Hi All, Sebastian, ! Merry Christmas and Happy New year ! Sebastian, Thanks alot for this Christmas present. I was able to test -RT 4.4-rc6-rt1 Kernel on ARM TI am437x-gpevm (UP) 1) UP build is broken, so there are two fixes. 2) I can boot using very minimal rootfs 3) Seems there are some problem with HIGHMEM :(. System crashes if I'm trying to run hackbench (see log 1). I can run hackbench only if HIGHMEM is disabled. I've also tried to disable CONFIG_CPU_SW_DOMAIN_PAN, CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT, and CONFIG_CPUSETS, before disabling HIGHMEM. Sorry, I'll not able to investigate it further because of Christmas holidays here. 4) Could we revert commit 4fa5422 'ARM: OMAP2: Drop the concept of certain power domains not being able to lose context.'? It's not required for 4.4-rt wakeup and introduces build warnings.
