* PowerPC G4 AltiVec support for gcc? @ 2000-01-11 19:13 Greg Allen 2000-01-11 19:58 ` David Edelsohn 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Greg Allen @ 2000-01-11 19:13 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linuxppc-dev, crossgcc I've done some net searching, without any luck. Does anyone know of a project to add PPC AltiVec support to gcc, and where may I find them? I'm not even concerned with "automatic" AltiVec generation -- I'd be happy with inline assembly (or the AltiVec PIM). It seems my only options for the time being are CodeWarrior and MPW on MacOS.

If all he wants is inline assembly why does gcc have to be Altivec aware? Isn't it enough for the assembler to recognize the instructions? -- Joel Sherrill, Ph.D. Director of Research & Development joel@OARcorp.com On-Line Applications Research Ask me about RTEMS: a free RTOS Huntsville AL 35805 Support Available (256) 722-9985 ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
