Toolchain Releases

v1.6.0

This release bumps GCC from 10.3 to 11.3

  • New features

    • Include a Fortran compiler to make it easier to create Nerves systems that require Fortran.

  • Tool versions

v1.5.0

This should be a low risk update to v1.4.3. The main purpose is to make libgomp available. It remains on GCC 10, but pulls in the latest patch releases of associated build tools..

v1.4.3

This release bumps the Linux headers from 4.14 to 4.19. This requires that your Nerves system uses Linux 4.19 or later.

  • New features

    • Store a Build-ID by default. A Build-ID uniquely identifies an executable or shared library and is useful for matching up debug symbols to produce useful stack traces from C and C++ programs.
    • A 64-bit RISC-V crosscompiler is now available.

  • Tool versions

    • GCC 10.2
    • Linux 4.19 headers (except for RISC-V)
    • glibc 2.33
    • binutils 2.36.1

v1.4.2

This release reverts the switch from 4.14 headers to 4.4 headers in v1.4.0. This re-enables libgpiod (cdev), bluez5, iwd, and ply (eBPF) which required headers after 4.4.

  • Fixes

    • ARMv7 toolchain now defaults to "generic-arm-v7a" rather than "cortex-a9". This fixes a potential issue of generating invalid ARM instructions, but it appears that this did not affect ARM Cortex-A7 and A8 platforms supported by Nerves.

  • Tool versions

    • GCC 10.2
    • Linux 4.14 headers
    • glibc 2.33
    • binutils 2.36.1

v1.4.1

This release adds host support for native Mac M1 toolchains.

Hardware float has been enabled on the armv6 toolchain to further consistency with https://toolchains.bootlin.com configurations.

  • Updated dependencies
    • nerves_toolchain_ctng v1.8.2

v1.4.0

This release updates gcc from version 9.2.0 to 10.2.0 and includes various updates to the C runtime. See https://gcc.gnu.org/ for the many changes in the gcc 10.x releases.

All toolchains have been renamed to set the vendor to nerves. ARM32 toolchains were renamed for consistency with https://toolchains.bootlin.com naming.

nerves_toolchain_aarch64_unknown_linux_gnu        -> nerves_toolchain_aarch64_nerves_linux_gnu
nerves_toolchain_armv5tejl_unknown_linux_musleabi -> nerves_toolchain_armv5_nerves_linux_musleabi
nerves_toolchain_armv6_rpi_linux_gnueabi          -> nerves_toolchain_armv6_nerves_linux_gnueabi
nerves_toolchain_arm_unknown_linux_gnueabihf      -> nerves_toolchain_armv7_nerves_linux_gnueabihf
nerves_toolchain_i586_unknown_linux_gnu           -> nerves_toolchain_i586_nerves_linux_gnu
nerves_toolchain_mipsel_unknown_linux_musl        -> nerves_toolchain_mipsel_nerves_linux_musl
nerves_toolchain_x86_64_unknown_linux_gnu         -> nerves_toolchain_x86_64_nerves_linux_gnu
nerves_toolchain_x86_64_unknown_linux_musl        -> nerves_toolchain_x86_64_nerves_linux_musl

Linux headers were downgraded from 4.14.160 to 4.4.214 to support using toolchains with systems using older versions of Linux.

  • Tool versions

    • GCC 10.2
    • Linux 4.4.214 headers

  • Updated dependencies

    • nerves v1.7
