This requires a method to find the task struct of the task currently running on the CPU, which is provided in this case by the user space TLS (Thread Local Storage) register. This implies that the feature is only supported on CPUs that implement this register, i.e., ARM v6k or later. Kindly tested by Amit and reviewed by Linus. The first patch is against the GCC plugins subsystem, but was reviewed by the maintainer and can be taken through the ARM tree. ----------------------------------------------------------------Ping?
I haven't forgotten about it, I just haven't really opened my tree for new material yet... which I need to do this week, if I have time after catching up. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last! _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
