Actually I used another approach rather than is_kernel(), see [1] for
v2 patchset of ppc64 fixing.
The reason is keeping a ppc64 specific variable in the multi-cpu arch
used function is_kernel(), it is hard to make the code as clean.
Hi Aditya,
There is one more question about the abi_v1/2. Say if I have a abi_v2
machine, but I want to run a abi_v1 elf executable file. I don't know
1) is it possible to run v1 elf on a v2 kernel machine; 2) if it can,
which STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD will the kernel use, 48 or 112? If
STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD will vary depending on abi_v1/2 of elf executable
file, then our approach needs to change.
Currently I have failed to build a abi_v1 elf executable file on the
abi_v2 machine, which reports:
$ gcc test.c -mabi=elfv1
fatal error: gnu/stubs-64-v1.h: No such file or directory
But I don't know where to install the missing header or rpms, or if it
is doable.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Tao Liu
