When -msoft-float was added for ppc32 (powerpc) the error message for it = not being supported for ppc64 was added. Strahinja Petrovic added the support and the review materials had = exchanges about ppc64, such as ( http://reviews.llvm.org/D13351 ): > Remove this FIXME. It is not clear this will ever be supported (is = there actually ppc64 hardware without an FP unit)? > I'm planning to support soft float for ppc64. At this moment I don't = know name of ppc64 hardware without FP unit. I know that gcc supports = soft float for ppc64. The review was closed 2015-Dec-15. The commit for powerpc (non-64) ( = http://reviews.llvm.org/rL255515 ) was on 2015-Dec-14. =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net
