Also note that even with the threadirqs command line, I do not think threaded IRQ handling is implemented if the PREEMPT option is not selected when the kernel is compiled. That was the case in the past, I have not verified it is still the case with the very latest, although if you are looking for low latency you will probably want to verify that the kernel is configured with at least PREEMPT if not using the full PREEMPT-RT patches. -- Chris Caudle _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
