Hello,

I removed it by mistake. I put it back after.

Xavier.

I don't understand why you removed this ebuild. It is for the last
rt-patch available here:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/

If it doesn't work for you, fix it or send a bug message, but don't
remove it. If it is no good raison to remove it, please reverse this
commit.

Ciao,
Dominique

P.S.: According to this thread on the LAD:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-audio-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg11801.html
linus merged the force threaded irq handlers. This means, that
the most important feature of the -rt patches is now in mainline.

Now, we have the 2.6.39-rc5 version at kernel.org. I don't know how it
work, but I think that in order to get the most of such a kernel, one
would have to add "threadirqs" to the kernel boot params and to follow
http://jackaudio.org/linux_group_sched
I also think that on the long run, RT_GROUP_SCHED will replace
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. And libcgroup is now in portage.

I am also curious to see if such mainline improvements will be
affected by the compilation failure metabug (like the rt-patch can be
affected): http://bugs.gentoo.org/20600
