5 * For the benefit of those who are trying to port Linux to another
6 * architecture, here are some C-language equivalents. You should
7 * recode these in the native assembly language, if at all possible.
8 * To guarantee atomicity, these routines call cli() and sti() to
9 * disable interrupts while they operate. (You have to provide inline
10 * routines to cli() and sti().)
12 * Also note, these routines assume that you have 32 bit longs.
13 * You will have to change this if you are trying to port Linux to the
14 * Alpha architecture or to a Cray. :-)
16 * C language equivalents written by Theodore Ts'o, 9/26/92
