Hello RT Folks!

I'm pleased to announce the 5.4.302-rt104 stable release.

This release is just an update to the new stable 5.4.302
version and no RT specific changes have been made.

NOTE: This is the final 5.4 stable-rt kernel. Because the upstream 5.4
stable kernel has reached end-of-life, so now has the 5.4 stable-rt
kernel, as expected.

If you're still using the 5.4 stable-rt kernel, you should probably
upgrade to a newer supported version.

You can get this release via the git tree at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git

branch: v5.4-rt
Head SHA1: 4214d1e5ba9a0b07119b2897c19fb75a69931017

Or to build 5.4.302-rt104 directly, the following patches should be applied:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.4.tar.xz

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/patch-5.4.302.xz

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.4/patch-5.4.302-rt104.patch.xz

Enjoy!

Tom
