Yep, I think that is the case too - perhaps the comment is dated when we still had magic constants in code :-) If not I need to fix it anyways so feel free to change it. -Vineet -- 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/

Question on ARC's thread_info
Vineet, I'm working on a patch series which touches sturct thread_info. ARC's thread_info has the following comment: * - if the contents of this structure are changed, the assembly constants * must also be changed Is this still true? Unless I'm reading the code wrong that case should be handled automatically by the asm-offsets mechanism. So no manual fixup of magic constants should be needed.
