I guess you are looking at the kernel code? I was still looking at the user
space code for __wrap_select.  The arguments of that function are as
expected: nfds=897, and the bit for file descriptor 896 is set in __readfds.
I guess the XENOMAI_SKINCALL5 macro expands to a kernel call,  but sorry I
have little experience with kernel programming.  Does this go straight to
the __select function in skins/posix/syscall.c?  I can see the
first_fp_valid_p call there.

This is the function where I previously put a printk call.  I just checked
dmesg again,  and the printk'd message now appears (it seems that `dmesg |
tail -f` isn't working correctly for me, but `dmesg | tail` is). Also, when
I change syscall.c,  a `make-kpkg --rootcmd fakeroot --initrd
kernel_image`at the top of the source tree somehow does not rebuild
anything.  Until now,
I have done a clean + complete rebuild for the whole kernel for each
change,  but that takes quite some time.  Is there a better way to do this?
