hmmmm ... actually, there is ... sort of: $ find include -name compiler.h include/asm-alpha/compiler.h include/asm-mips/compiler.h include/linux/compiler.h $ grep -r "asm/compiler.h" * arch/mips/kernel/cpu-bugs64.c:#include <asm/compiler.h> arch/mips/kernel/time.c:#include <asm/compiler.h> arch/mips/au1000/common/time.c:#include <asm/compiler.h> arch/alpha/kernel/sys_sio.c:#include <asm/compiler.h> include/asm-alpha/mmu_context.h:#include <asm/compiler.h> include/asm-alpha/core_marvel.h:#include <asm/compiler.h> include/asm-alpha/core_t2.h:#include <asm/compiler.h> ... lots more alpha stuff ... so there does appear to be some precedent for an asm/compiler.h. for better or worse. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
