I think the main difference between zen and zen-rt is the CPU scheduler, with the -rt one allowing full preemption, and maybe other stuff from -rt. Things like IRQ threading and preemptible RCU are included in master too.

http://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page for reading.

I havent used -rt since I decided to switch to uvesafb as framebuffer driver, it simply doesn't work in -rt. No matter if static or as module. No matter if "vanilla" -rt or zen-rt.

Has anyone else had this issue when trying to compile master-devel 2.6.25?
Code:

  AS      arch/x86/lib/putuser_64.o
  AS      arch/x86/lib/rwlock_64.o
  AS      arch/x86/lib/thunk_64.o
  CC      arch/x86/lib/usercopy_64.o
  AR      arch/x86/lib/lib.a
  LD      vmlinux.o
  MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: modpost: Found 28 section mismatch(es).
To see full details build your kernel with:
'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'
  GEN     .version
  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
  UPD     include/linux/compile.h
  CC      init/version.o
  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o: In function `acpi_save_state_mem':
(.text+0x1017c): undefined reference to `setup_trampoline'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1


Where should I look to fix this issue? I have tried 'make clean' but that didn't help.

Also does anyone have 2.6.25 running with any version of ati-drivers??

Thanks in advance!!

Hi folks.

Anybody tried the preempt-benchmark test.

http://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Preemption_Test

WIth the zen-gaming option configured it shows

Stats: [min: 4us @ row 1] [max: 32us @ row 97] {ave: 6us]

Meaning 6us latency between processes on a Core Duo 2.1Ghz.

Would be nice to see some others benchmarks over here.

However:
Strange though. First the tool reports the results then the tool also states it failed with 62 errors. I am wondering if the results are reliable at all. (Does anybody know the problem?)
Further comment : The rt-wiki is not really up2date.

Cheers
KLS

math_roc: the repository has lots of branches for every feature that zen includes.

We're moving to a new (and faster) git server so right now we can't update the tree.
