Dear bareboxers, I ask for help with a problem I am facing. If the buildsystem compiles gcc with multilib support, gcc can support the float abi callconvention to be generated dynamically, as yocto starting with v1.7 does. So we don't have the usual default "--with-float=hard", but gcc sets the mfloat-abi at runtime for every package. This seems to work well in general, e.g. modern autotools and the Kconfig infrastructure for kernel and barebox. However this fails for the target tools in the barebox script folder. They need to have the --with-float=hard set, or they will try to compile as softfloat. I think the general solution would be to give the user the possibility to redefine the CC for the userspace tools, as this is very specific to the environment where the barebox gets compiled. But maybe someone with a deeper knowledge of the Makefile infrastructure can recommend a better long term solution.
