New description:

 The attached patch adds support for the armv6l architecture to Cactus,
 essentially just pointing to linux. It also tells Cactus about the number
 of cacheline bytes on that architecture (32).

Comment:

 The number of cacheline bytes is wrong for most architectures. For
 example, modern x86 processors have 64 bytes, not 32. I would not use this
 information anywhere.

 Your architecture is "gnueabi". This uses software floating point, which
 is less efficient than hardware floating point. I am using "gnueabihf".
 Are you sure you are not using the hardware floating point ABI?

 Please apply.
