Linux SMP *IS* portable across architectures, and *MOST* of the problems *ARE* gone. The Linux kernel on whole is much better code than before PREEMPT was merged. These days problems are generally caused by ARCH and SoC specific drivers (like HDMI, SD/eMMC, USB, etc), where the folks writing

Hey Charles, The Xenomai tests were performed at the userspace level (not even kernelspace or xenomai-kernelspace). We wanted to make a quick test and porting all the drivers to Xenomai seemed like a lot of work. I agree with you, PREEMPT seems to us specially comfortable and easy to keep up
