Recently ? As for Kernel 2.6 there has always been too much
development for a stable release IMO, so I still prefer 2.4,
but that's a solely personal opinion. On the other hand, 2.6
has been quite stable for me (desktop and devel-stress-testing).
I've not talked about instability for 2.6, but rather significant changes in some
low-level layers. Incidentally, some of them were triggered by portion of the
PREEMPT_RT infrastructure leaking to the vanilla kernel. Unfortunately, this
sometimes causes issues you have to deal with when adapting Adeos to each new release.
This combo cannot be done overnight,
I was not complaining - just curious :-)
This work is likely going to start by a test campaign evaluating
PREEMPT_RT's and Xeno's nucleus performances in a series of simple and
relevant test cases over different ranges of platforms, so that we could
Testing ?
FWIW, I've just completed another page about the vanilla vs.
preempt_rt thing:

If you have the one or another additional stress test, I'd be more
