kernel-parameters.txt
I just noticed that "kstack=" is not documented in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt.
It would be a Good Thing is someone would check for kernel parameters/options that are missing from kernel-parameters.txt and add them...
Thanks,

I'll try to sort that out. Thanks, Randy.

Drat. I just noticed that there is a file for x64-64 that contains boot options:Documentation/x86_64/boot-options.txt
which is too bad IMO, that should be merged into kernel-parameters.txt, with indications that they are X86-64 only.

I'll have a look at merging the two files first, then, alright?
A quick grep of the arch trees in 2.6.11 says there are
1 arch/alpha 1 arch/ppc 11 arch/arm 9 arch/ppc64 5 arch/arm26 5 arch/s390 21 arch/i386 4 arch/sh 12 arch/ia64 2 arch/sh64 1 arch/m32r 1 arch/sparc 3 arch/mips 8 arch/um
2 arch/parisc 22 arch/x86_64
so many occurences of "__setup(".
But in the kernel-parameters.txt file, I only see only four params with a PPC* arch flag where I would expect to find ten.
There seem to be a lot missing. :)
Should I hunt the missing params down in their arch trees and add them in?

Sounds good/right to me, but please check with Andi Kleen ([email protected]) to see if he will merge it, so that you don't waste your time.

Yes, that's would I would prefer to see, but again, I don't want you wasting time on it if it won't be merged.
