Hello,

I recently started to look at PREEMPT_RT patches(3.10.14-rt9) and I
have a question.

CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL consists of many patches. I think it doesn't
represent specific feature but is general term of various features.
Why don't those features have each CONFIG_* ?

Best regards,

Do you have something in particular in mind?
As long as it makes sense, there are CONFIG_* introduced. If a patch
breaks locks for instance then we don't a special CONFIG item because
this what we need and we don't keep both versions around (and the non-RT
variant can work both ways).
