That is already done today. But the existing Makefile mechanisms work fine for that. Making sense: - There is actually a lot of shared code - The supported hardware is the same (remember x86-64 is only for modern x86 hardware, while i386 has a much longer legacy) - No ifdefs -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||
