This variable was always meant to be used from DISTRO config, why not add it to: oe-core/meta/conf/distro/include/default-distrovars.inc or oe-core/meta/conf/distro/include/tcmode-default.inc ? On Sat, May 19, 2018 at 1:40 AM Khem Raj wrote: > > On Fri, May 18, 2018 at 3:50

2018-05-18 Thread Andre McCurdy
Although there may still be specific cases which can benefit from the ARM instruction set, the Thumb2 instruction set is generally a better default for armv7a class CPUs. Distros such as Debian and Fedora have been targeting Thumb2 by default for some time. Note that setting ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET
