Hello Andy, I have sent the patch which changes from rt to singlethread, I hope it fixes the breakage in linux-next. In short testing, when there is virtually no load on the system I can not see any difference, which might change later. But I'll keep in mind that probably I'm not going to better off with the waking up of a sleeping thread. > > Regards, > Andy Thanks, Péter -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
