Do I change rthal inside xenomai? How can I do?
Is there a benchmark or some number to understand better this slowness (in us)?

Yes I think so
Now SIS is about 500 kb of pure asm and works with a big cli on start and a sti
on finish @ring 0 and reprogram the exception vectors but I want to integrate
into xenomai.
Proposal:
- At start SIS save the addresses of the exception vectors
- When an exception is raised then the processor switch to the custom exception
vectors but
if the SIS is not currently active then jump to the old exception vectors
Is it possible?
Sorry for the large number of questions
