Therefore, the recommended and only supported way of using NEON/VFP in the kernel is by adhering to the following rules: * isolate the NEON code in a separate compilation unit and compile it with - '-mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp'; + '-march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp'; * issue the calls to kernel_neon_begin(), kernel_neon_end() as well as the calls into the unit containing the NEON code from a compilation unit which is *not* built with the GCC flag '-mfpu=neon' set. |
