Thomas, All,

On 2014-10-19 22:08 +0200, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> According to the gcc documentation for PowerPC options:
> 
> '-mtune=CPU_TYPE'
>      Set the instruction scheduling parameters for machine type
>      CPU_TYPE, but do not set the architecture type, register usage, or
>      choice of mnemonics, as '-mcpu=CPU_TYPE' would.  The same values
>      for CPU_TYPE are used for '-mtune' as for '-mcpu'.  If both are
>      specified, the code generated will use the architecture, registers,
>      and mnemonics set by '-mcpu', but the scheduling parameters set by
>      '-mtune'.
> 
> In the case of Buildroot where we only target a specific system, using
> -mtune therefore doesn't make much sense, and using -mcpu would be
> more appropriate. As a consequence, this patch makes PowerPC use
> BR2_GCC_TARGET_CPU instead of BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE.
