Hi,

Like the ARM port, the AArch64 ports needs to set glibc_integral_traps 
to false as integer divide instructions do not trap.

Bootstrapped and regression tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu

Ok to apply ?

regards
Ramana

         * configure.host: Define cpu_defines_dir for AArch64
         * config/cpu/aarch64/cpu_defines.h: New file.

Not really questioning your patch but questioning libstdc++'s defaults. I wonder if this should be the default as most targets don't trap, only a few that does. And it should be safer default to say they don't trap too?

Thanks,
Andrew

How about we  #error out if targets do *not* define some of these
defaults in libstdc++  ? There are far more ports with weak memory
models, and the defaults for _GLIBCXX_READ/WRITE_BARRIER also appear
unsafe . I was toying with a patch like that to force targets to
define this sort of thing but I need to read more of configure.host
before I make up my mind.

__glibcxx_integral_traps seems to be used for the 'traps'
numeric_limits<T> member.

i think it can only be meaningful if LIA-1 is properly supported
(eg. div-by-zero is never optimized away) otherwise the standard
dictates UB and anything can happen. (Note that LIA-1 also requires
well-defined semantics for signed int overflow).

i don't see a way for conforming c++ code to use traps, or for
the library to guarantee either traps==true or traps==false on
any machine.
