Subject: [PATCH 21/24] eglibc: Clear cache lines on ppc8xx

2007-06-13  Nathan Sidwell  <nathan@codesourcery.com>
            Mark Shinwell  <shinwell@codesourcery.com>

        * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/libc-start.c
        (__libc_start_main): Detect 8xx parts and clear
        __cache_line_size if detected.
        * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/dl-sysdep.c
        (DL_PLATFORM_AUXV): Likewise.

Upstream-Status: Pending
