   Some new information: the manufacturer of the SOM did a analysis of 
the compiled program. We were told that the program makes use of the SWP 
instruction which is deprecated since ARMv6 and was deactivated in the 
kernel we used. They build a new kernel with the deprecated instruction 
activated which is running the test program without any error.
   Now we can use this new kernel for further tests.

   Is there any compiler switch to control the generated code and 
therefore the chance to avoid this deprecated instruction?


Greetings,
