Peter Anvin" , Andrew Morton , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 0/2] x86: cleanup early per cpu variables/accesses v2 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org * Introduce a new PER_CPU macro called "EARLY_PER_CPU". This is used by some per_cpu variables that are initialized and accessed before there are per_cpu areas allocated. * Small change in kernel/sched.c to remove another 512 bytes from the stack. Based on: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git + x86/latest .../x86/linux-2.6-x86.git + sched-devel/latest .../mingo/linux-2.6-sched-devel.git Signed-off-by: Mike Travis --- v2: remerged PATCH 2/2 with latest x86.git/latest and sched-devel/latest, rebuilt and retested 4k-akpm2, 4k-defconfig, nonuma, & nosmp configs. --
