Annotation of OpenXM_contrib/gmp/mpn/README, Revision 1.1

1.1     ! maekawa     1: This directory contains all code for the mpn layer of GMP.
        !             2:
        !             3: Most subdirectories contain machine-dependent code, written in assembly or
        !             4: C.  The `generic' subdirectory contains default code, used when there is no
        !             5: machine-dependent replacement for a particular machine.
        !             6:
        !             7: There is one subdirectory for each architecture.  Note that e.g., 32-bit
        !             8: sparc and 64-bit sparc cannot share any code, and are therefore considered
        !             9: completely different architecture.
        !            10:
        !            11: A particular machine will only use code from one such subdirectory, and the
        !            12: `generic' subdirectory.  The architecture-specific subdirectory contains a
        !            13: hierachy of directories for various architecture variants and
        !            14: implementations; the top-most level contains code that runs correctly on all
        !            15: variants.
