Features:

• All GCC 9.2 features, plus latest mainline features.

Known Changes and Issues:

• Doing IPA on CMSE generates a linker error:
  The linker will error out when resulting object file contains a symbol for the clone function with the __acle_se prefix that has a non-local binding. Issue occurs when compiling binaries for M-profile Secure Extensions where the compiler may decide to clone a function with the cmse_nonsecure_entry attribute. Although cloning nonsecure entry functions is legal, as long as the clone is only used inside the secure application, the clone function itself should not be seen as a secure entry point and so it should not have the __acle_se prefix. A possible work around for this is to add a ‘noclone’ attribute to functions with the ‘cmse_nonsecure_entry’. This will prevent GCC from cloning such functions.

The GNU Toolchain for the Cortex-A Family is a ready-to-use, open source suite of tools for C, C++ and Assembly programming. This toolchain targets processors from the Arm Cortex-A family and implements the Arm A-profile architecture.

The toolchain includes the GNU Compiler (GCC) and is available free of charge directly for Windows and Linux operating systems. Follow the links on this page to download the correct version for your development environment.

See the downloaded package Release Notes, which are linked from this page, for full installation instructions.

Features

• All GCC 8.3 features. For details on GCC 8 release series, please refer to the list of changes, new features, and fixes.
• Linaro specific pre-processor macros to ensure that this is a continuation from the Linaro releases.
• Spectre v1 mitigation backport from upstream FSF trunk include the revisions listed below. This is an initial backport of those mitigations in the GNU toolchain and should be regarded as support for prototyping and early access only. Moreover, while the backports include support for the other architectures, they are included for completeness and all issues regarding these patches must be taken up upstream in the https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla by reproducing the same with upstream FSF trunk. Arm is interested in feedback regarding these workarounds for Spectre v1. A description of the mitigation has been published on LWN.net.

Installation instructions

Extract XZ compressed release archive using TAR archiving utility:

Compute and check MD5 checksum of XZ compressed release archives using md5sum utility:

The prebuilt binary bundles can be un-tarred and executed in place. Assuming a RHEL6 host. Unpack the Linux cross toolchain:

Building toolchain from source

You can build GNU cross-toolchain for the A-profile from sources using Linaro ABE (Advanced Build Environment) and provided ABE manifest files.

Below example shows how to build gcc-arm-aarch64-linux-gnu toolchain from sources using Linaro ABE build system.

Instructions

Clone ABE one of the URL below and checkout the stable branch (see Getting ABE):

Create the build directory and change to it. Any name for the directory will work (see Building Toolchains With ABE):

Configure ABE (from the build directory):

And finally build toolchain (from the build directory):

Known issues

• Spectre v1 mitigations are provided here for early access and thus might have stability issues. On AArch32 we are currently aware of one issue as documented at PR86951.
• GDB’s Python support requires Python compiled with UCS-4 support (built with —enable-unicode=ucs4) for both hosts x86_64 and i686-mingw32.
• GDB’s Python support requires Python DLL dependencies for i686-mingw32 host.
• Toolchains dedicated for i686-mingw32 host require mingw-w64 library, a complete runtime environment for GCC.

Ask questions

For any questions, please use the Arm Communities forums.

Report bugs

Please report any bugs via the Linaro Bugzilla.
