Subject: [ANNOUNCE] 3.18.13-rt9
Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v3.18.13-rt9 patch set.
Changes since v3.18.13-rt8
- arm64 support. Patches by Anders Roxell.
- fix for XFS live-stall by Steven Rostedt.
- kvm mpic emulation for e500 (PPC) CPUs disabled. It is now known not
to work perfectly. It is been worked on a final (workin) solution.
Patch sent by Bogdan Purcareata.
- A dead lock fix for ftrace noticed and fixed by Jan Kiszka.
Known issues:
- bcache is disabled.
- CPU hotplug works in general. Steven's test script however
deadlocks usually on the second invocation.
- xor / raid_pq
I had max latency jumping up to 67563us on one CPU while the next
lower max was 58us. I tracked it down to module's init code of
xor and raid_pq. Both disable preemption while measuring the
performance of the individual implementation.
The delta patch against 3.18.13-rt8 is appended below and can be found here:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.18/incr/patch-3.18.13-rt8-rt9.patch.xz
The RT patch against 3.18.13 can be found here:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.18/patch-3.18.13-rt9.patch.xz
