[Buildroot] [PATCH 4/4] arch: remove BR2_GCC_TARGET_ARCH definitions on ARM

[Yann E. MORIN]

Thomas, All,

On 2014-09-15 23:01 +0200, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> On ARM, we were defining both the CPU type and the architecture
> variant. However, depending on the version of gcc, a given combination
> of (CPU, architecture) may not be the same. Since the architecture
> variant is implied by the CPU type, given the former is not necessary,
> and we can simply specify the latter.
> 
> From the gcc documentation:
> 
>   This specifies the name of the target ARM processor. GCC uses this
>   name to derive the name of the target ARM architecture (as if
>   specified by -march) and the ARM processor type for which to tune
>   for performance (as if specified by -mtune). Where this option is
>   used in conjunction with -march or -mtune, those options take
>   precedence over the appropriate part of this option.
> 
> Note that we verified that for all BR2_GCC_TARGET_ARCH value that
> existed, a proper BR2_GCC_TARGET_CPU value is defined.

I guess we'll keep this one in limbo until we have a final answer on
switching from -mcpu to -mtune for ARM.

Yann E. MORIN.
