Next: [PATCH 1/5] Package Level Thermal Control and Power Limit Notification: feature enabling
From: Ulrich Drepper on 22 Jul 2010 12:20 Before this bad practice of using arrays of string pointers to constant strings further spreads let's fix it. With this change not only is the entire data associated with the arrays read-only, it also replaces a memory lookup with a trivial arithmetic operation. The result is a smaller and faster binary.
