please read what i wrote: in the first section above i am talking about Thomas' -hrt tree and its track record. Thomas' tree is more than a year old and has an excellent track record. In the last sentence i was talking about this latest iteration of his -hrt tree, which i released as part of -rt yesterday. (but which i have tested internally longer than that, prior release.) > Since this new release has a fair amount of new code it's not totally > fair to says "it's been in -rt for a while". Thomas' -hrt tree has been in -rt for over a year. > If stability is a question, -rt10 does currently compile for my test > config, due to this new HRT introduction. [...] isnt your test config ARM? If it's x86 or x86_64 then please send me a bugreport about it. rt10 wont compile on non-i686 and non-x86_64 because their clockevents drivers have not been updated yet (but should be trivial). In any case, this is an -rt internal matter that has no relevance on the -mm submission, i'm not sure why you are bringing it up. the -mm queue Thomas sent is for i686 - other architectures wont use clockevents and they are expected to build and boot just fine. > My queue has always been 90% clean up, some of that is moving code > around. [...] in the -rt tree i'm tracking the high-res code that has been started by Thomas in mid-2005. In the past 1.5 years, 90%+ of the bugfixes to high-res timers issues in -rt came from Thomas and this has been about the 10th major iteration to his codebase. If you have cleanups to his code then please work with Thomas to get your changes into his tree.
