I want to know the exact offsets for cache layout reasons, at the very least. And there are other more important reasons to check this stuff out by hand and don't let it compile automatically. Anything that changes the layout and size of members in struct thread_info should be scrutinized carefully by every arch maintainer. There are other implications for these kinds of changes, for example this decreases the amount of space we have to save our recursive kernel/user FPU state on sparc64. I don't want any of this to be automated at all. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
