i have released the -U9.3 Real-Time Preemption patch, which can be
downloaded from:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/realtime-preempt/
this too is a fixes-only release.
Changes since -U9.2:
- tons more driver/mutex/completion conversion done by Thomas Gleixner
for: ppp, ipmi, parport/ieeee1284, scsi, hotplug, and more.
- iptables/netfilter deadlock fix, this should fix the bug reported by
Michal Schmidt.
- .config housekeeping: disallow the turning off of PREEMPT_BKL when
PREEMPT_REALTIME is on. This solves the build error reported by
Matthew L Foster.
- print the full stacktrace of the current task in the deadlock
detector and dont use show_stack(). This explains some of the weird
partial stackdumps reported.
- some more minor updates to the case when the deadlock detector turns
itself off due to reaching the limit. We kept the spinlock locked.
to create a -U9.3 tree from scratch, the patching order is:
