Your choice though the file looks to me to be linux specific as it uses #include <linux/stddef.h> Also, two functions, __TBIDataCacheFlush and __TBICodeCacheFlush, have an unnecessary indentation level after a test and return. void __TBICodeCacheFlush( const void *pStart, int Bytes ) { volatile int *pCtrl = (volatile int *) SYSC_CACHE_MMU_CONFIG; if ( !__TBICacheDoneInit ) __TBICacheInit(); if ( (pCtrl[0] & SYSC_CMMUCFG_IC_ON_BIT) == 0 ) { /* No need to flush the code cache it's not actually enabled */ return; } { /* Use a sequence of writes to flush the cache region requested */ int Loops, Step; etc. I believe the automatics in the second blocks should be moved to the start of the function and the unnecessary braces and extra indentation removed. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
