−	== Tool ~~Chain~~ ==	+	This page has links to various tool chains and tool chain resources, which might
		+	be of interest.
		+
		+
		+
		+
		+	== Toolchain sites ==
		+	=== General ===
		+	==== Crosstool ====
		+	Jim Wilson said the following on LKML:
		+	I recommend Dan Kegel's page for anyone trying to build a cross compiler
		+	to linux. See
		+	http://kegel.com/crosstool
		+	This isn't very hard to follow, and it gives you a properly configured
		+	and built gcc/glibc for the target.
		+
		+	The University of Szeged has been doing benchmarking of GNU tools
		+	across processor architectures, but including ARM. There's a site at
		+	http://www.inf.u-szeged.hu/gcc-arm/
		+
		+	==== Debian ====
		+	Debian has packages which support cross-compilation.
		+	The following source packages can be used to build cross-compilers.
		+	** http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/toolchain-source
		+	** http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/toolchain-source-gdb
		+	** http://packages.debian.org/testing/devel/toolchain-source-newlib
		+
		+	There are also (binary) library/headers packages, from
		+	Debian packages for the target architectures, which support cross-compilation.
		+
		+	dpkg-cross is a tool for installing libraries and headers for cross compiling
		+	in a way similar to dpkg. See:
		+	** http://packages.debian.org/testing/utils/dpkg-cross
		+
		+	Please see /usr/share/doc/toolchain-source/README from the toolchain-source
		+	package for more information.
		+
		+	=== Architecture-specific ===
		+	==== ARM ====
		+	You may wish to examine the following mailing list: linux-arm-toolchain@lists.arm.linux.org.uk
		+
		+	Several ARM toolchain combo's have been discussed often in the recent
		+	past. List archives are at: http://lists.arm.linux.org.uk/pipermail/linux-arm-toolchain/
		+
		+	===== Building GCC 4.0 from scratch =====

		+
		+	===== [[Code Sourcery]] =====
		+	- You can now download ARM GNU tool chains (source and pre-built releases) from http://www.codesourcery.com where you will have regular builds of the tool chain, integrating support for new core functionality. The current release include support for [[ARM v6]] cores (binutils) and VFP support.

		+	We have had success using the ARM toolchain specified by handhelds.org. There
		+	are both a binary available and a script for building your own.
		+
		+	A description of the toolchain and how to use it on a HP iPAQ is available in
		+	our Master's Thesis in Appendix A (p 92). This may be downloaded here:
		+	http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/umbrella/Umbrella.pdf?download

		+	Jamey Hicks wrote:
		+	The handhelds.org toolchain binaries, sources, and build script are at ftp://ftp.handhelds.org/pub/linux/arm/toolchain/
		+
		+	The build script is actually crosstool 0.27, with slight changes I made to it for the particular selection of binutils, gcc, and glibc versions.
		+
		+	===== Greg Ungerer ARM multi-lib toolchain build =====
		+	Greg writes:
		+
		+	Maybe this is interresting to some.
		+	This is the instructions I put together for building a gcc-3.3.4
		+	based ARM toolchain that is multi-lib-ed to be able to build for
		+	all of big and little endian targets, and using either soft
		+	or hard float.
		+
		+	http://ftp.snapgear.org/pub/snapgear/tools/arm-linux/build-arm-linux-3.4.4
		+
		+	Its nice just having one tool chain for all those varients
		+	(I generate code for both little and big endian targets on a
		+	daily basis, and everything from small non-mmu ARM7 cores to
		+	xscale, all with the same tool chain).
		+
		+	== Toolchain downloads ==
		+	Some member companies have provided sources and binaries for toolchains
		+	they are using for forum work.
