Message-ID: <47901FE9.9020403@gmail.com> Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 06:41:29 +0300 From: Dmitri Vorobiev <dmitri.vorobiev@...il.com> To: tglx@...utronix.de, mingo@...hat.com, hpa@...or.com CC: Linux-kernel <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: [PATCH] x86_32: remove the useless NR_syscalls macro This is against current x86.git. The size of the system call table for 32-bit x86 kernels is obtained by compile-time calculation of the sys_call_table array, not from the value, which the NR_syscalls macro expands to. This trivial patch removes the fossil macro. Manually tested by grepping the x86 files for the "NR_syscalls" string. No relevant use cases found. Build-tested using allyesconfig, allnoconfig and a couple of randconfig instances. All builds successfully finished. Runtime test performed using a stripped-down Debian-ish config. The system booted successfully.
