Message-ID: <20080427105100.GA14795@uranus.ravnborg.org> Date: Sun, 27 Apr 2008 12:51:00 +0200 From: Sam Ravnborg <sam@...nborg.org> To: linux arch <linux-arch@...r.kernel.org>, LKML <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org>, Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu>, David Miller <davem@...emloft.net>, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org> Subject: [PATCH] prepare kconfig inline optimization for all architectures Fix the OPTIMIZE inline functionality such that it can be used by all architectures. To use it the arch maintainers shall add a "select HAVE_OPTIMIZE_INLINING" in their arch specific Kconfig file. This patch enables OPTIMIZE_INLINING for x86, sparc and sparc64. If all archs by into the approach the requirment for the select can be dropped. The indirection with ARCH__SUPPORTS_OPTIMIZED_INLINING was killed as this is not needed when using select to decide what archs supports this. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@...nborg.org> Cc: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...e.hu> --- Largely untested. This patch was made as a consequence of the CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING thread on lkml.
