Right, so -mfloat-abi=softfp generates binaries which use compatible calling conventions but do require a VFP.
I don't think we want this; instead we should rather optimize libs and programs to select VFP at runtime if available or provide alternate packages for VFP versus non VFP systems. One obvious candidate is libc. I wonder whether it's possible and useful to build a libgcc which implements soft float computations with the FPU? That would seem like a good thing to do to optimize all soft float calls on systems which have a FPU. -- armel gcc default optimisations https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/303232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
