Why calling kernelInit two times.

Hi all,

When I was studying boot sequence I found the below abnormality.

There is kernel init call

kernelInit ((FUNCPTR) usrRoot, ROOT_STACK_SIZE, \
(char *) MEM_POOL_START_ADRS,
sysMemTop (), ISR_STACK_SIZE, INT_LOCK_LEVEL); in
usrKernelInit() function in usrkernel.c .

which is called from usrInit() function. but after calling
usrKernelInit(), we again calling kernelInit() from usrInit(). in
bootconfig.c

I wonder why we are calling kernelInit two time..?

Any one know the reason?

I am using vxworks 6.4 ..

Regards,
Nabendu
