[Lu, Yinghai]

Don't worry, Please stay with the old code.

 

After LNXI put back apic id lifting back, I will enable the CAR shortly
in the public tree.

Hey Jason,

Would you mind just chucking up an exec summary of all the changes?..
I'm trying to adapt our port to the new code and am trying to figure out
whats going on ;)

Mainly:
set_apicid_cpuid_low() = gone
start_other_cores() = gone
__cpu_reset = gone
get_apicid_base() = gone

Actually, the __cpu_reset: thing looks broken on CAR systems... looking
at the tyan s4882 board, the Config.lb only brings in
arch/i386/lib/cpu_reset.inc if we're NOT CAR....

We're basicaly doing everything as CAR.

Are there more changes comming? or should we just start hacking to pick
up the pieces?


thanks man...

;)
