[PATCH v2 1/3] [POWERPC] Move to runtime allocated exception stacks

Kumar Gala galak at kernel.crashing.org
Thu May 1 16:29:27 EST 2008


For the additonal exception levels (critical, debug, machine check) on
40x/book-e we were using "static" allocations of the stack in the
associated head.S.

Move to a runtime allocation to make the code a bit easier to read as
we mimic how we handle IRQ stacks.  Its also a bit easier to setup the
stack with a "dummy" thread_info in C code.

Signed-off-by: Kumar Gala <galak at kernel.crashing.org>

Renamed STACK_TOP to STACK_BASE to make this a bit more clear.
