To be honest that sounds more like a bug in your architecture. I don't think it's the right solution to make a new rule "you shall not do 64bit switch()", because that's a reasonable thing to do and will be hard to enforce over millions of lines of random Linux code. There was a explicit decision to not support implicit 64bit divides on 32bit because they're very costly, but that doesn't really apply to 64bit switch(). At least they shouldn't be very costly in theory. It seems indeed weird to call a function to compare a 64bit value. I bet the call sequence is larger than just doing two cmps. Perhaps your gcc should be fixed? Or alternatively at least that function be added to the kernel runtime library. -Andi ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- Speaking for myself only. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
