+ cc-fullversion
|
|
|
+ cc-fullversion is useful when the exact version of gcc is needed.
|
|
|
+ One typical use-case is when a specific GCC version is broken.
|
|
|
+ cc-fullversion points out a more specific version than cc-version does.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Example:
|
|
|
+ #arch/powerpc/Makefile
|
|
|
+ $(Q)if test "$(call cc-fullversion)" = "040200" ; then \
|
|
|
+ echo -n '*** GCC-4.2.0 cannot compile the 64-bit powerpc ' ; \
|
|
|
+ false ; \
|
|
|
+ fi
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ In this example for a specific GCC version the build will error out explaining
|
|
|
+ to the user why it stops.
