I don't think I understand your argument. Are you essentially saying we should consider eliminating the mach_vec stuff entirely? If so, will we essentially be saying that the distros need to build a seperate kernel for each of tiger, zx1, sn2, and uv?No ... exactly the opposite ... I'm wondering whether we should give up maintaining/building all the tiger_, zx1_ configs and only have the generic one ... since it appears that the number of end users of non-generic kernels can be counted on the toes of one foot.
Hi Tony, IMHO it would be fine to just run the generic builds and forget about the specialized ones. We can probably simplify the machvec infrastructure a bit by doing so, but I don't see how we're going to get rid of the bulk of it..... says the guy who is in the process of adding more entries :-) Cheers, Jes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
