It selectively grants realtime permissions to specific user groups or applications. This release provides the kernel patch formerly included in Andrew Morton's kernel development tree. This module is no longer available there, so I am releasing it for download via SourceForge. The kernel developers prefer their own rlimits solution for granting realtime privileges. Since that is their responsibility, I defer to their feelings. Since their solution requires PAM updates which have been very slow to appear in end-user distributions, I continue to provide this (simpler) solution via SourceForge for those who need it. There are no new features. You need not update, if an older version still works for you. This patch is not actively being developed, but I will continue to provide support as needed for the many users of distributions still lacking the required PAM updates for the rlimits solution preferred by the kernel developers. This release only supports kernel version 2.6.6 and newer. For older kernels, realtime-lsm-0.1.1 is still available. This LSM was written by Torben Hohn and Jack O'Quin, who make no warranty concerning the safety, security or even stability of your system when using it.
