Hi Wolfgang,
I finally found some time and did some tests with your config file and the shiny
new 2.6.25.8-rt7

Keep in mind that I'm running Linux on a rootfs mounted via NFS.

I have exactly the same test configuration here.

Again everything looks just fine to me. Depending on which debugging Option are
turned on my max. results pended between 70 and 350 us. However I could not
produce any peak worst case values, which are so far away from the average like
in your case.

The .config you send me correspond to what latency (debugging options turned on).

Have you tried the new -rt patch on your board? Still any strange results?

I just re-tested 2.6.25.8-rt7 with a .config as close as possible to yours. Still, the latency measured with "cyclictest -p 98 -n -t1 -i1000" goes up to 600us within a few minutes. I also re-measured latencies with older kernel version:

  RT kernel      Max. latency
  2.6.25.8-rt7     605 us
  2.6.24.7-rt13    230 us
  2.6.24.4-rt4     130 us

I will now try to narrow down the latency evils.

Wolfgang.
