STM32Cube F4 V1.17.0 has incorrect CMSIS GCC library

Hi ST,

I have just downloaded 'STM32Cube_FW_F4_V1.17.0' and found it has 'libarm_cortexM7l_math.a' in CMSIS folder.

There is no cortexM4 file so I am confused if M7 library is compatible with M4.

I think this is a mistake because I can't seem to find any info on your release note about this.

I can use V1.16.0 M4 library instead of V1.17.0 M4 but I would use the new one if M4 lib has been updated. 

Cheers.

Would tend to agree. Just copy the files over from V1.16.0

I don't think you actually need to copy the V1.16.0 libs over; I just added both the 1.17 and 1.16 library paths (in that order) to the library paths. Once we get an updated FW release with this fixed, I think I can just delete the library paths once updated.
