[ANNOUNCE] 3.4-rc2-rt4

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear RT Folks,

I'm pleased to announce the 3.4-rc2-rt4 release. -rt3 is an
intermediate release which has an earlier version of the RCU build
wreckage fix.

Changes since 3.4-rc2-rt2:

  * Fix RCU build wreckage (jkacur)

  * Remove the _GPL restriction from a few exports

    This restores the status quo of pre 3.0 RT versions. 
	  
    I fundamentally hate this change, but the point is, that RT
    replaces non GPL exports with GPL ones and therefor breaks
    "legitimate" abuses of the kernel.

    OTOH I've been exposed to source code of some secret sauce
    drivers. That makes me believe that in a lot of cases the reason
    for not disclosing the driver code is that publishing might put
    the innocent and unprepared reader in danger of gastric ulcer and
    eyecancer.

    So I commit this change for health protection reasons.


The delta patch to 3.4-rc2-rt2 is appended below and can be found
here as incremental patches:
