On PPC64, we have mftb(). On PPC32, we have mftbl() and an #define mftb() mftbl(). mftb() and mftbl() are equivalent, their purpose is to read the content of SPRN_TRBL, as returned by 'mftb' simplified instruction. binutils seems to define 'mftbl' instruction as an equivalent of 'mftb'. However in both 32 bits and 64 bits documentation, only 'mftb' is defined, and when performing a disassembly with objdump, the displayed instruction is 'mftb' No need to have two ways to do the same thing with different names, rename mftbl() to have only mftb().

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
