Subject: [-mm patch] i386: enable REGPARM by default
Date: Mon, 30 May 2005 02:28:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050530002833.GL10441@stusta.de> (raw)
This patch should _not_ go into Linus' tree.
At some time in the future, we want to unconditionally enable REGPARM on
i386.
Let's give it a bit broader testing coverage among -mm users.
This patch:
- removes the dependency of REGPARM on EXPERIMENTAL
- let REGPARM default to y
This patch assumes that people who use -mm are willing to test some more
experimental features.
After this patch, REGPARM is still a config option users can disable.

Compile the kernel with -mregparm=3. This uses a different ABI
and passes the first three arguments of a function call in registers.
