Neither I always know what I'm doing... Or don't always know everything.
Being provocative is a good way to trigger some own thinking anyhow...
Here the goal was to start thinking what on earth could be the default
CPU type
etc. for your chosen target.
Is there a specific non-default multilib version triggered with the
'-mcpu=603e' option? Or should the default code ('-mcpu=common') be
fully compatible with your
603e ? The GCC 3.4 manual tells about this default code :
This was bullshit, I cannot say why I thought the '-mcpu=common' always
being the default... The same chapter where
the clipped text was taken, clearly told that the target name and the
possibly used '-mcpu=something' option defines
the default code.... So a 'rs6000-aix5.1' target GCC generates totally
different code from a GCC made for the
'powerpc-linux-gnu' which is then totally different from code produced
for the 'powerpc-eabi', 'powerpc-eabispe',
'powerpc-eabialtivec' etc. targets.
For the 'powerpc-eabi' the default maybe will be defined with (in
'gcc/config/rs6000/eabi.h') the :
------------- clip -----------------------------
/* Add -meabi to target flags. */
#undef TARGET_DEFAULT
#define TARGET_DEFAULT (MASK_POWERPC | MASK_NEW_MNEMONICS | MASK_EABI)
/* Invoke an initializer function to set up the GOT. */
#define NAME__MAIN "__eabi"
#define INVOKE__main
#undef TARGET_VERSION
#define TARGET_VERSION fprintf (stderr, " (PowerPC Embedded)");
#undef TARGET_OS_CPP_BUILTINS
#define TARGET_OS_CPP_BUILTINS() \
do \
{ \
builtin_define_std ("PPC"); \
builtin_define ("__embedded__"); \
builtin_assert ("system=embedded"); \
builtin_assert ("cpu=powerpc"); \
builtin_assert ("machine=powerpc"); \
TARGET_OS_SYSV_CPP_BUILTINS (); \
} \
------------- clip -----------------------------
So the '-mcpu=powerpc' would be (one of the) default(s) with the
'powerpc-eabi' target name...
I would guess this target name being used and the '-mcpu=powerpc' code
not being suitable
if needing the '-mcpu=603e'....
