Hello RT-list!
I'm pleased to announce the 4.9.257-rt171 stable release.
Note that there was a futex/mutex code collision during the merge of v4.9-257.
Even though I believe that it's fixed correctly, anyone with suspicions about
futex/rtmutex behavior in this release should start looking there.
You can get this release via the git tree at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git
branch: v4.9-rt
Head SHA1: 945132447043a93a231db68172d26f08ff977987
Or to build 4.9.257-rt171 directly, the following patches should be applied:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/linux-4.9.tar.xz
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/patch-4.9.257.xz
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.9/patch-4.9.257-rt171.patch.xz
Enjoy!
