[PATCH] alpha: use L1_CACHE_BYTES for cacheline size in the linker script

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently the linker script uses 64 for cacheline size which isn't
optimal for all cases.  Include asm/cache.h and use L1_CACHE_BYTES
instead as suggested by Sam Ravnborg.
