Cover letter [RFC PATCH 0/3] ARM: uncompress.h multi-platform enablement
Quoted 3 lines · Tim Bird
Will those of us not interested in a single kernel binary that works everywhere be able to configure an ARM kernel image without a lot of bloat?
I'm not aware of increase in code size from the single kernel image yet. If you find something, let us know.
For the platforms that are being converted to multiplatform in 3.7, the kernel binary should be essentially the same between building a single-platform kernel before the patches, and a multiplatform kernel with only one platform enabled after the patches.
We had to add a few indirect function pointers, e.g. for SMP startup, but that overhead is measured in bytes, not kilobytes.
