Thanks.

In the native PS2SDK (i.e. no Linux) I detected that there are undefined references to `__fixtfsi', `__floatsitf', `__subtf3', `__multf3', `__extenddftf2', `__lttf2' and `__gttf2'. These are the functions for handling "long double".
There is a fix needed for this in libgcc. I attached 2 patches to this e-mail. There should be only one of the patches used to fix this.
The first one fixes the problem for all mips systems. The second one fixes this only for r5900. I think it is a general problem. I assume the undefined references could appear on all mips64 systems which are not Linux. So the first patch should be applied.
Checking for "ac_cv_sizeof_long_double" should work on all mips systems, but I don't know why the check was only in the mips*-linux part of the file libgcc/config.host.

Best regards
Jürgen

The second patch is right.  Not all targets have 128-bit long doubles,
so t-tpbit is intentionally an opt-in rather than opt-out thing.

E.g. mips*-sde-elf and mips*-mti-elf both use:

#undef LONG_DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE
#define LONG_DOUBLE_TYPE_SIZE 64

to get a form of n32 in which long doubles are the same as doubles.

Do you want to stick with 128-bit long doubles for PS2, or would you
prefer to do what SDE does?

Thanks,
Richard

I prefer shorter long doubles because of the performance impact. For 32 bit hard float we may need it. Can you change it or do I need to submit a patch?
