Subject: Floating point exceptions with MPC5200
Date: Mon, 19 Jan 2009 10:33:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <497448F4.7080806@grandegger.com> (raw)

Hello,

I want to provoke a "floating point exception" by doing a division by 0.
The expection does come as expected on my x86 PC:

  $ ./divby0
  Floating point exception

but not on my MPC5200 board. Any idea why? I think the processor can
handle all floating-point exceptions. I'm using Linux 2.6.28 and the
ELDK v4.2.

Wolfgang.
