Hi,
i am looking for a way to support fixedpoint operations in gcc in order
to produce efficient code for a dsp core.
The only obvious solution i am aware of would be to add support for a
language extension like DSP-C (www.dsp-c.org) or Embedded-C
(www.embedded-c.org) to the compiler.
Is anybody doing any work on supporting this in gcc?
There is of course a complete implementation in the Ada front end
since this is a standard feature of Ada. It would be just fine to
move this into the back end, but non-trivial!
