The issue it tried to solve is mooted by the RCU-tasklist-lock code. - introduce mutex_chprio() as the mechanism for High Resolution timers to dynamically change the priority of the HRT softirq thread. [This fixes a latency/priority bug in where the dynamic prio would override the inherited priority, and when the PI mechanism restores priority it would override the HRT priority.] - now that HR-timer dynamic priorities have the proper framework, removed the HIGH_RES_TIMERS_DYN_PRIO config option and made the feature unconditional. to build a 2.6.13-rc6-rt3 tree, the following patches should be applied: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.12.tar.bz2 http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/testing/patch-2.6.13-rc6.bz2 http://redhat.com/~mingo/realtime-preempt/patch-2.6.13-rc6-rt3 Ingo
