I'm trying to debug an issue on a kernel with the RT patches, and it's 
causing a hang where magic-sysrq does not work.

I'd like to clarify something though...is the serial console interrupt 
threaded?  If it is, then something that prevents the scheduler from 
running could result in magic-sysrq not functioning, but if it isn't 
then I think that would point to an interrupt problem.

Anyone know for sure?

Thanks,
Chris

The interrupt is threaded, the magic-sysrq happens threaded then. Any
printk in non-preemptible region will be delayed until preemptible
region is reached (or delayed until the next print from preeptible
region).
