I'm not sure I like this. It introduces another cpu feature flag, that we'll soon run out of if it's used to signify version info per implementation like this. 1) The SET_IVOR could be done from the cpu_setups for 440A instead (i.e. introduce one). 2) Please just move the machine check handlers out to individual ones instead of using the generic one. That way you don't need runtime checks between the two (they don't seem to share much of it as-is anyway). With the above two changes, you shouldn't need the feature bit any more. -Olof _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
