Re: Configuration of real-time tasks in PREEMPT_RT kernels > 2.6.33

Wolfgang,

I know that in 2.6.33 there were splitted softirqs, and that it was possible to configure each thread with its own priority.
What are the steps that need to be done in 3.x to achieve similar results as in 2.6.33?
The full story is here -> https://www.osadl.org/?id=930. Among others, it says "Thomas Gleixner found the most elegant solution that directly runs the network task in the context of the IRQ thread of the related device and, thus, implicitly adopts its priority." BTW: Thomas did this work when he ported RT to kernel version 3.6, Sebastian posted his backport to 3.2 and 3.4 half a year ago. The missed softirq split is history.

	-Carsten.
