Hello RT Folks!
I'm pleased to announce the 4.4.164-rt176 stable release.
This release is just an update to the new stable 4.4.164 version
and no RT specific changes have been made.
The previously reported cache line starvation bug has been resolved
via the stable tree (see https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?h=linux-4.4.y&id=97b8ca659ab410c6955da052592959244d041fa8)
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: v4.4-rt
Head SHA1: 726ccc5cab11ae1ac086642f022d0abf8cb85530
