VFP unit failed

[raju goruganti]

Hi all,

On my  SOC(which uses cortex-a8 architecture) VFP coprocessor is not
working properly, we are using codesourcery's(2010 lite
version.gcc-4.4.1) tool chain,
Now my question is While compiling any application ,what flags we
should  avoid   so that any hard float instructions are not included?

When these instructions are used?

"gcc/config/arm/libunwind.S"

"gcc/config/arm/pr-support.c"

"gcc/config/arm/unwind-arm.c"
