Hi Heba,

There are three possibilities:
1) The program requires correct FP exception behavior to work. This usually 
isn't the case and I don't think we handle arithmatic faults in SE mode 
correctly for any ISA. 
2) There is a bug with our Alpha support that make making you hit his issue
3) There is a bug with gcc that generated the the binary. You should be able to 
specific -mcpu=21264.

If (1) is the problem then you'll need to run with Linux on some ISA. You can 
see what happens by compiling and running the app for a different ISA. The FP 
support for ARM is very solid so I would start there, but be careful about 
command line again. Depending on the exact compiler you're using you generally 
need to specify VFPv3 support and/or neon.



Thanks,
Ali
