[ANNOUNCE] 4.4.12-rt20

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Jul 14 2016 - 10:57:03 EST



Dear RT Folks,

I'm pleased to announce the 4.4.12-rt20 stable release.


You can get this release via the git tree at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git

branch: v4.4-rt
Head SHA1: b4059f165a21ace3e150cf8e14752bb05f27137b


Or to build 4.4.12-rt20 directly, the following patches should be applied:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-4.4.tar.xz

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/patch-4.4.12.xz

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/patch-4.4.12-rt20.patch.xz



You can also build from 4.4.12-rt19 by applying the incremental patch:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.4/incr/patch-4.4.12-rt19-rt20.patch.xz



Enjoy,

-- Steve


Changes from v4.4.12-rt19:

---

Luiz Capitulino (1):
mm: perform lru_add_drain_all() remotely

Mike Galbraith (1):
work-simple: Rename work-simple.[ch] to swork.[ch] for consistency

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior (2):
locallock: add local_lock_on()
trace: correct off by one while recording the trace-event

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) (1):
Linux 4.4.12-rt20
