How to rebuild the mathlib?

Andy Yin

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MATHLIB

Hi experts,

We want to use mathlib but they are of different function names (e.g. cosf() becomes cossp()). 

In order to not change our code, we tried to rebuild mathlib with OVERRIDE_RTS = 1 but not succeed. Can you suggest us the method?

Thank u very much.

Best Regards.

    Andy,

    It sounds like you wish to rebuild the C66x mathlib, is that correct? That library does not come from the compiler team. I will move this thread to the C66x device forum as the folks there will be more knowledgeable about this.

    Aarti,

    I had moved it to C/C+ Compiler forum.  There's no indication of what platform this was referring to and mathlib is a generic library, it's not directly supported by the C66x forum members and I felt it would get more traction in the C/C+ Compiler forum.

    Best Regards,

    Andy,

    You didn't answer the question that was asked, which was for what platform are you rebuilding the the Mathlib.

    Hi Chad,

    It is for C66X platform.Below pls find the reason why the ctm wants to rebuild a lib while not use the existed.

    The actual reason to rebuild mathlib is that the mathlib is really difficult to be applied to our existing code (need code changes everywhere) since they are of different function names (e.g. cosf() becomes cossp(), operator “/” (or divf()) becomes divsp()). 

    The idea to rebuild mathlib with OVERRIDE_RTS = 1 was actually come from http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/bios/f/355/t/212010.aspx (this thread suddenly ended without further info so we have no idea how they solved the problem). We think rebuild mathlib with OVERRIDE_RTS = 1 is true since it does exist in mathlib source code and it indicates it is “rts entry for xxxxx function”.

    Regards,

    Andy

    Hi Andy,

    Sorry for the delay. We are still working on the issue that caused the failure to build with OVERRIDE_RTS. As soon as it is done, I will post the solution here. Thanks for your patience.

    regards,

    Hi Andy,

    Sorry for the long delay. We have decided to make a patch release to address this RTS override issue. You should see the release in about a month.
