Subject: [PATCH] configure: Check whether we can compile the s390-ccw bios with -msoft-float
Date: Tue, 25 May 2021 16:20:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210525142032.156989-1-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)
The -msoft-float switch is not available in older versions of Clang.
Since we rely on the compiler to not generate floating point instructions
unexpectedly, we block those old compilers now via a test in the configure
script. Note that for some weird reasons, the Clang compiler only complains
about the missing soft-float support if no other flags are passed via
"-Wl,..." to the linker. So we have to use "compile_object" instead of
"compile_prog" for this check.
