Should I have applied this one on top of the other?
I ran a validation with it alone, and
arm-none-eabi with default mode, cpu, and fpu does not build:
In file included from
/tmp/9260164_29.tmpdir/aci-gcc-fsf/sources/gcc-fsf/gccsrc/libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/eh_throw.cc:27:0:
/tmp/9260164_29.tmpdir/aci-gcc-fsf/sources/gcc-fsf/gccsrc/libstdc++-v3/libsupc++/exception_ptr.h:43:4:
error: #error This platform does
not support exception propagation.
# error This platform does not support exception propagation.
^~~~~
make[4]: *** [eh_throw.lo] Error 1
In addition, on arm-none-eabi --with-mode=thumb --with-cpu=cortex-a9,
I've noticed a regression in c++
- PASS now FAIL [PASS => FAIL]:
g++.dg/opt/pr36449.C -std=gnu++11 execution test
g++.dg/opt/pr36449.C -std=gnu++14 execution test
g++.dg/opt/pr36449.C -std=gnu++98 execution test
My logs show:
qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped
The validation of the other patch is still running: I had to re-run it
because the
patch didn't apply because of the ChangeLog entry.
