Whatever, this is pure bikeshedding what we're doing right now. All the errors are reported through the CPU's MCA banks and the argument whether an error class which is maybe not really tied to the CPU, should dictate which path to put the files in, does not make any sense to me. The only argument which makes sense IMO is whether the path should be short. :-) And both arch/x86/cpu/mce/ arch/x86/mce/ are short enough to me. Now, the real question is, how do we want to place the rest of the files/folders so that we can get rid of deeper directory structures. If we say, we don't want to have .../cpu/... and put everything in arch/x86/ then this answers the above question too. IMO, of course. -- Regards/Gruss, Boris.
