To give context, it was this patch you were asking about: 2018-06-20 Michael Meissner <meiss...@linux.ibm.com> * gcc.target/powerpc/float128-3.c: Change tests that test for errors in enabling/disable IEEE 128-bit floating point use the -mabi=ibmlongdouble to force long double to be IBM extended. * gcc.target/powerpc/float128-5.c: Likewise. * gcc.target/powerpc/float128-mix.c: Likewise. float128-3.c and float128-5.c both issues no error (because they both test if __FLOAT128__ defined even if you use the -mno-float128 option), instead of the two errors that the test checks for. float128-mix.c also issues no error because with -mabi=ieeelongdouble, it is legal to allow __float128 and long double to be combined. -- Michael Meissner, IBM IBM, M/S 2506R, 550 King Street, Littleton, MA 01460-6245, USA email: meiss...@linux.ibm.com, phone: +1 (978) 899-4797
