From 7c289a617b76fa76c7246d986aa047eeacdcd4ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Mosberger-Tang Date: Mon, 6 Aug 2007 20:51:26 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Delete explanation of how to build libunwind on ia64 with v7 of the Intel compiler. I don't think anybody is still likely to need building with such an old compiler. --- README | 17 ----------------- 1 file changed, 17 deletions(-) diff --git a/README b/README index d5d4ff99..d43e4b19 100644 --- a/README +++ b/README @@ -37,23 +37,6 @@ should look like this: $ ./configure CC=icc CFLAGS="-g -O3 -ip" CXX=icc CCAS=gcc CCASFLAGS=-g \ LDFLAGS="-L$PWD/src/.libs" -** Version 7 - -To build libunwind with the Intel Electron compiler (ECC), it is -recommended to run configure like this: - - $ ./configure CC=ecc CXX=ecc CCAS=gcc CCASFLAGS=-g \ - LDFLAGS="-L$PWD/src/.libs" - -The reason for this is that ECC uses the Intel assembler, which -doesn't grok some of the IA-64 assembly code in the "tests" directory. - -For an ECC-built version of libunwind to work properly, you also need -to ensure that /usr/include/asm/fpu.h contains a "long double" member -called "__dummy" in the declaration of "struct ia64_fpreg".
