Summary: Several of the Altivec tests fail if run with a compiler built with --with-cpu=power7 Product: gcc Version: 4.6.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: target AssignedTo: meiss...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: meiss...@gcc.gnu.org Host: powerpc64-linux Target: powerpc64-linux Build: powerpc64-linux Some of the Altivec tests fail if the default cpu for the powerpc compiler is power7, because these tests are looking for specific code sequences and/or errors. The fix is to add -mno-vsx to the options.
