Subject: [PATCH RT 0/3] Linux 3.2.57-rt84-rc1


Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.2.57-rt84-rc1.

Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too.

The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when
the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate).

The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the
final release is.

If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release
on 4/30/2014.

Enjoy,

-- Steve

More than two years our thin clients (about 5000 machines, Intel Atom, x86_32)
work with RCU_BOOST.

CONFIG_RCU_BOOST=y
CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_PRIO=80
CONFIG_RCU_BOOST_DELAY=400

Is this just a confirmation of having RCU_BOOST default y for
PREEMPT_RT is a good thing?

Thanks,
