I would not expect to see 'thumb'
However, there are no arm libraries for Cortex-A7:

Where aren't their arm versions of the libgcc? And just thumb versions only?
Many thanks in advance, Arjan
ARM Mode give not much benefit in most code over Thumb-2. This might be the reason there are no "Arm" only libs.
May I assume that there is no overhead in calling the Thumb-2 library functions from ARM ?
