Making the ia64 code more like the x86 code might help avoid such problems in the future (lots more people look at x86 than ia64 - if ours is the same, or very similar, then it is likely that changes made to x86 will be correct for ia64 too). Only you can decide how much this is worth to you and your company - perhaps there will be no more changes that break ia64 even with the code differences. Or perhaps it will be easier for you to just fix things as they break than to undertake a restructure of the code. -Tony -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
