I'm glad you find the kernel so perfect that your best use of time is to tweak the code added in a non-critical path (performance-wise) with a new way of checking for hardware features (no other code in the kernel checks ppc_md function pointers for that purpose). Pseries can only have mpic or xics, so it's not like it matters if we check for mpic or !xics, either. But hey, any color bike shed will do, and I don't care which one Paul chooses to merge. I will not waste more time debating this simple patch though. :) -Olof _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
