All,The attached patch updates gcc-4.7/changes.html to document the addition of support in the ARM backend for Cortex-A7 via the -mcpu=cortex-a7 command line option.
The wording is based upon that used for Cortex-M4 in gcc-4.6/changes.html. Can someone please review, and if appropriate apply the patch? Thanks, Matt ChangeLog: 2011-11-21 Matthew Gretton-Dann <matthew.gretton-d...@arm.com> * htdocs/gcc-4.7/changes.html: Document -mcpu=cortex-a7. -- Matthew Gretton-Dann Principal Engineer, PD Software - Tools, ARM Ltd
