Summary: Powerpc -mcpu=power5 selects FP found instructions (should use -mcpu=power5+) Product: gcc Version: 4.6.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: target AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: meiss...@gcc.gnu.org Created attachment 22335 --> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=22335 Patch to fix the problem. In my change on August 23rd, 2010 and September 2nd, 2010, I mistakenly enabled the floating round instructions (-mfprnd) for -mcpu=power5 (ISA 2.02), while these instructions weren't added until later (ISA 2.04, or -mcpu=power5+). The -mcpu=power5 option should not enable the floating point round instructions.
