We are pleased to present, another non-official -rt tree.
linux-2.6.31-rc5-rt1.2
This is an incremental release based on the work of Thomas Gleixner and other -rt developers.
The goal once again is to prevent the official -rt version from developing bit rot while
Thomas and others work on new -rt development.
It will allow you to exercise many of the patches submitted by -rt developers
before they appear in the official branch.
It starts with linux-2.6.31-rc5-rt1.1 (which is a rebase of linux-2.6.31-rc4-rt1)
and adds the following patches
- Thomas Gleixner: Fix PREEMPT=y, LOCKBREAK=y, DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=n compile
- Dinakar Guniguntala: fix compat_futex to be same as futex for REQUEUE_PI
- Darren Hart - futex fixes:
- Update futex_q lock_ptr on requeue proxy lock
- Fix handling of bad requeue syscall pairing
- Avoid deadlock in rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock()
- Uwe Kleine-König: Various compile fixes for ARM
- Add missing includes
- Convert semaphore to mutex sound/soc/s3c24xx/s3c2443-ac97.c
- ixp2000: fix type of ixp2000_timer_interrupt
- Use atomic_spin_lock/atomic_spin_unlock for irqdesc lock
- Kevin Hilman: watchdog: davinci: use clock framework for timer frequency
- Clark Williams: Changed boot warning to look for CONFIG_FUNCTION &&
!CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE
