| The GNU C library supplied with Sourcery G++ Lite uses the EABI-based | |
| kernel syscall interface. This means applications compiled with Sourcery G++ | |
| require at least a 2.6.16 kernel with EABI syscalls enabled. | |
| </p><p> | |
| To provide VFP and Advanced SIMD registers, | |
| <code class="command">gdbserver</code> requires support from the Linux kernel. | |
| Linux 2.6.30 includes the necessary support; for older versions, | |
| visit the <a class="ulink" href="http://support.codesourcery.com/GNUToolchain/kbentry117" target="_top"> | |
