Changes since 2.6.23-rc2-rt2: - update to -rc4 - update to 2.6.23-rc4-hrt1 - UP compile fixes back merged (Kevin Hilman / Steven Rostedt) - various latency tracer fixes (Steven Rostedt) - softirq migration fixes (Steven Rostedt) - ARM futex cmpxchg in atomic support (Khem Raj) - ARM raw lock fix (Kevin Hilman) - loadavgrt fix (Luis Claudio R. Goncalves) - mellanox driver fix (Michael S. Tsirkin) A bunch of patches are postponed for -rt2 (they are neither ignored nor forgotten): - simple_irq change (Kevin Hilman): needs more thought - RCU updates (Paul McKenney): needs proper integration - latency tracer changes (Daniel Walker): needs review - PICK_OP changes (Daniel Walker): needs review More info about the -rt patch set can be found in the RT wiki: http://rt.wiki.kernel.org To build a 2.6.23-rc4-rt1 tree, the following patches should be applied: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/linux-2.6.22.tar.bz2 http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.23-rc4.bz2 http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/patch-2.6.23-rc4-rt1.bz2 Thomas, Ingo
