No, I cannot see it.

I put the kernel on github: https://github.com/LITMUS-RT/litmus-rt-odroidx
Unfortunately, the commit history is not as clean as I would like, but
I imagine that we will not be using this specific kernel beyond a
rebase of LITMUS^RT on top of a newer mainline linux.

I also put some tools online that you might want to use:
https://github.com/LITMUS-RT/tools
in particular:
https://github.com/LITMUS-RT/tools/blob/master/odroid-install-kernel.sh

However, Björn wrote all the other tools in this repository. I am not
sure if he wants them to be publicly shared. If he wants them taken
down, then he should tell me to do so (or do it himself, since he has
the rights to do so).

I look forward to hearing about your future developments with this
platform. Keep me updated.

Thanks,
Chris
