It seems reasonable to support any gcc 4.x configuration. > If ELDK4.2 must be supported, then I would suggest creating a > configuration option to allow the use of armv7-a ISA, then the > arch/arm/cpu/armv7/highbank/config.mk file would select armv7-a ISA I don't tink I want to accept a board specific config.mk for such apurpose. We want to get rid of thse config.mk files. Either ARMv7 based boards all need this option, or they all don;t need it. Thisis NOT a board specific feature. > If ELDK4.2 support is dropped (at least partially) then no change would > be needed. > > Wolfgang:, I think that toolchain support for ARM is more your choice > than mine. See above - I see no reason why we should abandon ELDK 4.2 when adding a new board - when all other boards with similar CPUs work just fine.
