Sorry for the long delay, been very busy since I last posted the 386
kernel patches back in July.
Now that I have more free time I remade the patches in a cleaner manner,
broken down into
smaller patches, with fewer #ifdefs all over the place. most #ifdefs are
in the include/asm-i386 headers
now.
linux-2.6.22.7-embedded-disable-rdtsc.patch:
* Allows you to remove Pentium TSC register-based timing, which
would never be used on
a kernel targeting 386 and 486 boxes exclusively. Apparently
there is already a
CONFIG_X86_TSC out there, this patch makes it work as a means to
disable TSC support
entirely. Depends on CONFIG_EMBEDDED.
linux-2.6.22.7-embedded-dmi-disable-option.patch:
* Allows you to remove DMI (Desktop Management Interface) parsing.
Older computers do
not have DMI structures in the BIOS, on these computers the DMI
code is a waste of space.
In my tests with applying this patch and disabling DMI removes
6KB from
arch/i386/boot/bzImage after compile. Apparently there is already
a CONFIG_DMI out there,
and #ifdef's in some parts to check this, so all this patch does
is make CONFIG_DMI visible
from "make menuconfig" while patching up other parts (like ACPI)
that simply assume DMI
functions are there. Depends on CONFIG_EMBEDDED.
