What is to become concerning real time in Linux kernel?

Hello everybody out there!

As a user of soft real-time Linux kernel, I have some question about
its future.

During Real Time Linux Workshop in November 2013, developers involved
in the real-time patch have indicated the project will be done in 2014, “one way or another” (<http://lwn.net/Articles/572740/>). In this workshop, it has also been said that 95 % of the real-time work was already upstream.

The question was how will it be done? In considering that the 95 % is
good enough? Get the rest of the code upstream – which imply an important effort and several people involved in it? Something between these two options?

As SCHED_DEADLINE has been incorporated into Linux 3.14 kernel
(<http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTU3Njk>), it seems to me that it has been decided to get some more code upstream. Still, the question remains: what way will be the project done?

Does anyone have any more information about it? As for my part, I
cannot find anything more.

Regards.

Yoann
