Dear list,
as you might remember I built this week a cross-compiler for MIPS. This
compiler (4.3.2) works great and uses the soft-float feature.
Now I try to rebuild my historic compiler for SimpleScalar/PISA. It is
version 2.7.2 and has been ported by somebody I do not know. PISA is
quite similar to MIPS, so I hoped to be able to get soft-float running...
But although I configured it to use soft-float (... -nfp AND/OR
--without-fp) nothing changed: I can compile my float-code but the
necessary functions cannot be found:
/---------------------------------------
./sslittle-na-sstrix-gcc hello.c -msoft-float
/tmp/cceoxQFe1.o: In function `main':
hello.c:1: undefined reference to `__extendsfdf2'
hello.c:1: undefined reference to `__adddf3'
hello.c:1: undefined reference to `__truncdfsf2'
hello.c:1: undefined reference to `__mulsf3'
hello.c:1: undefined reference to `__fixsfsi'
\---------------------------------------
Now I wonder if there soft-float has already been completely supported
or if it is necessary to link the program with a third party library...
Do you know which files should have been compiled for soft-float and how
I can manually "add them to the linker"? Is there a fitting third-party
library?
I wish you a great weekend and want to thank you in advance
Ralf
PS: Glibc 1.0.9 is available and working. :)
