These together could fix most of the timer warnings and annoyances reported for 2.6.14-rc5-rt kernels. In particular the new TSC-synchronization code could fix SMP systems: the upstream TSC synchronization method is fine for 1 usec resolution, but it was not good enough for 1 nsec resolution and likely caused the SMP bugs reported by Fernando Lopez-Lezcano and Rui Nuno Capela. Please re-report any bugs that remain. Changes since 2.6.14-rc5-rt1: - GTOD -B9 (John Stultz) - ktimer updates (Thomas Gleixner, me) - ktimer debugging check fixes (Steven Rostedt) - smarter TSC synchronization on SMP - we now rely on it for nsecs (me) - x64 build fix (reported by Mark Knecht) - tracing fix (reported by Florian Schmidt) - rtc histogram fixes (K.R. Foley) - merge to 2.6.14 to build a 2.6.14-rt1 tree, the following patches should be applied: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.14.tar.bz2 http://redhat.com/~mingo/realtime-preempt/patch-2.6.14-rt1 Ingo - 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/
