GNU Toolchain for ARC Processors, 2023.03-rc1 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the first release candidate of 2023.03 version of the GNU Toolchain for DesignWare ARC 600, ARC 700, EM, HS3x/4x, HS5x & HS6x processors. This is a maintenance release which brings incremental improvements for major toolchain components such as GCC, Binutils & GDB for ARC processors.

GNU Documentation can be found online here https://foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors.github.io/toolchain.

A list of useful how-to instructions can also be found on the GNU Toolchain for DesignWare ARC Processors Documentation wiki.

Toolchain and IDE Components Versions

  • Binutils 2.40 with ARC patches
  • GCC 12.2 with ARC patches
  • GDB pre-14.1 with ARC patches
  • newlib 4.3.0 with ARC patches
  • uClibc-ng v1.0.43 with ARC patches
  • glibc 2.37 with ARC patches

This release of GNU toolchain is supported by CGEN IPlib (TCF generator) version 1.0.53 and later.

New Features and Enhancements

Also, here is the list of GitHub issues addressed in this release: https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/toolchain/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A2023.03+is%3Aclosed
Note, though, this list only contains issues filed against ARC GNU toolchain. Bugs and enhancements made in upstream open-source projects of each toolchain component could be found inthe corresponding bug-tracking system.

Known issues

  1. CenOS 6.x hosts are not supported any longer for both running prebuilt tools as well as for building tools, see #202.

  2. GDB compilation may intermittently fail due to unwanted regenerating intl/plural.c, see #212.

  3. [Jira P10019563-38842] Ashling Opella-XD drivers of version 1.2.6 and above to work with ARC GNU IDE required to run the Ashling GDB server separately and select "Connect to a running GDB server" in the Debug Launch.

    To run the Ashling GDB server use the following from a command prompt:

    C:\AshlingOpellaXDforARC> ash-arc-gdb-server.exe --device arc-em

    Other supported devices are arc-hs, arc-600 and arc-700.

    See section "3.2 Configuring the Ashling GDB Server" in the Ashling Opella-XD ARC User manual for more details.

  4. Newlib's libgloss doesn't support RF16 configuration of ARC cores when building for nSIM with "GNU Hostlink", see #231. But with use of "MetaWare Hostlink" RF16 configuration might be used now, see https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/newlib/blob/arc-2021.03/libgloss/arc/readme-hostlink.md for more details.

  5. Non-multilib toolchain built for ARC EM doesn't contain libdw_uart.a for EMSK, see #262

  6. macOS cross-toolchains are not being distributed in this release

Please report any problems by filing an Issue in GitHub here.

GNU Toolchain for ARC64 Processors, 2021.09

This is release of the 2021.09 version of the GNU Toolchain for 64-bit DesignWare ARC HS6x Processors.

Please note that the ARC64 toolchain only supports ARC HS6x processors, while for ARCompact (ARC600 & ARC700) & ARCv2 (ARC EM & ARC HS3x/4x) processors GNU toolchain from https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/toolchain/releases/tag/arc-2021.09-rc2 must be used and vice versa.

Currently, only 2 toolchain flavours are available in a pre-built form for ARC64: little-endian bare metal & glibc Linux toolchains.

GNU Documentation can be found online here https://foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors.github.io/toolchain.

Toolchain Versions

  • Binutils pre-2.38 with ARC patches
  • GCC 11.2 with ARC patches
  • GDB pre-12 with ARC patches
  • newlib 3.2.0 with ARC patches
  • glibc 2.34 with ARC patches

Fixes and improvements in the Release compared to Release Candidate 2

No changes were done in the release compared to Release Candidate 2.

Fixes and improvements in the Release Candidate 2 compared to Release Candidate 1

  1. Minor fixes in glibc, see foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/glibc@bd9ff29, foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/glibc@6d4367d & foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/glibc@144fa81

New Features and Enhancements

This is the first release of ARC GNU tools for ARC64 processors (namely ARC HS6x)

Known issues

  1. There's no support of ARC64 processors in ARC GNU IDE at this point, it will be added in the subsequent releases.

GNU Toolchain for ARC Processors, 2021.09

This is release of the 2021.09 version of the GNU Toolchain for DesignWare ARC 600, ARC 700, EM & HS3x/4x Processors.

GNU Documentation can be found online here https://foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors.github.io/toolchain.

