Subject: [ANNOUNCE] 4.6.4-rt7
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 19:15:41 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160714171541.GC12152@linutronix.de> (raw)

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v4.6.4-rt7 patch set.

Changes since v4.6.4-rt6:

  - Wake up all waiters of del_timer_sync(). Usually there should not
    be more than just one waiter (per timer base) but it possible to
    gain more.

  - Wake up the waiters of del_timer_sync() after dropping the base lock.

Known issues
    - CPU hotplug got a little better but can deadlock.

The delta patch against 4.6.4-rt6 is appended below and can be found here:

     https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.6/incr/patch-4.6.4-rt6-rt7.patch.xz

You can get this release via the git tree at:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v4.6.4-rt7

The RT patch against 4.6.2 can be found here:
