

Perhaps this is what the poster seeks...

I think what virtuallogix is offering is a real time virtualization
software. They have a paravirtualization based approach using which
guest OSes like RTOS or other rich OSes can be run simultaneously on
an embedded platform. These guest OSes can communicate using inter OS
communication mechanisms. They are partitioning resources which can be
partitioned like system RAM and resources like CPU, MMU and interrupt
controller are virtualized since they can't be partitioned. So
basically, what they are doing is almost totally irrelevant with this
question, since they are not trying to make Linux a RTOS, rather they
are making Linux and other guest OSes co-exist with RTOSes
simultaneously. Please CMIIW.
