Description

TL'DR

What is this project?

This project provides the Latest, CI maintained, Precompiled Raspberry Pi CPU optimized GCC Cross & Native (ARM & ARM64) Compressed Standalone Toolchains, that is fastest to setup and saves you tons of time and helps you to get quickly started with software development on Pi.

Who will benefit from the project?

This project benefits everyone, from Professional Devs to a college research Student, looking for latest easy-to-use precompiled GCC toolchains for their Hobby Raspberry Pi project(s).



This project now utilizes powerful Github Actions CI(Continuous Integration) to auto-compile Compressed GCC Cross & Native ARM/ARM64 Toolchain binaries and thereby auto-deploy them to SourceForge repository.

Additional Information

Supported ARM Devices:

  • All Raspberry Pi hardware/versions/models are currently supported.
  • Any other ARM Device(such as android, IoT) with similar Hardware architecture(see Optimization Flags) should also work.

Optimization Flags Involved:

These toolchains are built with these following system-specific LTO (Link Time Optimization) flags, therefore you can easily take advantage of your Raspberry Pi's CPU specific features with these Toolchains while compiling your programs:

Important: The latest Raspberry Pi 5 uses a Broadcom BCM2711 SoC with a 2.4GHz 64-bit Quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor, that also have armv8-a architecture similar to Raspberry Pi 4, therefore it is also officially supported!

Raspberry Pi Board Link Time Optimization Flags
Raspberry Pi - Zero W/WH/2W & 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+ & 4 Model 400/B & 5 & Compute 3/3-lite/3+/4 (32-Bit) -march=armv8-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8
Raspberry Pi - 3 Model A+/B+ & 4 Model B 400/B & 5 & Compute 3/3-lite/3+/4 (64-Bit) -march=armv8-a+fp+simd
