[patch 0/4] 3.12-stable rtmutex @stable backports

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Seems the below stable tagged rtmutex fixes won't go further back than
3.14 unless someone does the leg work of making them applicable.

Ergo, this series contains..

397335f0 rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for real
82084984 rtmutex: Detect changes in the pi lock chain
3d5c9340 rtmutex: Handle deadlock detection smarter
27e35715 rtmutex: Plug slow unlock race

With..

0c106173 rtmutex: Document rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() 

..applied prior, the series can be applied at least as far back as 3.0
should anyone desire to do so.

I tested by applying them to 3.12-stable, merge 3.12-rt, beat the result
enthusiastically, switch to 3.0-stable, repeat.  Both ends appear fine,
so in between should be fine as well should Thomas ack them.
