Dear Sascha,
in message 20090514134055.GA29278@pengutronix.de you wrote:
It is incorrect to state that "Linux uses offsets for registers". The Linux code for ARM may do this, and I consider this one of the major deficiencies of the ARM code in Linux. Other architectures (like PowerPC) deprecated this long ago.
Can you provide some pointers to a discussion? I sometimes google for this topic, but I never found something relevant.
Sorry, I don't have any specific links.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
