GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 712367
Prevent the NEON check in configure from passing under aarch64.
Last modified: 2014-01-13 10:52:24 UTC
The test verifies that the NEON C intrinsics work, but the rest of the codebase uses lots of direct ARMv7 NEON assembly. The same intrinsics work in A64, but the assembly is slightly different. Prevent the check from passing so that we don't use this where it won't work. Patch originally by William Grant <wgrant@ubuntu.com>
