I'm pleased to announce the v4.4-rc6-rt1 patch set. I tested it on my AMD A10, 64bit. Nothing exploded so far, filesystem is still there. I haven't tested it on anything else. Before someone asks: this does not mean it does *not* work on ARM I simply did not try it. If you are brave then download it, install it and have fun. If something breaks, please report it. If your machine starts blinking like a christmas tree while using the patch then *please* send a photo. Changes since v4.1.15-rt17: - rebase to v4.4-rc6 Known issues (inherited from v4.1-RT): - bcache stays disabled - CPU hotplug is not better than before - The netlink_release() OOPS, reported by Clark, is still on the list, but unsolved due to lack of information - Christoph Mathys reported a stall in cgroup locking code while using Linux containers. You can get this release via the git tree at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v4.4-rc6-rt1 The RT patch against 4.4-rc6 can be found here: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/patch-4.4-rc6-rt1.patch.xz The split quilt queue is available at: https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/patches-4.4-rc6-rt1.tar.xz
