OK, that's fine, but the next step is to have "make ARCH=x86" compile, with a config option as to whether to build 32 or 64 bit. This will involve a fair amount of Makefile hair, but if you can get Andi to buy into that then the rest is a simple matter of code churn. For most kernel hackers, this would be the flag day. Moving the rest of the files across to xxx_32.c, xxx_64.h etc is going to involve a great deal of untangling and code cleanup. It's also going to completely screw a whole heap of my cleanup patches. Oh well. (Still hoping for an executive summary from the PPC folks). Cheers!
