Date: Thu, 13 Dec 2007 09:00:49 +0000 From: "Jan Beulich" <jbeulich@...ell.com> To: <tglx@...utronix.de>, <mingo@...hat.com>, <hpa@...or.com> Cc: <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, "Jeremy Fitzhardinge" <jeremy@...source.com> Subject: [PATCH] i386: XEN config option should not depend on X86_TSC/X86_CMPXCHG The way X86_TSC works and the fact that Xen itself won't work on systems without TSC (really any systems pre-dating i686) makes it unnecessary for XEN to depend on it. Similarly, X86_CMPXCHG isn't needed here either as Xen for the above reason guarantees its availability. This allows the option to be available when selecting M386, M486, or M586.
