| |
Here is the changelog of http://www.redhat.com/~mingo/lowprio-2.2.14-B1.
Changes since lowlatency-2.2.13-A1 (many thanks go to William Montgomery who collected most of these bugfixes):
- fixed trivial bug in #define udelay_resched(n) (William Montgomery)
- fixed cpu idle race condition which allowed idle task to effectively have higher priority than SCHED_FIFO task. (Jamie Lokier and William Montgomery)
- fixed race in setting need_resched during task switching (me)
- fixed bottom half processing to always allow bottom half processing have priority over user processes. (Andrea Arcangeli and me)
- fixed signal handling so that a need_resched after a do_signal is properly noticed. (me)
- fixed ret_with_resched race which occurs when an intr sets need_resched _after_ it was checked. (Jamie Lokier)
- ported to 2.2.14 (me)
Comments, reports welcome.
