A repository of prebuilt ARM cross-compilation toolchains for building software targeting Raspberry Pi boards. The project is officially deprecated, with users directed to install equivalent toolchains from distro package managers like Ubuntu apt.
Use cases
- cross-compile c programs for raspberry pi
- build armv6 binaries for pi zero
- get gcc arm linux gnueabihf toolchain
- compile kernel modules for raspberry pi from x86 host
When to choose
- you need a legacy prebuilt toolchain matching old Raspberry Pi build flags
- you cannot install a distro toolchain and need a self-contained binary
When to avoid
- you are starting a new project - use gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf or gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu from your distro
- you need maintained, up-to-date compiler versions
