This is a release of Preempt Real-time for ARM . It includes everything up to CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT , and all of the latency tracing except interrupts off timing. The timing also excludes syscalls. This patch includes only a port to OMAP boards. However, it should be straight forward to get it working on other boards.
The biggest point of discussion relates to the interrupts in threads implementation. It is largely identical to what is implemented in the generic irq handling. However, ARM doesn't not implement generic irq handling, and will not support it in the near future. I am not in support of two different threaded interrupt implementations. I recently made a proposal to separate the threaded interrupt handling from the generic irq handling, but I'm open to other ideas.
