Hello RT-list!
I'm pleased to announce the 4.4.229-rt200 stable release.
This release is just an update to the new stable 4.4.215 version.
Note: This update required dealing with a conflict in net/core/dev.c, where devnet_rename_seq was moved from a seqence count to an RWSEM and renamed to devnet_rename_sem. If you encounter runtime issues that show tracebacks in net/core/dev.c, please let me know.
Patch "net: Add a mutex around devnet_rename_seq" dropped in favour of 602c47fbf46b ("net: core: device_rename: Use rwsem instead of a seqcount")
Known issues:
sigwaittest with hackbench as workload is able to trigger a crash on x86_64, the same as reported for the v4.4.220-rt196 release. The crash seems to be triggered by a BPF program. IIRC, BPF was never supported in v4.4-rt and I just forgot to disable in my configuration.
You can get this release via the git tree at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git
branch: v4.4-rt Head SHA1: dd9655ee04bfb54f781974e3074a0caeb2423623
Or to build 4.4.229-rt200 directly, the following patches should be applied:
