I did a test using the latest kernel from
https://github.com/beagleboard/kernel/blob/3.8/configs/beaglebone and the
kernel configuration I posted this morning. To load the cpu I used stress
--cpu 1 & cyclictest -l1000 -m -n -t1 -p99 -i400 -h400 -q. I have
attached the output of cyclictest a
I fully understand why it is a bad idea to change the defaul kernel
configuration for kernel 3.8. But I think it might be possible to consider
such a change for kernel 3.12 or a future kernel version. I'm sure there
are lots of people out there who would like that.

Of course every user can create his own kernel coniguration or even modify
the Linux kernel in any way he wants. But if there is any problem he's
beeing left alone. I think it would be much better to have a default kernel
configuration which at least provides simple PREEMPT support. That might
There's PREEMPT_RT, and there's PREEMPT. *ALL* Linux kernels have
PREEMPT available now. It sounds like you're just complaining that the
kernel was built with a different option than you want. Simply rebuild
the kernel and set CONFIG_PREEMPT instead of CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY:

Hi Charles,
the PREEMPT_RT patches can now be applied to the BBB kernel. As John3909
suggested there is a ready to use patch script available from OSADL.
Compiling a BBB kernel 3.12.10-rt15 is quick and easy. But unfortunately,
it requires the use of kernel 3.12.x which causes problems with the

There is a C compiler wh
Be careful of applying x86 experience to the ARM. PREEMPT_RT requires
well written driver code that is "high-performance SMP friendly" in
order to run well. PREEMPT_RT on the x86 works so well because a *LOT*
of smart people have been working very hard to get maximum performance
out of the multi-
Only PREEMPT_RT allows access to the full Linux functionality. Xenomai uses
a dual kernel concept which is very limited. All custom device drivers need
be design to fit into the Xenomai concept which makes things even worse.
The performance gain of Xenomai compared to that of PREEMPt_RT is
negl
No, the PRUSS unit is not a solution because support for it is even worse.
It's not a solution to program in assembler. If we had PREEMPT_RT we could
use the full Linux functionality. That's the way to go.

While this may be answer to the original poster's question, it is of no
