Subject: [RFC 3/3] zImage: Exception vector support
Date: Sat, 17 Feb 2007 17:17:08 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45D7A914.4040000@am.sony.com> (raw)
Add SMP exception vector support to the powerpc zImage bootwrapper. For
platforms which have entry points in the vector table. This implements
SMP entry via the system reset vector.
Signed-off-by: Geoff Levand <geoffrey.levand@am.sony.com>
