lowRISC toolchain builds

This repository contains tools to create toolchains for lowRISC internal use. The toolchains are not supported by lowRISC or recommended to be used outside of lowRISC.

Head over to the GitHub releases for this repository for pre-built toolchains.

  • A GCC RV32IMC without hardfloat support, targeting Ibex
  • A GCC RV64IMAC, targeting Muntjac
  • A GCC elf multilib toolchain
  • A GCC linux multilib toolchain

How to do a release

  1. Modify any of the following variables to configure the build:

    • CROSSTOOL_NG_VERSION in install-crosstool-ng.sh

  2. Modify any of the *.config files to update the crosstool-ng configurations for a particular toolchain.

  3. Push the changes or do a pull request, and wait for the pipeline to complete.

    The build can be tested by downloading the Azure Pipeline artifacts.

    1. Go to the lowrisc-toolchains Azure Pipelines page
    2. Select a build
    3. Click on "Artifacts" (top right)
    4. Download the desired artifact, and test it.

  4. Tag a release

    VERSION=$(date +%Y%m%d)-1
git tag -a -m "Release version $VERSION" $VERSION

  5. Push the tag

    git push origin $VERSION

    Now the release builds on Azure Pipelines, and the resulting binaries will be uploaded to GitHub releases.

# checkout Pirmin's bitmanip 1.00+0.93 PR (https://github.com/riscv-collab/riscv-binutils-gdb/pull/267)
gh pr checkout 267
# 7c9dd840 (riscv-binutils-2.35-rvb) is our baseline
