Upgrade to 4.4.50-rt62
The current kernel is based on rt kernel v4.4.6-rt14. We will upgrade it to 4.4.50-rt62. The command to achieve it is: a) Clone a git repo from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git b) Get the diff between this two changesets: git diff 640eca2901f3435e616157b11379d3223a44b391 705619beeea1b0b48219a683fd1a901a86fdaf5e where the two commits are: [yjiang5@jnakajim-build linux-stable-rt]$ git show --oneline --name-only 640eca2901f3435e616157b11379d3223a44b391 640eca2901f3 v4.4.6-rt14 localversion-rt [yjiang5@jnakajim-build linux-stable-rt]$ git show --oneline --name-only 705619beeea1b0b48219a683fd1a901a86fdaf5e 705619beeea1 Linux 4.4.50-rt62 localversion-rt c) One patch has been backported thus revert the patch before applying. filterdiff -p1 -x scripts/package/Makefile ~/tmp/v4.4.6-rt14-4.4.50-rt62.diff |patch -p1 --dry-run Upstream status: backport Change-Id: I244d57a32f6066e5a5b9915f9fbf99e7bbca6e01 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@linux.intel.com>
