Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v5.9.1-rt20 patch set.
Changes since v5.9.1-rt19:
- Tiny update to the rtmutex patches (make __read_rt_trylock()
static).
- The test_lockup module failed to compile. Reported by Fernando
Lopez-Lezcano.
- The `kcompactd' daemon together with MEMCG could have accessed
per-CPU variables in preemtible context.
- The patch for the crash in the block layer (previously reported by
David Runge) has been replaced with another set of patches which
were submitted upstream.
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.
The delta patch against v5.9.1-rt19 is appended below and can be found here:
https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.9/incr/patch-5.9.1-rt19-rt20.patch.xz
You can get this release via the git tree at:
