Subject: [PATCH 0/6] x86: unify power/cpu_(32|64).c
Date: Sat, 04 Apr 2009 05:45:31 -0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <49D71E2B.5060501@larces.uece.br> (raw)

This patch series intends to unify the cpu_32.c and cpu_64.c files.

It's divided into 6 patches, that deal with the following:
#1 - unify headers
#2 - unify global variables
#3 - unify saving of processor state
#4 - unify restoring of processor state
#5 - unify copyright notes on the files
#6 - unify the files themselves, leaving only cpu.c

The code generated is _exactly_ the same as before, on both  i386 and
x86-64 architectures, so I don't expect this to introduce _any_ new bugs.
However, cleanups can be done in future, as for instance, the removal
of a few global variables in the 32 bit architecture. We are not dealing 
with those in this series.

The patches are against 2.6.29.

Thanks,

Sergio.
