I am trying to get the -msoft-float option to work with my rtems-aware
cross-compiler. ( Linux-586 -> i386-coff )
Has anyone out there done this?
I really don't know where to begin. Do I create libgcc1.a with the
i386-coff compiler and use it? I've done that, and added the
-msoft-float switch to CFLAGS but disassembled listings show that the
system continues to emit hard floating point instructions. Naturally,
the program halts on execution of such instructions.
My configuration is :
gcc-2.7.2 with cross-gcc patches
newlib-1.7.0-posix ( rtems aware )
binutils-2.6.0
