NO_HZ and TI MCSDK 3.8.4 kernel for Keystone 2

NO_HZ and TI MCSDK 3.8.4 kernel for Keystone 2

Hi,

I'm interested in getting the CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL kernel configuration (http://lwn.net/Articles/549580/) to work with the MCSDK kernel for Keystone 2 (http://arago-project.org/git/projects/?p=linux-keystone.git).

Some questions:
Are there any plans to rebase the Keystone 2 BSP against a newer Linux kernel version that supports NO_HZ_FULL (3.10 or later) in the near future?
Are there any available patches that enable the NO_HZ_FULL configuration for the MCSDK 3.8.4 Linux kernel?

Best Regards,
Sixten Sjöström Thames

In general, you need to subscribe to the mailing list to be able to post to 
it. But in this case, meta-arago is probably not the right list for you - are 
you trying to build an Arago distribution that is based on OpenEmbedded and 
the Yocto Project? If it's just the kernel question, then Santosh should be 
able to help you or point you in the right direction. Thanks.

This is planned feature of 2014 Q1 MCSDK releases.

No. We are switching to 3.10 kernel for upcong release in November
and the NO_HZ support will be made available on this kernel
version in Q12014 releases.
