enable fixed point

Hi Chris,

Did you try making the change in the main poky include file?

poky/meta/recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-cross-canadian.inc

GCCMULTILIB = "--enable-multilib"

or You can pass the same by using EXTRA_OECONF:append:arm in your gcc append layer.

Thanks,

Prasanth R

This command shows the recipes used

bitbake -g adsp-sc5xx-minimal && cat pn-buildlist | grep -ve "nativ" | sort | uniq | grep gcc

gcc
gcc-cross-aarch64
gcc-runtime
gcc-source-11.2.0

I put the enable-fixed point in all these places

gcc-runtime.inc:EXTRA_OECONF:append:arm = " --enable-fixed-point"
gcc-cross.inc:EXTRA_OECONF:append:arm = " --enable-fixed-point"
gcc/0035-gentypes-genmodes-Do-not-use-__LINE__-for-maintainin.patch: /* Create a fixed-point mode by setting CL, NAME, BYTESIZE, IBIT, FBIT,
gcc-crosssdk.inc:GCCMULTILIB = "--disable-multilib --enable-fixed-point"
gcc-configure-common.inc:EXTRA_OECONF:append:arm = " --enable-fixed-point"

It still failed to compile

error: fixed-point types not supported for this target

Hi Chris,

kindly share the steps or command used for compiling.

Thanks,

The problem is not the build steps,
I can build the compiler but it still doesn't know about fixed-point

gcc.gnu.org/.../Fixed-Point.html

If I Change the "fract" type to in32_t the application compile compiles
#define fract _Fract
#undef fract
#define fract int32_t

Adding --enable-fixed-point has either not been used or I have put it in the wrong files.

Hi Chris,

Apologize for the confusion,

I asked for the step used to compile your application using the cross-compiler. Just to confirm the flags passed to compile the application.

I could see some references showing some compiler flags to get the fixed point.

I will try my compiler with a simple example and let you know,

Thanks,
