[PATCH v1] man/man2/outb.2: Remove obsolete note about optimizations

[Alejandro Colomar <alx@kernel.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1493 bytes --]

It seems this was necessary due to an old glibc bug, fixed in glibc.git
994cc0ea88ce (2000-08-23; "(_EXTERN_INLINE): Remove. Use static __inline
instead of _EXTERN_INLINE.").

Hi Arnd,

Thanks for confirming!  I've taken that as an 'Acked-by'.

I'll also prepare a commit for mentioning the non-portability, and the
archs that support this.  Thanks for that suggestion!


Have a lovely day!
Alex
