From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Alex Williamson Date: Mon, 07 Jun 2004 16:22:25 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] time to delete McKinley A-stepping code? Message-Id: <1086625345.4713.8.camel@tdi> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org The patch below removes the config option and one bit of code for McKinley A0/A1 CPU workarounds. These CPUs were never used in production, and IIRC this workaround really only affected X11. If you happen to still be running X11 on an very, very early McKinley prototype box, speakup or your graphics are going to start looking a little strange.
