* Scheduler name for OBS is "armv7hl" is currently common to all architectures in hardfp. Let's try to manage with this only one. Another scheduler can be established if needed.

* What is the status of glibc-2.12 building failure? AP for Jan-Simon to check. It may be related to this one http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~linaro-toolchain-dev/gcc-linaro/4.5/revision/99434

  • Different architecture options regarding to Thumb2

Different architecture options regarding to Thumb2

  • Lots of discussion around Thumb2 support in MeeGo 1.2
  • Currently there are four (4) different architectures in ARM hardfp for MeeGo 1.2 (armv7hl, armv7thl, armv7nhl, arnv7tnhl)
  • N900 is the reference device for MeeGo 1.2 handset but there is a silicon bug in Cortex-A8 processor that prevents using of Thumb2 instruction set (see http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/ARM_ERRATA_430973.html)
  • Decisions: 
  * Compatibility baseline is armv7hl (ARM instruction set with VFPv3-D16)
  * Optimized high performance is armv7tnhl (Thumb2 instruction set with NEON)
  * Optimized for N900 reference device is armv7nhl (ARM instruction set with NEON)
  • Optimized high performance level means that it is allowed to Thumb2 instruction set and NEON instructions
