Subject: [-mm patch] i386: enable REGPARM by default
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2005 22:09:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050624200916.GJ6656@stusta.de> (raw)

This patch should _not_ go into Linus' tree.

At some time in the future, we want to unconditionally enable REGPARM on 
i386.

Let's give it a bit broader testing coverage among -mm users.

This patch:
- removes the dependency of REGPARM on EXPERIMENTAL
- let REGPARM default to y

This patch assumes that people who use -mm are willing to test some more 
experimental features.

After this patch, REGPARM is still a config option users can disable.

 	Compile the kernel with -mregparm=3. This uses a different ABI
 	and passes the first three arguments of a function call in registers.
