From ae1ee11be77f51cedb6c569887dddc70c163ab6d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Wed, 2 May 2007 19:27:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386: Use per-cpu variables for GDT, PDA Allocating PDA and GDT at boot is a pain. Using simple per-cpu variables adds happiness (although we need the GDT page-aligned for Xen, which we do in a followup patch).
