From 0da5db313317e3195482d3e660a1074857374a89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Tue, 26 Sep 2006 10:52:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] i386: Abstract sensitive instructions Abstract sensitive instructions in assembler code, replacing them with macros (which currently are #defined to the native versions). We use long names: assembler is case-insensitive, so if something goes wrong and macros do not expand, it would assemble anyway. Resulting object files are exactly the same as before.
