(this affects both 32bit and 64bit arm isas) there is no softfloat abi, but you can still compile something without float instructions using cflag like -march=armv8-a+nofp (the -mgeneral-regs-only flag works too, but +noXXX is a generic way to turn extensions off.. so there is a zoo of variants, but binary distros will care about the baseline armv8-a only i guess)
