Out of curiosity i enabled CONFIG_PREEMPT on my c8000. The kernel didn't even compile. After fixing compilation i noticed a lot of segmentation faults - usually a few processes crashed already at boot, with sshd the most notable one. Most of the time the processes where crashing with a DTLB or ITLB miss. With these fixes, i was able to compile a linux kernel on the c8000 with preemption enabled without crashes.
