error: ethercat uses VFP register arguments, ../master/soe_errors.o does not
Dear sittner, I try to use this on my beaglebone black. When I dpkg-buildpackages, there is some errors as follows.
/usr/bin/ld: error: ethercat uses VFP register arguments, ../master/soe_errors.o does not
/usr/bin/ld: failed to merge target specific data of file ../master/soe_errors.o

Linux version 3.8.13-xenomai-r78 (root@a6-imx6q-wandboard-2gb) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-14) ) #1 Sat Sep 26 16:54:43 UTC 2015
Can you help me. Thanks.

@AceXIE the error happens, because kernel modules get not built with VFP registers IMHO.
A work-around I found is to touch ../master/soe_errors.c after the error happens and re-run make.
This needs more investigation.
