if it's not listed in GENERIC (even commented out) we don't really think it's ready to use. At all. If you do feel like testing (and maybe, just maybe, melting your entire system) ... it's not that hard to copy the GENERIC config and add RTHREADS. it's just another "option". > The goal of my exercise is to check how much more responsive RTHREADS > is vs PTHREADS scheduler on network level (i.e. shorter ping > _response_ times, etc). not helpful at all. ping replies are handled in kernel. > I have tried to apply the patch to fresh source, only to see all 5 steps > fail. Where did you get the patch from - mail? How did you get it on to your system - cut'n'paste? I'm gonna guess you have broken line-endings or other whitespace problems. Try "patch -lC" to ignore whitespace changes and test if that applies. If so, maybe re-evaluate the process you use for getting patches on to your system. CK -- GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
