           Summary: Detect VFP at runtime in generic ARM port on Linux
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: loki at inf.u-szeged.hu


We should detect that the VFP is present at runtime instead of at build
time for ARM architectures. On Linux there is a possible solution to do
this. The /proc/self/auxv contains some architecture specific flags.
One of them is responsible for the VFP. I am going to attach a patch
which solves this issue.
