[ANNOUNCE] 3.2.22-rt35

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Jul 16 2012 - 12:07:47 EST



Dear RT Folks,

I'm pleased to announce the 3.2.22-rt35 stable release.


You can get this release via the git tree at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git

Head SHA1: 852c3bd6c35aa3718de57c87f1a3bcd4dc69af3d


Or to build 3.2.22-rt35 directly, the following patches should be applied:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.2.tar.xz

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/patch-3.2.22.xz

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.2/patch-3.2.22-rt35.patch.xz


You can also build from 3.2.22-rt34 by applying the incremental patch:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.2/incr/patch-3.2.22-rt34-rt35.patch.xz


Note, I've upgraded to Evolution 3.4.3 on my Debian (testing) system,
and I've had nothing but trouble. It locks up and it no longer accesses
the address book. This has caused some issues in my work flow as I use
my address book and Evolution in the RT release process :-p

Enjoy,

-- Steve


Changes from 3.2.22-rt34:

---

Carsten Emde (4):
Latency histogramms: Cope with backwards running local trace clock
Latency histograms: Adjust timer, if already elapsed when programmed
Disable RT_GROUP_SCHED in PREEMPT_RT_FULL
Latency histograms: Detect another yet overlooked sharedprio condition

Mike Galbraith (1):
fs, jbd: pull your plug when waiting for space

Steven Rostedt (1):
Linux 3.2.22-rt35

Thomas Gleixner (1):
slab: Prevent local lock deadlock

Yong Zhang (1):
perf: Make swevent hrtimer run in irq instead of softirq
