Subject: [Buildroot] [PATCH 1/9] rt-tests: mention that NPTL thread implementation is needed
Date: Sun, 24 Mar 2013 19:19:22 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364149170-5521-2-git-send-email-thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1364149170-5521-1-git-send-email-thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>

This patch superseds http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/150161/, but
does it in a different way. Since we don't have a way of selecting the
thread implementation for external toolchains, and it sounds a bit too
heavy to add new config options just for the sake of rt-tests, we
instead simply add some help text to the rt-tests package explaining
that NPTL thread implementation is needed.
