Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v5.9-rc2-rt1 patch set.
Changes since v5.6.19-rt12:
- Rebase to v5.9-rc2
- The seqcount related patches have been replaced on top of the seqcount series by Ahmed S. Darwis which landed mainline.
- The posix-timer patches have been dropped because upstream changes cover all of was needed on RT's side. As a result RT relies on HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK. This is provided only by x86. The RT patch provides this option for ARM/ARM64/POWERPC as long as KVM is disabled. The reason is that the task work must be handled before KVM returns to guest.
Known issues - It has been pointed out that due to changes to the printk code the internal buffer representation changed. This is only an issue if tools like `crash' are used to extract the printk buffer from a kernel memory image.
You can get this release via the git tree at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v5.9-rc2-rt1
