Jeremy, another thing about i386-pda: why did you pick the %gs selector to store the PDA in? %fs would be a better choice because %gs is used by glibc so the saving/restoring of %fs would likely be near zero-cycles cost. (instead of the current 9 cycles for saving/restoring %gs) Ingo - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
