This in particular is just too ugly for words. Why can't you just have a
static const char *intel_nops[] = {
NULL,
INOP1, INOP2, INOP3, INOP4, INOP5, INOP6, INOP7, INOP8
};
static const char *k7_nops[] = {
NULL,
K7NOP1, K7NOP2, ...
}
....
/*
* This will be overridden at boot once we find out what kind of
* CPU we actually have
*/
static char **nops = intel_nops;
and then just use
.. nops[size] ..
when you want a nop of size "size".
