      i386: Move all simple string operations out of line · b520b85a
      Andi Kleen authored
      The compiler generally generates reasonable inline code for the simple
      cases and for the rest it's better for code size for them to be out of line.
      Also there they can be potentially optimized more in the future.
      
      In fact they probably should be in a .S file because they're all pure
      assembly, but that's for another day.
      
      Also some code style cleanup on them while I was on it (this seems
      to be the last untouched really early Linux code)
      
      This saves ~12k text for a defconfig kernel with gcc 4.1.

      Add "memory" clobbers to the x86 inline asm of strncmp and friends · 793ae774
      Linus Torvalds authored
      They don't actually clobber memory, but gcc doesn't even know they
      _read_ memory, so can apparently re-order memory accesses around them.
      
      Which obviously does the wrong thing if the memory access happens to
      change the memory that the compare function is accessing..
      
      Verified to fix a strange boot problem by Jens Axboe.

      Linux-2.6.12-rc2 · 1da177e4
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
