What is the proper value for L1_CACHE_SHIFT on sparc64? The cache itself is two chunks of 16 bytes each, makes up 32 bytes. On i386, L1_CACHE_BYTES == (1 << L1_CACHE_SHIFT), so if this applies here, too, we have a L1_CACHE_SHIFT of... 5?
Right. But who needs L1_CACHE_SHIFT? Nothing generic should reference it. Did something get added to 2.5.x that needs it now?
I wouldn't have noticed yet as I've been away for nearly half a month on vaction until a day or two ago. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
