Hello All, I have a technical question regarding GCC 2.8.1 compiler for powerpc-eabi target. I need to use my own startup code for PowerPC instead of default startup module from GNU NEWLIB 1.8.0 library (newlib/libgloss "mvme-crt0.S") also it is necessary to build application without LIBGCC library (this application is embedded real-time application, therefore it is not necessary to support relocatable code, initialize offset tables, etc). My own startup code has to perform ordinary initialization (initialize r1, r2, r13 registers, clear BSS and call main). But I have found that LIBGCC 1.8.0 "eabi.asm" file contains a bunch of functions (besides "__eabi", "__eabi_convert", "__eabi_uconvert") with names like "_savefpr_XX", "_savegpr_XX", "_restfpr_XX", "_restgpr_XX", "_restfpr_XX_x", "_restgpr_XX_x". As I realized from file comments this functions have to be called internally by GCC. Therefore I have the following questions: 1. In what cases this functions will be called? 2. Is it possible to avoid such function calls in the generated code? Or this functions correspond to some obsolete compiler version? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
