9 It ... fixes the 'printf("%f\n", 0.5); prints 0.000000' and general 'floating point
10 is broken' on my big-endian hardfloat FPA ARM platform. ...
11 It's definitely needed for hardfloat. So I'd think it's needed for
12 big-endian systems in any case, and for VFP on little-endian systems
13 too. Someone would have to verify that though.

16 I just had a look at glibc-20040830, and [this patch] is still needed and useful
17 for this version. glibc-20040830 out-of-the-box still contains the
18 following wrong assumptions:
19 - sysdeps/arm/bits/endian.h: float word order is big endian (which it is
20 not on vfp systems)
21 - sysdeps/arm/gmp-mparam.h: IEEE doubles are mixed endian (which they
22 are not on big endian systems, neither on vfp systems)
23 - sysdeps/arm/ieee754.h: IEEE doubles are in little endian byte order
24 (which they are not on big endian systems)
25 [This patch] seems the right solution for all of these issues.

28 It's even needed for glibc CVS, AFAICS.
29 The patch hunk which modifies glibc.new/sysdeps/arm/bits/endian.h
30 (currently at version 1.4) is only needed for proper VFP operation.
31 But the hunk which modifies sysdeps/arm/gmp-mparam.h, and the hunk
32 that deletes sysdeps/arm/ieee754.h (yes, this IS correct), are needed
33 for proper operation of *any* FP model on big endian ARM.

49Hi, Dan, This is a patch I applied to my glibc-2.3.2, then my softfloat
50toolchain can printf("%f\n",1.0). So you may have a try of this
