yocto imx53qsb sdcard image (armel vs armhf)

[ssinfod]

Hello, I followed the instructions from this training (Yocto Training - HOME) to build a Yocto image for my imx53qsb,

The Yocto image I got for the imx53qsb doesn't seem to have the armhf support. (File: core-image-base-imx53qsb.sdcard)

Therfore, any programs compiled for armhf are not working in that image..

Is it possible to add armhf support in the imx53qsb yocto image ?

Do I have to change the the local.conf file or another file ? How do I specify that I want an armhf image ?

Thanks

I've not used imx53, only imx6 but I expect the principles are similar.

For imx6 I can switch between hardfp and softfp by adding this line to conf/local.conf

DEFAULTTUNE_mx6 = "cortexa9hf-neon"

or

DEFAULTTUNE_mx6 = "cortexa9-neon"

You might want to try something similar with "cortexa8hf-neon"

I think the available tune options are shown in sources/poky/meta/conf/machine/include/tune-coretexa8.inc (see AVAILTUNES).
