-Subject: [PATCH] portable.h: fix build with gcc older than 4.8
-
-__builtin_bswap16 is available in all gcc architectures only since
-version 4.8. Older gcc versions fail to build:
-
-imx_sdp.o: In function `perform_dcd':
-.../imx_sdp.c:1138: undefined reference to `__builtin_bswap16'
-imx_sdp.o: In function `write_dcd_table_ivt':
-.../imx_sdp.c:457: undefined reference to `__builtin_bswap16'
-imx_sdp.o: In function `write_dcd':
-.../imx_sdp.c:410: undefined reference to `__builtin_bswap16'
-imx_sdp.o: In function `init_header':
-.../imx_sdp.c:1075: undefined reference to `__builtin_bswap16'
-
-Use a local implementation instead. The implementation suggested by
-Arnout Vandecappelle on the Buildroot mailing list.
