Hi Ingo,
The following repositories
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ghaskins/linux-2.6-hacks.git tip/sched/devel/rtbalance
ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/tip-rt-fixes.tar.bz2
[
*- Steve: I have also backported this to 2.6.26.3-rt5: *-
ftp://ftp.novell.com/dev/ghaskins/PREEMPT_RT-rt-fixes.tar.bz2
]
apply to tip/sched/devel to pick up the following fixes for the RT
scheduler.
[
Changelog:
v3:
*) fixed a bug in patch 6/6 in enqueue_pushable_task
*) backported from tip to 26.3-rt5
v2:
*) predicated newidle and double_lock changes on
CONFIG_PREEMPT to address a concern by Nick Piggin
*) fixed a build issue when DEBUG_PI_LIST is defined
v1:
*) initial release
]
These patches were developed in the interest of shorting latencies in
PREEMPT_RT, but they apply to the mainline scheduler as well, so I am
offering them here as well.
This has been tested under both 26.3-rt5 and tip/sched/devel on x86_64 for
both CONFIG_SMP and !CONFIG_SMP.
Comments/bug-fixes welcome!
Regards,
-Greg
