From: Frank Rowand
Date: Wed May 16 2012 - 21:06:13 EST



Reverse preempt-rt-allow-immediate-magic-sysrq-output-for-preempt_rt_full.patch

The problem addressed by that patch does not exist after applying
console-make-rt-friendly-update.patch

- Allow the output from Magic SysRq to be output immediately, even if
- this causes large latencies. This can cause performance problems
- for real-time processes.
-
- If PREEMPT_RT_FULL, printk() will not try to acquire the console lock
- when interrupts or preemption are disabled. If the console lock is
- not acquired the printk() output will be buffered, but will not be
- output immediately. Some drivers call into the Magic SysRq code
- with interrupts or preemption disabled, so the output of Magic SysRq
- will be buffered instead of printing immediately if this option is
- not selected.
-
- Even with this option selected, Magic SysRq output will be delayed
- if the attempt to acquire the console lock fails.
