Build GCC For HiSilicon Hikey 970

Posted on Edited on In ,

By following our previous blog Build GCC, we should be able to CROSS-BUILD GCC for various ARM architectures. Today, we are building GCC 9.1.0 for Hikey 970, which is of aarch64 architecture. (More details about aarch64 can be found on ARM architecture )
