Description Denis I. Polukarov 2011-08-23 15:18:35 UTC

Need ebuild in armv7a subprofile for Cortex-A9 CPU (Tegra 2) without NEON, such as in http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxChromiumArm:
{
  'variables': {
    'target_arch': 'arm',
    'sysroot': '/path/to/rootfs',
    'disable_nacl': 1,  # NaCL does not build for ARM.
    'linux_use_tcmalloc': 0, # tcmalloc does not build for ARM.
    'armv7': 1, # Optional, for targeting ARMv7.
    'arm_thumb': 1, # Optional, for targetting thumb.  Combine with armv7 to target thumb2.
    'arm_neon': 0, # Optional, to disable NEON. 1 is the default, and most people want to keep it that way.
    'arm_fpu': 'vfpv3-d16', # Optional, to select which version of vfp to use if NEON is off. Default is vfpv3.
  }
}

Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
An ebuild for target subprofile with needed options. Maybe with system_v8 && system_ffmpeg... :)

Sorry, I don't quite get what you're asking for. Did you have bug #372155 in mind maybe?

Comment 2 Denis I. Polukarov 2011-08-29 12:23:08 UTC

Maybe add ebuild for subprofile arm/armv7a with optional NEON & VFP, because not all SoC with Cortex-a9 have NOEN... some have NEON, some have VFP (by example, Tegra 2 have: VFP support v0.3: implementor 41 architecture 3 part 30 variant 9 rev 1)... in CFLAGS I've: -mcpu=cortex-a9 -mfpu=vfpv3-d16 -mhard-float...

Sorry I have no idea what "ebuild for subprofile" means. Please note that www-client/chromium is not keyworded for ~arm at all.
