[PATCH] [arch/i386/boot]: for better readability in clearing BSS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



there are three different linker scripts with different usages,

	arch/i386/boot/setup.ld
	arch/i386/boot/compressed/vmlinux.lds
	arch/i386/kernel/vmlinux.lds

accompanlying with three different sections of clearing BSS,

	arch/i386/boot/header.S
	arch/i386/boot/compressed/head.S
	arch/i386/kernel/head.S

but their label names in .bss section are different,
when reading these files, they are apt to confuse,

this patch kept them in the same style of clearing.
