Hi, I am running a Linux 2.6.9 on a MPC8541 custom board.
I would like to run a user application which contains some SPE code extracted from a freescale library. I compiled the kernel with the CONFIG_SPE set to yes. The application also compiles and I can run it on the board. But it seems the SPE bit from the MSR register is not set when the process runs. I tried to use a call to the enable_kernel_spe function to force the bit, but it is always erased by the kernel (??) when scheduling task and never set again. Must I compile the application with some special flags to instruct the kernel I want to use SPE ? Thanks for any idea G?rard
