Interview With Preemptible Kernel Patch Maintainer, Robert Love

In this interview, LinuxDevices.com founder and executive editor Rick Lehrbaum chats with Robert Love, the principal maintainer of an increasingly popular kernel-preemption patch that improves the real-time responsiveness of the Linux kernel. Love describes his role in the project, explains why the preemption enhancement is important to a broad range of Linux applications beyond just embedded/real-time (including end-users’ desktops), and shares his vision of the future of Linux in the embedded and desktop markets.” Read the very interesting interview at LinuxDevices.
