Hi Shane, 

The LTTng kernel tracer works with a range of Preempt-RT kernel versions. 
It is tested in CI on the Preempt-RT kernel branches currently maintained 
by preempt-rt developers. However, it does not currently cover the 
3.8.13-rt27.34 kernel listed on the RHEL page, and the EfficiOS 
packages for RHEL do not currently target their Preempt-RT kernel. 

Thanks, 

Mathieu
