I didn't plan on ever using that mode in Linux, so there really isn't any need for them to be defined. I'm also thinking we should move the cache control register definitions to 'cache.h', to stop the ever growing size of processor.h. I'm also a minimalist programmer.....why do we define all of this crap if we don't use it? If you want to know how _all_ of the registers and bits are used, read the programming manual for the processor....... Thanks. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
