Hi Otavio,

Please, find attached the patch for the recipe Linux-fslc-imx-rt-1.1.x.bb. 

The URL of the RT patch was update to fit the kernel version 3.14.61 (following the latest patch in linux-fslc.inc). 

I build an image, performing a cyclictest in a custom board (iMX6 Solo) and the results are as expected: 

cyclictest  -p 80 -n -i 1000 -l 10000000
T: 0 ( 7184) P:80 I:1000 C:1825727 Min:      8 Act:   13 Avg:   14 Max:  129

BTW, Owe (from rt-users) suggest me to use 4.4 kernel. Checking at FSL, it's not clear which are the difference between the mainline and the supported 3.14.52 [1]. In other hand, the FSL BSP [2] suggest the default 3.14.28 (that you update recently to 3.14.52). I suppose, FSL performed a lot of testing in their version and will not support (officially) the mainline kernel. If I'm wrong, please, somebody let me know [3][4].

Thanks and Regards

Julio
