Subject: [PATCH] 2.5.8 fix for percpu area
Date: Tue, 16 Apr 2002 12:57:17 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020416125716.A31123@in.ibm.com> (raw)
The percpu area stuff is broken in two places -
Missing stub for setup_per_cpu_areas() in the UP case
and missing definition of __per_cpu_data attribute in percpu.h.
Here is a patch that fixes these. Please apply.
Thanks
