Good catch Lauren. Gary, your machine must be missing a proper machine
overrides setting. Please take a look.



I started with a clone of imx6ulevk.conf which does not contain this



Thanks for the pointers.  Somehow I ended up with an incorrect
override in my i.MX6UL machine config files which I've now corrected.

I don't foresee any problem in using hardfp for UL.

[meta-freescale] i.MX6Q vs i.MX6UL tuning

2016-10-11 Thread Gary Thomas

I'm working with machines that have i.MX6Q/DL and i.MX6UL and noticed
that they have quite different tuning.

i.MX6Q:
  TUNE_FEATURES = "arm armv7a vfp thumb neon callconvention-hard cortexa9"
  TARGET_FPU= "hard"

i.MX6UL:
  TUNE_FEATURES = "arm armv7ve vfp thumb neon cortexa7"
  TARGET_FPU= "softfp"

I've not adjusted any GCC tuning for these targets.  Just wondering
why the i.MX6Q is hardfp and the i.MX6UL is soft?  Anyone know why
this choice was made?
