  • 7974891db   x86: Always use irq stacks ... Browse Code »

    IRQ stacks provide much better safety against unexpected stack use from
    interrupts, at the minimal downside of slightly higher memory usage.
    Enable irq stacks also for the default 8k stack on 32-bit kernels to
    minimize the problem of stack overflows through interrupt activity.

    This is what the 64-bit kernel and various other architectures already do.

  • 23deb0682   x86: move x86-specific documentation into Documentation/x86 ... Browse Code »

    The current organization of the x86 documentation makes it appear as
    if the "i386" documentation doesn't apply to x86-64, which is does.
    Thus, move that documentation into Documentation/x86, and move the
    x86-64-specific stuff into Documentation/x86/x86_64 with the eventual
    goal to move stuff that isn't actually 64-bit specific back into
    Documentation/x86.
