Okay, but apparently compilers such as gcc do not use compiler-rt at all, but expect the function to be available in libgcc instead. So since clang can compile the definition on arm now, shall we re-enable it for libgcc too? -Dimitry _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
