Hi,

I'm working with the arago omapl1 kernel on a custom OMAP-L138 board.

http://arago-project.org/git/projects/?p=linux-omapl1.git

Recently I made some testing with the PREEMPT_RT patches (that were also
applied in a branch in the arago kernel). The Kernel seems to behave
correctly but I have issues with the GPIO interface. E.G. I'm using the
"gpio-keys" and "matrix-keypad" drivers and they don't behave correctly.
The symptoms are :

Just after boot, I can press a button attached to a GPIO and get an
event through the input subsystem, but after a few presses (few being
random) the button doesn't generate an event any-more. (the interrupt is
also not reported in /proc/interrupts).

By browsing the mailing list archives I saw these old patches for the
davinci tree and the omap tree :

http://linux.omap.com/pipermail/davinci-linux-open-source/2007-October/004283.html

http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=119634477133936&w=2

(both are also listed here
https://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_Patch)

Of course quite a lot of things changed since 2.6.23 so it's difficult
to just adapt the patches (I don't even know if they are still required
or if I'm facing another issue).

Anyway just wanted to know if someone is having the same issues or if
there is a new version of the patches for the latest davinci kernel that
I may have missed.

Thank you,

Christophe
