There are a number of choices, depending on exactly which modes you need support for, and exactly which modes are implemented in hardware.  E.g. a target with no FP hardware and no 128-bit long double needs only soft-float sf and df.  A target with FP hardware that supports 32-bit float only, and supports 128-bit long double, needs soft-float df and tf.  Etc.  See the various target independent and target dependent t-softfp files and pick one that matches your situation.

In libgcc/config.host we currently have:
tmake_file="${tmake_file} t-softfp-sfdf t-softfp-excl t-softfp"

However, compiling a program that uses __mulsf3() throws the following error:
error: implicit declaration of function ‘__mulsf3’; did you mean
‘__mulsc3’? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

Compilation is done using -nostdlib -lgcc

Any idea what else is missing ?
