[Fwd: FW: linux-next: manual merge of the crypto tree]

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

 



A standalone patch to add sse42 flags.
(But, Ingo, I thought this would still make conflicts when Stephen want to merge into crypto tree, right?)

So can we add sse4.1 into this patch also as: 
#define X86_FEATURE_XMM4_1	(4*32+19)

new x86 feature bits should definitely show up in the x86 tree too. 
Could you please send a standalone patch that only touches the .h file, 
which could be applied to v2.6.27 as well? Thanks,
