Hi, Some years ago, I used to use sparc-ab-elf- to build linux kernel.
I thought that tool was for building bare-metal program. (because linux kernel is a kind of bare-metal program itself) We had also sparc-ab-linux- that were used for compiling application that runs on linux. Recently, I found a website that I should use aarch64-linux-gnu tool to build the kernel. I tried following it and it generated vmlinux file. (I can't find the web page link, but I'm sure I wrote that procedure down when I built vmlinux) Now I find it strange, because the tool name 'aarch64-linux-gnu-' seems to be the one for compiling application on linux! Am I missing something? Could anyone clarify what is wrong with my idea? Chan
