Dear RT Folks, This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.0.23-rt39-rc1. Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too. The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate). The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the final release is. If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release on 3/9/2012. Enjoy, -- Steve To build 3.0.23-rt39-rc1 directly, the following patches should be applied: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/linux-3.0.tar.xz http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/patch-3.0.23.xz http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.0/patch-3.0.23-rt39-rc1.patch.xz You can also build from 3.0.23-rt38 by applying the incremental patch: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.0/incr/patch-3.0.23-rt38-rt39-rc1.patch.xz Changes from 3.0.23-rt38: --- Andy Lutomirski (2): x86-64-remove-vsyscall-number-3 x86-64-emulate-legacy-vsyscalls Steven Rostedt (11): revert-convert-xtime_lock-to-raw_seqlock revert-seqlock-create-raw_seqlock revert-seqlock-use-seqcount revert-seqlock-remove-unused-functions timer: Fix hotplug for -rt futex/rt: Fix possible lockup when taking pi_lock in proxy handler ring-buffer/rt: Check for irqs disabled before grabbing reader lock sched/rt: Fix wait_task_interactive() to test rt_spin_lock state lglock/rt: Use non-rt for_each_cpu() in -rt code cpu: Make hotplug.lock a "sleeping" spinlock on RT Linux 3.0.23-rt39-rc1 Thomas Gleixner (12): x86: vdso: Remove bogus locking in update_vsyscall_tz() x86: vdso: Use seqcount instead of seqlock ia64: vsyscall: Use seqcount instead of seqlock seqlock: Remove unused functions seqlock: Use seqcount seqlock: Provide seq_spin_* functions fs: fs_struct use seqlock fs: dentry use seqlock timekeeping: Split xtime_lock seqlock: Prevent rt starvation fs: Protect open coded isize seqcount net: u64_stat: Protect seqcount ---- arch/ia64/kernel/asm-offsets.c | 4 +- arch/ia64/kernel/fsys.S | 2 +- arch/ia64/kernel/fsyscall_gtod_data.h | 2 +- arch/ia64/kernel/time.c | 10 +- arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/inode.c | 6 +- arch/x86/include/asm/irq_vectors.h | 6 +- arch/x86/include/asm/traps.h | 4 + arch/x86/include/asm/vgtod.h | 2 +- arch/x86/include/asm/vsyscall.h | 12 ++ arch/x86/kernel/Makefile | 1 + arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S | 2 + arch/x86/kernel/traps.c | 6 + arch/x86/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S | 4 - arch/x86/kernel/vsyscall_64.c | 289 ++++++++++++----------------- arch/x86/kernel/vsyscall_emu_64.S | 27 +++ arch/x86/vdso/vclock_gettime.c | 16 +- drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/ipath_fs.c | 6 +- drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/qib_fs.c | 6 +- drivers/usb/core/inode.c | 12 +- fs/9p/vfs_dir.c | 4 +- fs/afs/dir.c | 4 +- fs/autofs4/autofs_i.h | 24 ++-- fs/autofs4/expire.c | 44 +++--- fs/autofs4/root.c | 38 ++-- fs/btrfs/export.c | 4 +- fs/ceph/caps.c | 8 +- fs/ceph/debugfs.c | 8 +- fs/ceph/dir.c | 26 ++-- fs/ceph/inode.c | 20 +- fs/ceph/mds_client.c | 16 +- fs/cifs/dir.c | 6 +- fs/coda/cache.c | 4 +- fs/configfs/configfs_internal.h | 4 +- fs/configfs/inode.c | 6 +- fs/dcache.c | 269 +++++++++++++-------------- fs/dcookies.c | 8 +- fs/exec.c | 4 +- fs/exportfs/expfs.c | 12 +- fs/fat/inode.c | 4 +- fs/fat/namei_vfat.c | 4 +- fs/fhandle.c | 4 +- fs/fs-writeback.c | 4 +- fs/fs_struct.c | 46 ++--- fs/fuse/inode.c | 4 +- fs/gfs2/export.c | 4 +- fs/isofs/export.c | 4 +- fs/libfs.c | 36 ++-- fs/namei.c | 56 +++--- fs/namespace.c | 8 +- fs/ncpfs/dir.c | 6 +- fs/ncpfs/ncplib_kernel.h | 8 +- fs/nfs/dir.c | 6 +- fs/nfs/getroot.c | 12 +- fs/nfs/namespace.c | 16 +- fs/nfs/unlink.c | 20 +- fs/nilfs2/namei.c | 4 +- fs/notify/fsnotify.c | 8 +- fs/notify/vfsmount_mark.c | 24 ++-- fs/ocfs2/dcache.c | 6 +- fs/ocfs2/export.c | 4 +- fs/reiserfs/inode.c | 4 +- fs/udf/namei.c | 4 +- fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_export.c | 8 +- include/linux/dcache.h | 15 +- include/linux/fs.h | 6 +- include/linux/fs_struct.h | 16 +- include/linux/fsnotify_backend.h | 6 +- include/linux/lglock.h | 35 ++++- include/linux/seccomp.h | 10 + include/linux/seqlock.h | 142 +++++++++------ include/linux/u64_stats_sync.h | 2 + include/net/neighbour.h | 2 +- kernel/cgroup.c | 22 +- kernel/cpu.c | 35 +++- kernel/fork.c | 10 +- kernel/rtmutex.c | 6 +- kernel/sched.c | 6 +- kernel/time/jiffies.c | 4 +- kernel/time/ntp.c | 24 ++- kernel/time/tick-common.c | 10 +- kernel/time/tick-internal.h | 3 +- kernel/time/tick-sched.c | 16 +- kernel/time/timekeeping.c | 89 +++++---- kernel/timer.c | 16 +- kernel/trace/ring_buffer.c | 2 +- localversion-rt | 2 +- net/sunrpc/rpc_pipe.c | 6 +- security/selinux/selinuxfs.c | 14 +- 88 files changed, 919 insertions(+), 810 deletions(-) -- 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
