Hello, This test verifies, by using a weak reference to _Unwind_RaiseException, that performing division by zero does not cause that symbol to get indirectly pulled into our closure.
The testing methodology unfortunately does not work on VxWorks targets when building in kernel mode. This is inherent to how kernel mode on VxWorks works: The link is only partial and the remaining symbols which have not been resolved already get automatically resolved by the VxWorks loader at the moment the module is loaded onto the target, prior to execution. The resolution includes weak symbols too, which defeats the purpose of this test. gcc/testsuite/ * gcc.target/arm/div64-unwinding.c: Skip on vxworks_kernel targets. Tested by running the test on ARM VxWorks 7 SR0640, both in kernel mode as well as RTP mode (verifying it only gets disabled when in kernel mode). Also run on ARM ELF to verify that this still runs on non-VxWorks targets. OK to push to master?
