I-pipe 2.6.12-v0.9-02

The interrupt pipeline patch v0.9-02 has been released, fixing a latency spot and a bug in the deferred printk() mechanism.

A split version of the patch for x86, ppc32 and ia64 is available here: http://download.gna.org/adeos/patches/v2.6/ipipe/split/

Patch sequence to build a Linux 2.6.12 tree with I-pipe support:

Will this then work with emc? emc, when run, loads the adeos stuff, then unloads it when its stopped. emc being the linux cnc machine controller.

If it will, I'd like to play with it on a bdi-4.20 install.

Or is this a seperate patch?

Cheers, Gene

This will be a separate patch against the I-pipe, adding the missing bits to support what emc and the like need, in order to run the real-time extension they rely on. The I-pipe patch series consists of largely reworked Adeos patches only retaining the interrupt pipeline code from its ancestor. We need a few other things to support what those real-time extension need to fully cooperate with Linux (which goes beyond just interposing on interrupts actually).
