found linux-stable-rt-4.19.233-rt105-rebase

[gene heskett]

Greetings rt-kernel-users;

I managed to trace thru git.kernel.org until I found the above rebase. 
Downloaded it, moved it to the rpi4, and unpacked it.

But to build it on an rpi4b for armhf, needs a bcm2711-defconfig, and it 
is not there in this tarball.

The newest I have on site is dated Jan 20, 2020 from a 4.19.y tarball.

I obviously got the wrong tarball, so where do I find the right tarball 
or git clone that will build on an rpi4b today?

I have since found this one:
<linux-stable-rt-d28ccbd42ce8c5b5d0b5f79160bfe0c5c98f9037.tar.gz>
Is this the one I need?

Thanks all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.

And this one has also lost the bcm2711 support.
Please advise.

RPi4 was released in 2019, while v4.19 got released in October
2018. Hence the upstream v4.19 kernel never had support for the RPi4 as
far I can tell.

It sounds very likely that you are running a downstream kernel for which
RPi4 support was retrofitted. Nothing lost in upstream stable or
stable-rt kernels.

If you want to run upstream kernels, I suggest you pick a newer kernel
which supports RPi4.
