Status
- Common base for the MeeGo Toolchain in Release 1.2 is gcc-4.5.1
ARM:
- Move to hardfp for 1.2, but building hard+soft for grace time.
- Nokia wants hardfp support to ARM toolchain (option -mfloat-abi=hardfp) -> Binary break compared to Release 1.1
- Effects also to RPM package manager (must be capable to detect hardfp architecture)
- Change Proposal is needed to get approval from MeeGo TSG. Jarmo will prepare.
- Communication material needed
- Linaro ARM backports to gcc-4.5.1
- Do we need backport also to binutils?
x86:
- Austin tested 4.5.1 and found no issues so far for x86 (main repo). More tests on applications as Browser needed -> rebenchmark. Which benchmarks to use ?
- Bootsrap is needed for gcc-4.5.1
- New toolchain is needed to OBS devel:base and to trunk:testing at 12/2010
