Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v5.6.4-rt3 patch set.
Changes since v5.6.4-rt2:
- The printk thread could schedule where it is not appropriate.
Affects only PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY. Reported by kernel test robot,
patched by John Ogness.
- The initialization of nohz_full_kick_work triggered a warning.
Reported by kbuild test robot.
- Patch by patch compilation could fail to compile in the fs/proc due
to a missing header file. Reported by kbuild test robot.
- The cached signal struct could lead to a double free of another data
structure. Reported by Daniel Wagner, patch by Matt Fleming.
Known issues
- It has been pointed out that due to changes to the printk code the
internal buffer representation changed. This is only an issue if tools
like `crash' are used to extract the printk buffer from a kernel memory
image.
The delta patch against v5.6.4-rt2 is appended below and can be found here:
