Víctor Enríquez 584b3c47ea arch-armv6: add tunes without vfp enabled
This work was made by Victor Enriquez and then modified by Denis Carikli
who was helped by Mark Hatle comments. And in the end modified by Martin
Jansa to support different ARMPKGARCH and removed explicit -novfp suffix.

The changes are for adding support to armv6-novfp, for building binaries
for armv6 machines without vfp, for example the htc dream.

  • Initial Revision

The ARM architecture definitions are split among a number of files. The primary definitions for the variables are handled by the core arch-arm.inc file.

TUNE_ARCH is set to either "arm" or "armeb" depending on the value of the existence of the "bigendian" feature in a given tune.

A small set of ARM specific variables have been defined to allow TUNE_PKGARCH to be automatically defined. Optimized tunings must NOT change the definiton of TUNE_PKGARCH. TUNE_PKGACH_tune- will be ignored. The format of the package arch is enforced by the TUNE_PKGARCH default. The format must be of the form: [t][e][hf][b][-vfp][-neon]

TUNE_PKGARCH is defined as: ${ARMPKGARCH}${ARMPKGSFX_THUMB}${ARMPKGSFX_DSP}${ARMPKGSFX_EABI}${ARMPKGSFX_ENDIAN}${ARMPKGSFX_FPU}

ARMPKGARCH - This is the core package arch component specified by each tuning. This is the primary identifier of a tuning. Usual values are: arm, armv4, armv5, armv6, armv7a, etc.

ARMPKGSFX_THUMB - This is the thumb specific suffix. Curently it is defined in feature-arm-thumb.inc.

ARMPKGSFX_DSP - This is the DSP specific suffix. Currently this is set to 'e' when on armv5 and the dsp feature is enabled.

ARMPKGSFX_EABI - This is the eabi specific suffix. There are currently two defined ABIs specificed, standard EABI and Hard Float (VFP) EABI.
When the callconvention-hard is enabled, "hf" is specified, otherwise it is blank.

ARMPKGSFX_ENDIAN - This is the endian specific suffix. It is defined in the core arch-arm.inc file.

ARMPKGSFX_FPU - This is the FPU specific suffix. The suffix indicates specific FPU optimizations. 'vfp' and 'neon' are both defined.
