Only, it will emit code that is incompatible with it. However, this code is invoked at runtime only if a NEON unit has been detected, so it will just be ignored on ARMv7-M -- Ard. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-crypto" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
