[ANNOUNCE] 2.6.33-rc8-rt2

[Thomas Gleixner]

We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.

    - Update to linus latest

    - Fixes all over the place for the merge fallout

    - KVM fix from Jan

    - perf fix from Peter

    - tracer fixes from Carsten

Known issues:

    - the highmem problem which Fernando reported with i915 on 32bit
      i386 is not yet solved.

have a system with 32bit userspace and i915 handy further test this.

It seems like this switch statement should have a default case.

I haven't looked into it very closely but it seems like if you had all

When all config options are turned off then the file is not compiled

[ANNOUNCE] 2.6.33-rt3

[Thomas Gleixner]

We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.

    - Update to 2.6.33

    - rt fixes:

      	 Peter Zijlstra (1):
    	       highmem, -rt: Implement pfn and prot kmaps

	Thomas Gleixner (2):
      	       x86: pci: Prevent mmconfig memory corruption
      	       mmc: omap_hsmmc: Fix the locking mess

A note on the development process:

  The rt/2.6.33 branch is now stabilization only. The rt/head branch
  will follow linus tree from now on, so it will inherit all
  (mis)features which come in the merge window.

Download locations:
   
   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/

Git development branch:
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git rt/head

Git release branch:
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git rt/2.6.33

Gitweb:
   http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=shortlog;h=rt/2.6.33

Information on the RT patch can be found at:

   http://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page
 
To build the 2.6.33-rt3 tree, the following patches should be
applied:

Hi Xavier.
When I checked -rt tag currently, tag name is -rt4 based 2.6.33.
So, I changed -rt tag name to -rt4.
Test result is normal with 2.6.33-rt4 on
my desktop(Q6600, SSD64G, DDR2 2GRAM) at least.  :)

Thanks,

Hmm, I had to comment out a VM_BUG_ON for pkmap_count in mm/highmem.c,
looks like pkmap_count is not defined anywhere else?

Dear Thomas,

Thank you for notice about 2.6.33 based -rt3.

I tested system booting with linux-2.6.33-rt3 on my Q6600 based Desktop.
For reference, I am using Centos 5.4 rootFS.
As a result, I booted this version on my desktop successfully.

* Booting result of linux-2.6.33-rt3 on Q6600 PC. --> Passed.

[ANNOUNCE] 2.6.33-rt6

[Thomas Gleixner]

We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.

For those who wonder about -rt5. It's there as well, but the tag is
more or less a separation point.

Changes from -rt4 to -rt5:

  8fafaf5: v2.6.33-rt5
  f6e20d0: tracing: Define pid functions for all config combinations
  4216e30: vga console: Remove the CON_ATOMIC flag
  7033151: x86: Fix 32bit HIGHMEM=n compile
  c28c2c8: x86: highmem: Remove stale function prototype
  fb301a4: mm: highmem: Fix stale BUG_ON condition

Changes from -rt5 to -rt6:

 af5d4b6: v2.6.33-rt6
 1054085: Merge branch 'rt-2.6.33-queue' of git://dev.lemote.com/rt4ls into rt/2.6.33

 This brings MIPS back into the -RT world! 

  Thanks to Wu Zhangjin !!
 
 Note that the MIPS support is only tested on Loongson hardware so
 your milage with other MIPS incarnations may vary.

Known issues for -rt6:

  - load balancer induced latencies. Can be observed in extreme system
    overload situations (load avg > 1000), so probably not a real
    world issue, but still it shows a weak point.

  - rcu stalls on overload situations caused by exit_io_context() RCU
    read locked section which heavily contends on sleeping locks. Still
    under investigation.

2.6.33-rt6 on Beagle

[Chatterjee, Amit]

Hi,
	I am unable to boot the kernel (as available in this link - http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/rt/2.6.33) on Beagle board. Kernel is unable to uncompress itself & crashing. Tool chain used is - gcc version 4.4.1 (Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-67). I will check with older toolchain & keep it posted.

Regards,
Amit

Can you try to cherry-pick 5de813b6cd06460b337f9da9afe316823cf3ef45

The decompressor has a known bug in .33 on ARM.

  ab774e8: drivers/hwmon/coretemp.c: get TjMax value from MSR
  e8bfcca: drivers/hwmon/coretemp.c: detect the thermal sensors by CPUID
  a06a867: dcache: Prevent d_genocide() from decrementing d_count more than once
  bdeadaf: nfs: Avoid igrab deadlock.
  6976846: dcache: Fix select_parent dentry traversal locking
  1f0f6ec: powerpc: chrp/time.c fix preprocessor conditional

Bulk of changes comes from stable tree. The -rt related changes are
mostly fixes for the vfs fallout the rest are fixlets all over the
place and hardware enablement.

I'm still on 2.6.33.5-rt22 on powerpc, and have run into a couple
"sleeping function called from invalid context..." BUGs.   The first was
during system boot, second during a 'make'.

relevant code paths don't seem to have changed between -rt22 and -rt23,
so I think still valid.. :-)  

This is on a POWER7 system, which may have opened up some timing
windows, wrt previous runs on POWER6 systems.

Grr. I thought I had the SPARSE_IRQ stuff disabled on -rt, but seems
it came back somehow. Can you disable that, or does you machine depend
on it ?

I'm not sure whether it is required by the architecture.  I do see that
SPARSE_IRQ is disabled in arch/x86/Kconfig with a !PREEMPT_RT, but I
don't see an equivalent 'disable' in arch/powerpc/Kconfig.

Probably.. :-)   I'm running with the patch now, and no repeats of that
BUG yet.

