Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 11:40:39 -0500 From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@...ibm.com> To: linux kernel mailing list <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Reloc Kernel List <fastboot@...ts.osdl.org>, ebiederm@...ssion.com, akpm@...l.org, ak@...e.de, hpa@...or.com, magnus.damm@...il.com, lwang@...hat.com, dzickus@...hat.com Subject: [RFC] [PATCH 8/16] x86_64: Add EFER to the set registers saved by save_processor_state EFER varies like %cr4 depending on the cpu capabilities, and which cpu capabilities we want to make use of. So save/restore it make certain we have the same EFER value when we are done. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
