[ANNOUNCE] v5.6.19-rt12
Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v5.6.19-rt12 patch set.
Changes since v5.6.19-rt11:
- Use a raw_spinlock_t in io-wq. This avoids acquiring a sleeping lock
in atomic context.
- Address ifnullfree.cocci warnings in printk. Patch by Julia Lawall.
- Add "dev: Defer free of skbs in flush_backlog" from upstream.
- As a result of the previous patch, the "skbufhead-raw-lock.patch"
can be shrunken by removing the now no longer required
softnet_data::tofree_queue and the special IRQ-off handling.
Known issues
- It has been pointed out that due to changes to the printk code the
internal buffer representation changed. This is only an issue if tools
like `crash' are used to extract the printk buffer from a kernel memory
image.
