On am5728-evm board, if thumb is enabled, an attempt to play an h264-encoded
video fails with:
"illegal instruction in libgstlibav.so, ff_h264_idct_dc_add_neon()”

if we do it, we should do it for rpb distro only. if it's a bug upstream then it should be dicussed on oe-core list.

There are some more details like gdb log snippets under https://projects.linaro.org/browse/MMWG-79 . I would appreciate if people go and take a look.

I am not familiar enough with thumb, and can't tell if the illegal instruction is due to a bug upstream, or due to e.g. the SOC hw bug (my am57xx-evm is fairly early revision, but I am not aware of any errata like that). And I don't have other armv7 boards handy. Hm.. maybe checking db410c with a 32-bit rootfs could make sense before posting to oe-core list?
