Dear RT Folks, This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 4.4.50-rt63-rc1. Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too. The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate). The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the final release is. If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release on 3/10/2017. **** NOTE **** Julia Cartwright has kindly offered to take over maintaining v4.1-rt. She will be sending out and maintaining patches and the v4.1-rt git tree. Thank you Julia! **** **** **** Enjoy, -- Steve To build 4.4.50-rt63-rc1 directly, the following patches should be applied: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/linux-4.4.tar.xz http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/patch-4.4.50.xz http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/patch-4.4.50-rt63-rc1.patch.xz You can also build from 4.4.50-rt62 by applying the incremental patch: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/incr/patch-4.4.50-rt62-rt63-rc1.patch.xz Changes from 4.4.50-rt62: --- Dan Murphy (1): lockdep: Fix compilation error for !CONFIG_MODULES and !CONFIG_SMP John Ogness (1): x86/mm/cpa: avoid wbinvd() for PREEMPT Julia Cartwright (1): pinctrl: qcom: Use raw spinlock variants Mike Galbraith (1): cpuset: Convert callback_lock to raw_spinlock_t Sebastian Andrzej Siewior (4): radix-tree: use local locks rt: Drop mutex_disable() on !DEBUG configs and the GPL suffix from export symbol sched/rt: Add a missing rescheduling point rt: Drop the removal of _GPL from rt_mutex_destroy()'s EXPORT_SYMBOL Steven Rostedt (VMware) (1): Linux 4.4.50-rt63-rc1 Thomas Gleixner (1): lockdep: Handle statically initialized PER_CPU locks proper ---- arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c | 8 +++++ drivers/pinctrl/qcom/pinctrl-msm.c | 48 +++++++++++++-------------- include/linux/module.h | 6 ++++ include/linux/mutex_rt.h | 5 +++ include/linux/percpu.h | 1 + include/linux/radix-tree.h | 12 ++----- kernel/cpuset.c | 66 +++++++++++++++++++------------------- kernel/locking/lockdep.c | 33 +++++++++++++------ kernel/module.c | 36 ++++++++++++++------- kernel/sched/deadline.c | 3 +- kernel/sched/rt.c | 3 +- lib/radix-tree.c | 23 +++++++------ localversion-rt | 2 +- mm/percpu.c | 37 +++++++++++++-------- 14 files changed, 166 insertions(+), 117 deletions(-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rt-users" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
