[PATCH][RFC] parisc: Halve size of syscall table in 64-bit kernel

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

 



This patch (on top of the syscall-table refracturing patch by Firoz
Khan) halves the requires size for the syscall table and thus saves
4*351*2 bytes = 2808 bytes (4 bytes per syscall * syscalls * 64&32-bit
entries).  Additional cost is one instruction more per syscall, which
I'm not sure is possible to avoid.

I'm still unsure if this patch is a good idea to apply.
