[ANNOUNCE] v5.9.1-rt19
Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v5.9.1-rt19 patch set.
Changes since v5.9.1-rt18:
- Mike Galbraith reported a possible circular locking dependency with
a seqcount. Backported a patch from upstream solving the issue.
- David Runge reported a crash in the block layer.
- The migrate-disable series by Peter Zijlstra has been update to v4.
- Mike Galbraith a possible possible hang due to the new printk code.
Dropped a patch from the printk code which was causing the problem
as suggested by John Ogness.
- The rtmutex clean up in v5.9-rc8-rt12 restructured the code path and
removed the blk_schedule_flush_plug() invocation from the locking
path. It turns out that it is still required and has been added
back.
- A small rtmutex related clean up:
- Remove rt_mutex_lock_killable(), it has no users.
- Use _mutex_lock_io_nested() for _mutex_lock_io() to avoid
duplicated code.
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.
