| |
the -H7 patch is available:
http://redhat.com/~mingo/O(1)-scheduler/sched-O1-2.5.2-pre11-H7.patch http://redhat.com/~mingo/O(1)-scheduler/sched-O1-2.4.17-H7.patch
there is an important SMP fix in this release, found by Anton Blanchard: double-spin_unlock()ing triggered oopses on high-end SMP boxes.
stability status: all reported problems were fixed by -H6, the only problem remaining was Anton's SMP crashes, which should be fixed in this -H7 patch.
Changes between -H6 and -H7:
- Anton Blanchard: fix double spin_unlock in sched.c. This fixes a high-end SMP oops he saw.
- William Lee Irwin III: fix mwave's ->nice code.
- cleanup: mmu_context.h renamed to sched.h, as suggested by Richard Henderson.
- added a irqs_enabled() macro to the x86 tree, to simplify irq.c.
Bug reports, comments, suggestions welcome.
Ingo
