PowerPC: Backport fix for libgcc long double support.
This patch takes the fix that was applied to the trunk on December 3rd, and it
applies it to the GCC 10 branch.
I have verified it by building compilers configured for both normal 128-bit IBM
long double and 64-bit long double with/without the patch. I did make check
and the results were the expected results comparing 128-bit long double to
64-bit long double.
With the patch installed, the test case provided will build and run cleanly
with compilers configured for either 128-bit IBM long double or 64-bit long
double without error.
Without the patch installed, the linker complains about mixing long double
types.
Here is the test case.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
int
main()
{
long double a = 2.0;
__int128 b = 8;
printf("sizeof(long double) = %ld\n", sizeof(long double));
printf("a * b = %Lf\n", a * (long double) b);
return 0;
}
Can I apply this patch to the gcc-10-branch and close out PR 97543?
