[ANNOUNCE] 4.1.3-rt3
Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v4.1.3-rt3 patch set.
Changes since v4.1.3-rt2:
- fix compile of locktorture. Patch by Wolfgang M. Reimer.
- fix compile pid_namespace without lockdep on ARM. Patch by Grygorii
Strashko
- The annoying "cpufreq_stat_notifier_trans: No policy found" is finally
gone.
- xor / raid_pq
The max latency will increase into the ms range if the raid6_pq is
loaded. This should not matter under normal circumstances because that
module should only be loaded at boot time if required (and not while a
-RT task is active in production). It might also get loaded at
run-time manually.
Dropping the preempt_disable() might cause different results for the
individual implementations. People who don't care (load it at
run-time) don't need to load it at all. People who care (load it boot
time) would prefer to stick with the best implementation.
Therefore I think it is enough to document this (don't load it at run
time if you don't need it) and I cross it off my list. Patches are
welcome if someone needs / has an improvement.
Known issues:
- bcache is disabled.
- CPU hotplug works in general. Steven's test script however
deadlocks usually on the second invocation.
