L3.0.35_4.1.0 armhf

[mtx512]

Given the availability of L3_0_35_4.1.0 (i.MX 6 Q/D/DL/S L3.0.35_4.1.0 GA release) why don't freescale provide the armhf libraries in addition to armel?

Hello Jas,

The armhf libraries are not available because the i.MX6 has the NEON co-processor for floating point calculations.

Let me know if you have any other question.

Hi,

I tried to build the LTIB 3.0.35_4.1.0 BSP, but I got build error and stopped. Below is the error message, I don't understand what the error is. I wonder if any one can help me to figure out what is the problem.

I have checked the directory /tmp/rpm-byang/RPMS/ that there is no x86_64 subdirectory. I don't know what is error actually is?

I don't understand your response, it doesn't make sense!

The gpu armhf libraries are available for BPS 4.0.0 and alpha kernel 3.5. I am requesting why the armhf libraries are not available for BSP 4.1.0 and also why they don't become immediately available upon BSP release?

Furthermore why has the question being marked as answered when it clearly hasn't?

[SergioSolis]

Hello Jas,

Please take a look at the following thread:

armhf libraries for imx6

It answers your question, let me know if you have any other question.

[mtx512]

The thread you provided doesn't answer the question I am asking.  :smileyshocked:

I would be grateful if someone from Freescale who understands the question provide the answer?

Hi Jas,

I just ran across this post while looking for some information about GPU compatibility with X versions.

Based on your very nice image, it seems that this question is answered.

The 3.5.7 and 3.10.9 binaries contain HF options.
