Compilation options for leon2

[ingolf.steinbach at googlemail.com (Ingolf Steinbach)]

Hi,

make/custom/leon2.cfg sets "CPU_CFLAGS = -mcpu=cypress -msoft-float".

Is there a reason for not using -mcpu=v8 here?

I understand that the -msoft-float is needed in order to avoid FPU
instructions in RTEMS libraries which could cause trouble if executed
in non-FPU tasks, interrupt service routines, ... However, user code
need not specify -msoft-float if there is an FPU and if the tasks are
configured for FPU usage. Is that correct?

Kind regards
Ingolf
