ARM/Raspberry-Pi Cross & Native Compilers

Latest Set of Precompiled GCC Cross & Native Compiler Binaries/Toolchains for Raspberry Pi - v2.5 (Stable-Release)

Update 06 March 2019: Bump to Version 8.3.0 and Major enhancements including separately optimized binaries for all Raspberry Pi Models.

Summary:

This project contains the UpToDate set of Precompiled Raspberry pi GCC Cross & Native Compilers Binaries/Toolchains, saving your tons of time(No compiling or Error Handling needed whatsoever). Just Extract, Link & Enjoy complete GCC(Raspberry Pi) functionality in your Machine. You can use its native compilers for Raspberry Pi(Can be used along with old & slow 6.3.0 GCC), Or use the Cross-Compiler in any Linux Machine(Tested on Latest Ubuntu/bionic x64) to compile programs for your Raspberry Pi. All these compilers binaries are Raspberry Pi hardware optimized for enhanced overall performance.

Supported GCC Versions:

GCC 6.3.0
GCC 7.4.0
GCC 8.2.0
GCC 8.3.0

Supported Raspberry Pis:

All Raspberry Pi versions/models are currently supported.
Any other ARM Devices with similar Hardware configurations may also work.

Optimation Flags Involved:

These gcc compilers can optimize code by taking advantage of CPU specific features.

Board	Optimation Flags
Raspberry Pi - Zero/ Zero W/ Zero WH & 1 Model A/B/A+/B+	`-march=armv6 -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfp`
Raspberry Pi - 2&3 Model A/B	`-march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon-vfpv4`
Raspberry Pi - 3 Model A+/B+	`-march=armv8-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8`

Supported Environments:

Cross-Compiler: All Linux Distros (x32/x64) are currently supported.
Native-Compiler: All Raspberry Pi version/model with Raspbian OS is supported. Other OS may/maynot work.
