I was trying to use another HRT clock source and couldn't get menuconfig to let me select acpi-pm-timer, turns out it has been disabled in arch/i386/Kconfig, but the description is still in the help...


# config HIGH_RES_TIMER_ACPI_PM
# bool "ACPI-pm-timer"

Is the pm timer incompatible with the RT portion of this patch?

Thanks,

it's a fixes-only release. Changes since 2.6.13-rc6-rt3:

- USB irq flags use cleanups (Alan Stern)

- RCU tasklist-lock fixes (Paul McKenney, Thomas Gleixner)

- HR-timers waitqueue splitup, better HRT latencies (Thomas Gleixner)

- latency tracer fixes, irq flags tracing cleanups (Steven Rostedt, me)

- NFSd BKL unlock fix (Steven Rostedt)

- stackfootprint-max-printer fix (Steven Rostedt)

- stop_machine fix (Steven Rostedt)

- lpptest fix (me)

- turned off IOAPIC_POSTFLUSH when CONFIG_X86_IOAPIC_FAST. Now with
Karsten's VIA fixes my testbox does not show PCI-POST weirnesses
anymore. In case of IRQ problems please turn off IOAPIC_FAST. (me)

to build a 2.6.13-rc6-rt9 tree, the following patches should be applied:
