Woops. See also my unanswered question in "atomic64 on 32-bit vs 64-bit (was: Re: Add virtio gpu driver.)", which is still valid: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/28/18 Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert -- Geert Uytterhoeven -- There's lots of Linux beyond ia32 -- geert@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
