Hi Thomas,

We are pleased to announce the 2.6.24.7-rt16 tree, which can be

Information on the RT patch can be found at:

This is a bugfix update:

- remove m68knommu merge artifacts (tglx)

- fix x86_64 UP build (Peter Zijlstra)

- powerpc ftrace backport (tglx)

Backport? It's not yet available for 2.6.25.

- fix long standing NFS missing preemption check (tglx)

This is not a MPC5200 specific problem, it affects all
architectures, but was not noticed for a long time as the race
window is extremly tight.

This fix finally solves my latency issues with the MPC5200, also with 2.6.25.8-rt7. After 2 hours the latency is still below 150us for both versions. Thanks a lot for your effort.

Wolfgang.
