--- Comment #1 from Segher Boessenkool <segher at gcc dot gnu.org> --- (In reply to Michael Meissner from comment #0) > I am tuning up the final patches for providing support to enable the PowerPC > server compilers to change the default long double from using the IBM > 128-bit double double format to IEEE 128-bit. You mean "change the default for powerpc64le-*" I hope? Most other configurations we cannot change, certainly not before we allow IEEE QP float everywhere. > When the default long double is IEEE 128-bit, the powerpc backend needs to > create a new type (__ibm128) to allow access to the old IBM 128-bit format. > It looks like the gcc/cp/module.cc code does not have a method of dealing > with target specific floating point types. If that is true, this should be a P1. Please figure out if it is true!
