This patch exists in all -RT releases up to 3.12. If there is an issue with it, it should be solved. If the sched bit set is and you can't get lock later then the tasklet has be to active. Finally, not getting the lock in the tasklet code itself means it is still occupied by the "add-to-the-list" part which actually can't happen according to the code. You said, that you have an eight-way. Is this also NUMA? If so, does this problem happen if you disable NUMA (i.e. run only one NUMA node and use only the memory that is directly attached to the node). > Finally, I would like to thank you again. > > Thanks! > Yijing.
