Recapitalise ARMvX{-Y} to ArmvX{-Y}
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Yes it looks weird, but this is how Arm write it now.

I left ARM64 alone, because it's a Microsoft/Apple term but not an Arm term (they have Armv8-A and Armv9-A architectures, which say that A64 instructions are executed when in the Aarch64 state), and I don't want to get into that, especially for a Tier 1 target.

# armeb-unknown-linux-gnueabi
**Tier: 3**

Target for cross-compiling Linux user-mode applications targeting the ARM BE8 architecture.
Target for cross-compiling Linux user-mode applications targeting the Arm BE8 architecture.

## Overview
BE8 architecture retains the same little-endian ordered code-stream used by conventional little endian ARM systems, however the data accesses are in big-endian. BE8 is used primarily in high-performance networking applications where the ability to read packets in their native "Network Byte Order" is important (many network protocols transmit data in big-endian byte order for their wire formats).

BE8 is used primarily in high-performance networking applications where the ability to read packets in their native "Network Byte Order" is important (many network protocols transmit data in big-endian byte order for their wire formats).

## History
BE8 architecture is the default big-endian architecture for ARM since [ARMv6](https://developer.arm.com/documentation/101754/0616/armlink-Reference/armlink-Command-line-Options/--be8?lang=en). It's predecessor, used for ARMv4 and ARMv5 devices was [BE32](https://developer.arm.com/documentation/dui0474/j/linker-command-line-options/--be32). On ARMv6 architecture, endianness can be configured via [system registers](https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0290/g/unaligned-and-mixed-endian-data-access-support/mixed-endian-access-support/interaction-between-the-bus-protocol-and-the-core-endianness). However, BE32 was withdrawn for [ARMv7](https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0406/cb/Appendixes/Deprecated-and-Obsolete-Features/Obsolete-features/Support-for-BE-32-endianness-model) onwards.

## Requirements
The target is cross-compiled. This target supports `std` in the normal way (indeed only nominal changes are required from the standard ARM configuration).

## Target definition
The target definition can be seen [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/tree/master/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/armeb_unknown_linux_gnueabi.rs). In particular, it should be noted that the `features` specify that this target is built for the ARMv8 core. Though this can likely be modified as required.

## Building the target
Because it is Tier 3, rust does not yet ship pre-compiled artifacts for this target.

[Here](https://github.com/lancethepants/tomatoware-toolchain) is a sample toolchain that is built using [buildroot](https://buildroot.org/). It uses modern toolchain components, older thus universal kernel headers (2.6.36.4), and is used for a project called [Tomatoware](https://github.com/lancethepants/tomatoware). This toolchain is patched so that its sysroot is located at /mmc (e.g., /mmc/bin, /mmc/lib, /mmc/include). This is useful in scenarios where the root filesystem is read-only but you are able attach external storage loaded with user applications. Tomatoware is an example of this that even allows you to run various compilers and developer tools natively on the target device.

### Native compilation

Since this target supports host tools, you can natively build rust applications directly on your target device. This can be convenient because it removes the complexities of cross compiling and you can immediately test and deploy your binaries. One downside is that compiling on your ARMv7 CPU will probably be much slower than cross compilation on your x86 machine.
