Subject: [PATCH] i386: remove struct thread_struct::fs
Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2009 23:38:06 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090324203805.GA24382@x200.localdomain> (raw)
After commit 464d1a78fbf8cf6c7fd970e7b3e2db50a320ce28 aka
"[PATCH] i386: Convert i386 PDA code to use %fs"
%fs saved during context switch moved from thread_struct to pt_regs.
Ifdef it on i386.
I don't understand why .fs (OK, .gs first) initializer was added, kernel
clearly stopped touching it after the patch.
