I changed the recommendation to
arm-linux-gnueabihf (hardware FP)
arm-linux-gnueabisf (software FP)

Hi

As you mentioned the Raspberry Pi: BOINC is available in the repo of Raspian,
a Debian wheezy  fork, and it uses the platform string
'arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf'.

It does make sense IMHO to differentiate in the platform string between hard
float (as with Raspbian) and soft float ABI platforms for the ARM CPU (e.g.
the native Debian wheezy for ARMv6 CPUs), because they are not binary
compatible. The project has to know what kind of executable it can send to
the client, and the natural way to do so is via the platform string.

Hello,

are there some rules which platform string a Boinc client on a ARM device
(not Android) should sent? Here
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/BoincPlatforms only Android is
mentioned.

But what about RasPi, Odroid or my NAS server which runs: # uname -a Linux
nas02 2.6.33.2 #1 Fri Apr 26 05:33:12 CST 2013 armv5tel unknown

# cat /proc/cpuinfo Processor name  : Feroceon 88F6282 rev 1 (v5l) @ 2 GHz
BogoMIPS        : 1985.74 Features        : swp half thumb fastmult edsp
CPU implementer : 0x56 CPU architecture: 5TE CPU variant     : 0x2 CPU part
: 0x131 CPU revision    : 1

Hardware        : Feroceon-KW ARM Revision        : 0000 Serial          :
0000000000000000

I know these platform strings, but which ones are prefered?: -
arm-linux-gnu - arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi - arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

What does other projects use?

kind regards, yoyo
