From ebce7cd30b3e00232c8be23d0f04d7c0599089b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Riley Andrews Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2014 17:36:36 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] android: binder: Change binder mutex to rtmutex. Surfaceflinger uses binder heavily to receive/send frames from applications while compositing the screen. Change the binder mutex to an rt mutex to minimize instances where high priority surfaceflinger binder work is blocked by lower priority binder ipc.