I see it as "y" in my .config for a powerpc 405 build.  This appears to
run on my system (although I haven't loaded up the rt23 build on the
target yet - last one loaded up was rt22).

What should I expect to see different if SPARSE_IRQ is turned off?

The difference is that you can trigger "scheduling while atomic". The
warning Will has seen depends on debug options.

Yeah.

Thats a sample size of one (POWER7) system, but seems to have worked.

[ANNOUNCE] 2.6.33.6-rt26

[Thomas Gleixner]

We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.
 
Changes from 2.6.33.5-rt23 to 2.6.33.5-rt24:

  42edbcb: gianfar: Fix TX ring processing on SMP machines
  faf3581: timer_stats: Convert table_lock to raw_spin_lock
  654e404: hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove
  09fd768: hvc_console: Fix race between hvc_close and hvc_remove
  ea2d2a0: perf: Fix errors path in perf_output_begin()
  60bd946: KEYS: find_keyring_by_name() can gain access to a freed keyring
  b5ac516: tracing: Update the comm field in the right variable in update_max_tr
  77cb7c1: lockdep: Reduce stack_trace usage
  cee9ee0: powerpc: Disable sparse irq for RT
  c7dec16: powerpc: Enable interrupts in do_signal()

Changes from 2.6.33.5-rt24 to 2.6.33.5-rt25:

  ec646ea: vfs: Revert the scalability patches

Changes from 2.6.33.5-rt26 to 2.6.33.6-rt26:

  7e1af11: Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.33.y

Bulk of changes comes from the stable tree and from the big revert of
the VFS scalability patches. They looked promising, but the nasty
details bit us hard. We'll revisit them later.

There are some pending issues:
      - rtc_lock suspend/resume (working on a patch)
      - futex requeue_pi (patch available, needs testing/confirmation)
      - powerpc64 oddities (patch available, needs rework)

Download locations:
   
   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/

Git release branch:
   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git rt/2.6.33

Gitweb:
   http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=shortlog;h=rt/2.6.33

Information on the RT patch can be found at:

   http://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page

To build the 2.6.33.6-rt26 tree, the following patches should be
applied:

   http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.33.6.tar.bz2

Thanks Thomas,
but I have a problem applying the patch.
I get lots of ignored hunks and it ends and fails with:

2 out of 2 hunks ignored -- saving rejects to file sound/soc/codecs/wm8990.c.rej
patching file virt/kvm/kvm_main.c

I tried to build with my usual script, which just does:
patch -Np1 -i ../patch-2.6.33.6-rt26

Before that it applies the .6 patch, with the same command, without any hickup.
I don't know whether something is wrong with the patch or whether I did
something wrong.

Hi,

The patch applies OK to the kernel 2.6.33.5 tarball.  Either the patch
is just a misnamed RT patch update to 2.6.33.5 or it includes both this
and the 2.6.33.5-->2.6.33.6 incremental patch changes together and was
just generated against the wrong baseline.  So try it against 2.6.33.5
if you want to try something before the next patch is released.

Ah, thanks Darcy.
It's don't urgently need it, so I'll just wait for Thomas' response,
whether he'll upload a version against .6 or not. Either way is fine for
me.

Duh, I fat fingered my release script params. New version is uploaded,
will take a bit until it mirrors out to the public servers.

Sorry for the dumb question, but its not clear whether 'new version'
means 2.6.33.6-rt26 has been changed or 2.6.33.6-rt27 has been uploaded.
Which is it?

Hi Thomas,
Just want to know when there will be released RT patch for 2.6.34? We
have some tasks to patch RT to our local 2.6.34 tree.
Thanks

Enjoy !

This is probably the last update to the 33-rt series.

The next release will be based on 2.6.37, but I'm still in the middle
of a major overhaul of key compononents of the patch. This overhaul is
necessary to make progress in mainlining the missing bits and
pieces. I hope to have it ready not too long after the 2.6.37 mainline
release, but no promise.

At this point I want to say thanks to everyone who supported the
development of the -rt patches with testing, bugfixes, stable
backports etc. in the last years. I hope that I can rely on your help
for the upcoming 37 release and the ongoing effort to merge the patch
fully into the mainline.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

       Thomas

<SNIP>

Thanks for both the update as well as info on the next kernel. I've
been unable to use rt-sources for quite awhile as my new machine
requires at least 2.6.36 for disk controller reasons. I'll look
forward to getting back on the RT treadmill one day soon.

Cheers,
Mark

Great job Thomas, my frustration is to not know enough C to help this 
amazing project.
but I can try the last patch on Fedora10 64bits.

First of all: Thank YOU for maintaining the RT-patch and the huge
amount of effort you put into it!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and anyone else too!

Kind regards,

I'm testing it right now and it does seem to have fixed some stuff, for 
example I don't see any more errors when waking up from a sleep state. 
Anyway, I'll let you know of any problems...

Thanks a lot! (and also good to know about the plans for 2.6.37.x rt!)

So far so good...

A question: I need to find out the pid of the irq process that handles a 
particular audio device from the information available from udev (to 
dynamically change its rt priority).

AFAICT that is not really possible. I can find the irq number easily but 
if there is more than one device using that number then I'm sort of 
stuck. The naming of the irq processes for each card appear to be 
hardwired strings in the driver code that do not necessarily correspond 
to any other name in the driver itself.

Is there a connection between the two somewhere in /sys, /proc or 
anywhere else that I'm missing? (ie: which interrupt process corresponds 
to which driver?)
