End of > story, nothing to fix here. Well, the patch that started this thread.. timers-do-not-raise-softirq-unconditionally.patch ..(attributed to you) was picked up in -rt (perhaps erroneously) to get nohz_full working, and then reverted due to the deadlock detector getting properly angry. All of this is about reinstating it. I posted a patchlet to simply subtract softirqd from the ->nr_running check, which gets nohz_full working in -rt sans illegal activity. -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