A list of useful how-to instructions can also be found on the GNU Toolchain for DesignWare ARC Processors Documentation wiki.

Toolchain and IDE Components Versions

  • Binutils 2.37 with ARC patches
  • GCC 11.2 with ARC patches
  • GDB 10.2 with ARC patches
  • newlib 3.2.0 with ARC patches
  • uClibc-ng v1.0.34
  • glibc 2.34
  • Eclipse 2020-03 4.15.0 with CDT 9.11.0
  • OpenOCD 0.9+ upstream commit 30203b3d8b, with ARC support.

This release of GNU toolchain and IDE is supported by CGEN IPlib (TCF generator) version 1.0.53 and later.

New Features and Enhancements

Fixes and improvements in the Release compared to Release Candidate 2

No changes were done in the release compared to Release Candidate 2.

Fixes and improvements in the Release Candidate 2 compared to Release Candidate 1

  1. Updated documentation
  2. [Jira P10019563-49796] C++ "Hello world" sample now compiles correctly
  3. [Jira P10019563-49753] tcftool was not installed

Known issues

  1. CenOS 6.x hosts are not supported any longer for both running prebuilt tools as well as for building tools, see #202.

  2. GDB compilation may intermittently fail due to unwanted regenerating intl/plural.c, see #212.

  3. [Jira P10019563-38842] Ashling Opella-XD drivers of version 1.2.6 and above to work with ARC GNU IDE required to run the Ashling GDB server separately and select "Connect to a running GDB server" in the Debug Launch.

    To run the Ashling GDB server use the following from a command prompt:

    C:\AshlingOpellaXDforARC> ash-arc-gdb-server.exe --device arc-em

    Other supported devices are arc-hs, arc-600 and arc-700.

    See section "3.2 Configuring the Ashling GDB Server" in the Ashling Opella-XD ARC User manual for more details.

  4. Newlib's libgloss doesn't support RF16 configuration of ARC cores when building for nSIM with "GNU Hostlink", see #231. But with use of "MetaWare Hostlink" RF16 configuration might be used now, see https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/newlib/blob/arc-2021.03/libgloss/arc/readme-hostlink.md for more details.

  5. Non-multilib toolchain built for ARC EM doesn't contain libdw_uart.a for EMSK, see #262

  6. Binutils bug #431 causing pop-up with warning when using ar utility on Windows host. See #431 (comment) for work-around.

  7. Full gdb debugger is installed in .../glibc_le_archs_native/debug-root/usr/bin but not in .../glibc_le_archs_native/bin, see #439

Please report any problems by filing an Issue in GitHub here.

But with use of "MetaWare Hostlink" RF16 configuration might be used now, see https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/newlib/blob/arc-2021.03/libgloss/arc/readme-hostlink.md for more details.

  5. Non-multilib toolchain built for ARC EM doesn't contain libdw_uart.a for EMSK, see #262

  6. Binutils bug #431 causing pop-up with warning when using ar utility on Windows host. See #431 (comment) for work-around.

Please report any problems by filing an Issue in GitHub here.

Note: The toolchain is only supported for 64-bit versions of Linux hosts. 32-bit Linux hosts are not supported.

GNU Toolchain for ARC64 Processors, 2021.09-rc1 Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the first release candidate of 2021.09 version of the GNU Toolchain for 64-bit DesignWare ARC HS6x Processors.

Please note that ARC64 toolchain only supports ARC HS6x processors, while for ARCompact (ARC600 & ARC700) & ARCv2 (ARC EM & ARC HS3x/4x) processors GNU toolchain from https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/toolchain/releases/tag/arc-2021.09-rc1 must be used and vice versa.

Currently only 2 toolchain flavors are available in pre-built form for ARC64: little endian bare metal & glibc Linux toolchains.

GNU Documentation PDF files can be found online here https://foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors.github.io/toolchain.

Toolchain Versions

  • Binutils pre-2.38 with ARC patches
  • GCC 11.2 with ARC patches
  • GDB pre-12 with ARC patches
  • newlib 3.2.0 with ARC patches
  • glibc 2.34 with ARC patches

New Features and Enhancements

This is the first release of ARC GNU tools for ARC64 processors (namely ARC HS6x)

Known issues

  1. CenOS 6.x hosts are not supported any longer for both running prebuilt tools as well as for building tools, see #202.
  2. There's no support of ARC64 processors in ARC GNU IDE at this point, it will be added in the subsequent releases.
