Why do you want to use lwIP. Of course it's possible to do that, but have you
thought about using Linux with RT patch? Would that not be enough to reach your
requited realtime timing?
With your approach, I guess you will need to give lwIP exclusive access to the
petrol interface.

I really can't help you much there. If the network interface is for use
exclusively to lwIP, I guess the netif driver can be reused. But you'll need to
port lwIP to Xenomai (if that hasn't been done yet).
