toolchain/uClibc/patches-0.9.32/950-detect_bx_availibility.patch

   1 The "use BX" option is now a suggestion that BX be used if available.
   2 Use a macro to detect if BX is available at build time. If so, and
   3 the user requested it be used, then use it. Otherwise, error out.

  23 -         Use BX instruction for THUMB aware architectures.
  24 +         Say 'y' to use BX to return from functions on your thumb-aware
  25 +         processor. Say 'y' if you need to use interworking. Say 'n' if not.
  26 +         It is safe to say 'y' even if you're not doing interworking.
