<h4 class="subsubsection">9.27.9.4 Linking different FP ABI variants</h4>
|
|
<p>Modules using the default FP ABI (no floating-point) can be linked with
|
|
any other (singular) FP ABI variant.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Special compatibility support exists for O32 with the four
|
|
double-precision FP ABI variants. The ‘<samp>-mfpxx</samp>’ FP ABI is specifically
|
|
designed to be compatible with the standard double-precision ABI and the
|
|
‘<samp>-mfp64</samp>’ FP ABIs. This makes it desirable for O32 modules to be
|
|
built as ‘<samp>-mfpxx</samp>’ to ensure the maximum compatibility with other
|
|
modules produced for more specific needs. The only FP ABIs which cannot
|
|
be linked together are the standard double-precision ABI and the full
|
|
‘<samp>-mfp64</samp>’ ABI with ‘<samp>-modd-spreg</samp>’.
