From 8c9843e57a7d9d7a090d6467a0f1f3afb8031527 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 16:56:15 +1000 Subject: [POWERPC] Add thread_info_cache_init() weak hook Some architectures need to maintain a kmem cache for thread info structures. The next commit adds that to powerpc to fix an alignment problem. There is no good arch callback to use to initialize that cache that I can find, so this adds a new one in the form of a weak function whose default is empty.
