Hello Steven, Back in August we all had a discussion about the default priorities of IRQ-threads and softirqs, and the lack of a mechanism to configure them from within the kernel. (see http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rt-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg01022.html) Here is a patchset that implements such a nice feature from the kernel cmdline, similar to what we all agreed on, back then. The set exist of 3 parts: 1) add a generic routine to the kernel commandline-parse-library to parse the format of the map as we agreed on. 2) Add a __setup(irq_pmap=) routine to kernel/irq/manage.c 3) Add a __setup(sirq_pmap=) routine to kernel/softirq.c I hope you can find the time to review this set. Kind Regards, Remy Bohmer -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rt-users" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
