Description Nitin Kamble 2012-05-10 16:06:01 UTC

the gcc x32 changes are part of released gcc version 4.7. the x32 enabled gcc in the meta-x32 layer can be replaced by using the gcc4.7 from the poky master. 

Tasks:
  1. Migrate to gcc v4.7 for x32 compiler
  2. check if it causes any breakages
  3. fix these breakages

Comment 1 Nitin Kamble 2012-06-05 19:08:03 UTC

the gcc 4.7 from poky layer is working well with x32 layer. I tested it by creating an x32 image with gcc 4.7 from poky.git and it the image builds right binaries and runs well.
