Subject: [PATCH 0/8] x86-32 CPU configuration cleanups
Date: Fri, 22 May 2026 16:19:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260522141959.1071595-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

Hi Ingo,

Here are some follow-ups to your x86-32 CPU level changes based on
patches I did last year but rebased onto current linux-next.

The first four just drop code that is no longer relevant now that Élan
is gone and all CPUs support both TSC and CX8.

The other four patches change the CPU configuration to be more like
x86-64 and other architectures where all kernels are expected to be
generic by default.  I did keep the distinction between i586 and i686
class, but everything else is now just an optimization, building e.g. for
CONFIG_MATOM will still run on all other i686 class CPUs, and picking
any i586-class option will work on everything.

      Arnd

Arnd Bergmann (8):
  x86: remove ts5500 platforms support
  x86: remove AMD Élan remnants
  x86: make TSC usage unconditional
  x86: make CX8 usage unconditional
  x86: remove dependencies on CONFIG_M... CPU options
  x86: require minimum 64 byte cache lines
  x86: remove dependencies on per-CPU options
  x86: simplify 32-bit instruction set selection
