Hi, I am unable to boot the kernel (as available in this link - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/rt/2.6.33) on Beagle board. Kernel is unable to uncompress itself & crashing. Tool chain used is - gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-67). I will check with older toolchain & keep it posted.

For those who wonder about -rt5. It's there as well, but the tag is more or less a separation point. Changes from -rt4 to -rt5: 8fafaf5: v2.6.33-rt5 f6e20d0: tracing: Define pid functions for all config combinations 4216e30: vga console: Remove the CON_ATOMIC flag 7033151: x86: Fix 32bit HIGHMEM=n compile c28c2c8: x86: highmem: Remove stale function prototype fb301a4: mm: highmem: Fix stale BUG_ON condition Changes from -rt5 to -rt6: af5d4b6: v2.6.33-rt6 1054085: Merge branch 'rt-2.6.33-queue' of git://dev.lemote.com/rt4ls into rt/2.6.33 This brings MIPS back into the -RT world! Thanks to Wu Zhangjin !! Note that the MIPS support is only tested on Loongson hardware so your milage with other MIPS incarnations may vary. Known issues for -rt6: - load balancer induced latencies. Can be observed in extreme system overload situations (load avg > 1000), so probably not a real world issue, but still it shows a weak point. - rcu stalls on overload situations caused by exit_io_context() RCU read locked section which heavily contends on sleeping locks. Still under investigation.
