Hi all,
I'm writing an audio driver and the hardware requires floating point
arithmetic. When I build the kernel I get the following errors at link
time:
Floating point + kernel = no no. If the hardware requires floating point
manipulations this should go in userspace.
These symbols are coming from gcc. What I would like to do is link the
kernel with libgcc to solve this errors. I'm looking at the kernel
makefiles and it doesn't seem obvious to me how to do it. Does anyone
know how I can link the kernel with libgcc, or point me in the right
direction ?
This is almost certainly a bad idea. The functions inside libgcc are not
designed to run inside a kernel.
