[uml-devel] UML on PPC

[Chris E. <cem...@ch...>]

Hi Jeff etc,

I still haven't got UML working on PPC, and still intend to and
occasionally have a poke at it.  (How's the IA64 port, incidentally?)
The work on a Win32 port has renewed my enthusiasm, or at least
determination.  :-)

Attached is a smallish patch with a couple extra files in sys[dep]-ppc
and a couple of tweaks for PPC, and a patch with a couple of changes
in include/asm-um.  They seem safe!  I hope to trickle in small
patches every now and then whenever I get a bit of time, if that's
ok.  I think that'll be more successful than doing everything in one
go, as it means I can keep up with the current state-of-the-art.

There's a line reading "define_bool CONFIG_X86 y" in arch/um/config.in
- am I right in thinking that that (and the line after it regarding
CONFIG_ISA) is something which ought to depend on the subarch?

Cheers,

Chris
