Hi,
It looks like -mcpu=common (on the powerpc architecture) was removed. My group is struggling to find a way to compile generic binaries for PowerPC. We have been getting an LWSYNC instruction included in the binaries, and some of our processors are getting a trap when this instructions is executed. The platforms we are using are all Freescale, they are p2020, t1042, and 8540.
Freescale support informed us that we should use -mcpu=common , which is gone, we tried a number of other -mcpu setting including -mcpu=powerpc, but none of them allow us to have generic binaries for all the platforms.
I suppose this is either a bug report that we're getting lwsync when we shouldn't be getting it, or just a question of what the typical tune is to make generic binaries ?
Thanks for any help, Daniel
