Signed-off-by: Rog?rio Brito --- I have been using kernels optimized for size on my Kurobox (standard) for many different releases and I have experienced no problem with this option enabled. Thus, this patch. --- linux/arch/powerpc/configs/linkstation_defconfig.old 2008-10-13 00:33:00.000000000 -0300 +++ linux/arch/powerpc/configs/linkstation_defconfig 2008-10-13 00:38:58.000000000 -0300 @@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y # CONFIG_PID_NS is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="" -# CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is not set +CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y CONFIG_SYSCTL=y # CONFIG_EMBEDDED is not set CONFIG_SYSCTL_SYSCALL=y -- Rog?rio Brito : rbrito@{mackenzie,ime.usp}.br : GPG key 1024D/7C2CAEB8 http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito : http://meusite.mackenzie.com.br/rbrito Projects: algorithms.berlios.de : lame.sf.net : vrms.alioth.debian.org -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
