It will work with both new and old assemblers. The\nassembler starting from 2.16.90.0.1 will also support\n\n        movw (%eax),%ds\n        movw %ds,(%eax)\n\nwithout the 0x66 prefix. I am enclosing patches for 2.4 and 2.6 kernels\nhere. The resulting kernel binaries should be unchanged as before, with\nold and new assemblers, if gcc never generates memory access for\n\n               unsigned gsindex;\n               asm volatile(\"movl %%gs,%0\" : \"\u003dg\" (gsindex));\n\nIf gcc does generate memory access for the code above, the upper bits\nin gsindex are undefined and the new assembler doesn\u0027t allow it.\n\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
