Dear Mr Gerum,
thank you for your kind answer.
As you can see in the example code I do not call explicitly either
_savefpr_XX or rthal_save_fpu and their restore counterparts. I only
do some floating point operations in a Xenomai domain kernel thread.
However the linker misses the routines mentioned earlier.
Are there linker flags to change this behaviour?
One important note, in the kernel configuration the hardware FPU
support is switched on. (CONFIG_XENO_HW_FPU=y)
-msoft-float with hw FPU looks suspicious. I don't understand why you
mention C runtime libraries when building kernel modules either.
Building with eldk 5.2.1 for fpu-enabled 6xx cores can be done with
eldk-5.2.1/powerpc/sysroots/i686-eldk-linux/usr/bin/powerpc-linux/powerpc-linux-gcc
from a stock eldk install.
Actually, running fpu code in kernel space is a bad idea in the first
place. Xenomai supports this for desperate situations when porting relic
code absolutely requires it, but this is clearly something that should
be avoided. You should really consider moving all that stuff to userland
if the situation is not that desperate.
