Subject: [RFC] arm:consider THUMB and BE endian kernel build
Date: Mon, 18 May 2015 10:46:23 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5559527F.9090300@gmail.com> (raw)
this patch fix the function in kernel_thread(),
when kernel is build as THUMB2 or BE8 endian, we should
also set the correct bit in CPSR, so that kernel can return to
the correct state to execute.
