I am trying to install Real time patch on ubuntu 20.04 I followed many steps and for each trial it took about 4 hours to complete. Unfortunately none of these trials worked (in the links below). I really appreciate if you could advice me with exact steps to follow as I am new guy in using Linux. Thank you very much.

I was able to build the PREEMPT-RT kernel on Ubuntu 20.04 mostly based on this guide as follows:

sudo apt install build-essential git libssl-dev libelf-dev flex bison

Download kernel source and patch for that version:

wget https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.4.143.tar.xz
wget https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.4/patch-5.4.143-rt64-rc2.patch.xz

Unpack and apply patches:

tar -xf linux-5.4.143.tar.xz
cd linux-5.4.143
xzcat ../patch-5.4.143-rt64-rc2.patch.xz | patch -p1

Configure, and when asked for Preemption Model select the Fully Preemptible Kernel. Accept the default value for the rest:

cp /boot/config-5.4.0-81-generic .config
make oldconfig

Edit the .config file and change CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS="debian/canonical-certs.pem" to CONFIG_SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS=""

Build kernel:

make -j8 deb-pkg

Install the generated packages, and reboot your system.

sudo dpkg -i ../linux-headers-5.4.143-rt64-rc2_5.4.143-rt64-rc2-1_amd64.deb ../linux-image-5.4.143-rt64-rc2_5.4.143-rt64-rc2-1_amd64.deb ../linux-libc-dev_5.4.143-rt64-rc2-1_amd64.deb

After reboot you should be able to see something like this:

# uname -a
Linux vod 5.4.143-rt64-rc2 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Tue Sep 7 20:19:55 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The guide suggests a few other steps but I haven't tested them yet.

It is interesting to do: `make menuconfig` and search for PREEMPT_RT and set it to “Fully Preemptible Kernel (RT)” if that is what you want. Otherwise you do not get the benefits of PREEMP_RT

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
