1 Linux kernel release 2.4.xx for the IA-64 Platform 2 3 These are the release notes for Linux version 2.4 for IA-64 4 platform. This document provides information specific to IA-64 5 ONLY, to get additional information about the Linux kernel also 6 read the original Linux README provided with the kernel. 7 8 INSTALLING the kernel: 9 10 - IA-64 kernel installation is the same as the other platforms, see 11 original README for details. 12 13 14 SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS 15 16 Compiling and running this kernel requires an IA-64 compliant GCC 17 compiler. And various software packages also compiled with an 18 IA-64 compliant GCC compiler. 19 20 21 CONFIGURING the kernel: 22 23 Configuration is the same, see original README for details. 24 25 26 COMPILING the kernel: 27 28 - Compiling this kernel doesn't differ from other platform so read 29 the original README for details BUT make sure you have an IA-64 30 compliant GCC compiler. 31 32 IA-64 SPECIFICS 33 34 - General issues: 35 36 o Hardly any performance tuning has been done. Obvious targets 37 include the library routines (IP checksum, etc.). Less 38 obvious targets include making sure we don't flush the TLB 39 needlessly, etc. 40 41 o SMP locks cleanup/optimization 42 43 o IA32 support. Currently experimental. It mostly works.
