Hi Christophe,
Could you modify your new testcases, such that they call
check_effective_target_arm_arm_ok ?
Good idea - done.
I'm just realizing that we currently generate arm_arch_vX_ok
for X >=4 only. Maybe you should also add v3?
Possibly. I am not at all sure how important v3 support is any more
(or support for any ARM architecture prior to v4t). Do you know of
anyone who still needs it ?
I am not aware of any such user, but the ARM maintainers would know
better for sure.
FWIW, the original bug report came from the kernel team, when building
all the existing
configurations. So it seems the Linux kernel still wants to support v3.
Judging by the Linaro issue linked to the BZ:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/1307197
the armv3 build was part of testing with random build configurations,
so I don't think that's an indication that real kernels care about this.
