Hi, here's the restated delta from v3.8 -> v3.9-rc1, after some script bug fixes.

And here's the correct results. vmlinux object size (delta in bytes from test_v3.8 (19f949f52599ba7c3f67a5897ac6be14bfcb1200)): text data bss total kernel -557629 +23472 -9252 -543409 n800_multi_omap2xxx -557204 +26680 -9280 -539804 n800_only_a +49056 +2992 +424 +52472 omap1_defconfig_1510innovator_only +195310 +37968 +1364 +234642 omap2plus_defconfig +185362 +37128 +1364 +223854 omap2plus_defconfig_cpupm +192610 +36304 +1364 +230278 omap2plus_defconfig_no_pm +186719 +31416 +1300 +219435 omap2plus_defconfig_omap2_4_only +181125 +41432 +1300 +223857 omap2plus_defconfig_omap3_4_only +10460 +10272 +1184 +21916 rmk_omap3430_ldp_allnoconfig +40004 +27640 +788 +68432 rmk_omap3430_ldp_oldconfig +10348 +10272 +1296 +21916 rmk_omap4430_sdp_allnoconfig +40867 +14672 +972 +56511 rmk_omap4430_sdp_oldconfig The massive decrease in N800 kernel size is a result of an all-out attempt to keep the kernel booting on N800, which has a 2MB kernel size limitation in the bootloader. Same crazy bloat in the OMAP2+ kernels, and it's probably due to the CONFIG_ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM changes. Hey, at least we don't have to worry about supporting embedded use-cases any more on ARM ;-) - Paul -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
