-Remove arm tests that don't compile
-
-Upstream-Status: Pending
-
-Corrects the original commit for the patch that removed ARM ptest CFLAGS
-settings. Since the flags could be set by a user, the flags should
-be kept in place during compilation. By keeping the original up-stream
-CFLAGS for the tests, then additional tests successfully compile
-for all tested ARM tunings.
-
-However, there were still two tests listed below that did not compile
-for any beaglebone tuning that is valid for valgrind. With the updated
-patch, the set of excluded ARM ptests and their respective build
-failures are:
- intdiv - fails for all beaglebone tunings with 2 errors:
- {standard input}:(40 or 41): Error: selected processor does not
- support Thumb mode `udiv r3,r9,r10'
- {standard input}:(72 or 73): Error: selected processor does not
- support Thumb mode `sdiv r3,r9,r10'
-
- vcvt_fixed_float_VFP - fails for all beaglebone tunings in one of
- two ways:
- with neon tuning (-mfpu=neon) fails with Internal Compiler Error
- without neon tuning fails with 3 errors:
- {standard input}:33: Error: selected FPU does not support
- instruction -- `vcvt.f32.s32 s15,s15,#1'
- {standard input}:58: Error: selected FPU does not support
- instruction -- `vcvt.f32.s32 s15,s15,#32'
- {standard input}:136: Error: selected FPU does not support
- instruction -- `vcvt.f32.u32 s15,s15,#1'
-
-After applying this commit, the valgrind ARM ptests compile without
-errors for tunings:
- armv7[t][hf][b][-neon] cortexa8[t][hf][-neon]
-where the tuning [option] was successfully compiled, both with
-and without the 'option', and in combination with all other options.

+From 3edcad177058150a841a88cf0798fdc0bd0dad43 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Andre McCurdy <armccurdy@gmail.com>
+Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2016 16:00:00 -0800
+Subject: [PATCH] use appropriate -mcpu/-mfpu for vcvt_fixed_float_VFP
+
+vcvt_fixed_float_VFP.c contains embedded vfpv3 instructions. Ensure
+that it is always compiled with appropriate -mcpu/-mfpu flags to
+support the instructions being tested. The aim is to build all tests,
+even ones which may not run correctly on all target CPUs.
+
+See similar cases in none/tests/arm/Makefile.am
