Hello,
here is a new try on adding __float128 typeinfo to libsupc++. The front-end
part is based on the discussion with Jason yesterday. The libstdc++ part is
copied from:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2014-04/msg00077.html
(which wasn't reviewed), but I changed the testsuite.
Michael will likely need to make some adjustments to his __float128 patch,
but I believe it will only be a small configure tweak.
Ramana, does it look safe for ARM? By the way, do you want to remove the
XFmode defined in arm-modes.def and apparently unused?
Thanks for this though I know Tejas is actually trying to fix AArch64
first and then we'll move on to ARM for cleaning up all these types -
as you realize it's quite a chunky project.
Nice to know. I am a bit afraid it might be hard without breaking ABI
compatibility at least a little. Good luck anyway.
A patch to remove XFmode is pre-approved.
Even for such a trivial patch, it would be good to do at least a build to
check nothing breaks, but I don't have an easy way to do that (debian
multiarch cross-builds don't work out of the box), it would be better if
one of the people working on ARM could handle it.
I'll try and have a look at this patch later today or over the weekend
to see if it doesn't affect ARM / AArch64.
Thanks!
