Latest "sched/rt" Commits Point To PREEMPT_RT Potentially Being Ready For Linux 6.12
Excitement is building that the real-time kernel 'PREEMPT_RT' support might finally be ready for the mainline kernel as soon as the upcoming Linux 6.12 merge window
It will be interesting to see if that long-awaited day finally comes this month but recently noted patches have now been queued into tip/tip.git's "sched/rt" branch ahead of the Linux 6.12 merge window. From there they could potentially be submitted as part of the material coming up in the Linux 6.12 merge window.
