our gcc46.spec had in the armv5 section - --with-float=softfp
which I changed to =soft for a local build (OBS does not let me branch a broken package). And it made gcc work finally for armv5 - yay! ...
We can do so, that would mean that we don't use hard floating point instructions inside the soft fp ABI anymore. It sounds sane to me, however, I do not know if we have limited us here on puropose. Some other compilation errors may come back, because the soft FP support may not be good enough. Question is how many armv5 with and without fpu unit are out there. Does it make sense to limit us to the ones with hard fpu ? Or would an armv5 port make no sense at all then ? bye adrian -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
