pulseaudio issue

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

I have an issue with pulseaudio:

|   CC     libpulsecore_0.9.21_la-svolume_arm.lo
| pulsecore/svolume_arm.c: In function 'pa_volume_s16ne_arm':
| pulsecore/svolume_arm.c:53: error: can't find a register in class
'LO_REGS' while reloading 'asm'
| pulsecore/svolume_arm.c:53: error: 'asm' operand has impossible constraints
| make[3]: *** [libpulsecore_0.9.21_la-svolume_arm.lo] Error 1

From searching the irc log this is a longer standing issue.
Is there any suggested solution for this.
If I understand corrrectly it affects all our armv4 and armv5 machines.

Indeed. Pulseaudio has broken armv4 and armv5 support since a couple of
versions. We should probably add some COMPATIBLE_ARCH (do we have that?)
as a duct tape until someone knowledgable can fix the ARM ASM portions
for good.

Cheers,

We have COMPATIBLE_HOST. Guess that can be used.
0.9.15 builds fine for arm5. Haven't exained the differences in that file yet

well its not arm v4 or v5 but its thumb. If you use arm instruction
set then it would
work. set ARM_INSTRUCTION_SET = "arm" in the recipe and retry.

That seems to have helped a little bit but not enough.
Apparently there is armv6 asm or so in it:
