Toolchain - Name convention
Toolchain name usually contains the so-called target triple, which is in the form of:
arch[-vendor][-os]-abi
- arch - architecture
- arm, mips, x86, i686, etc.
- vendor - tool chain supplier
- os - operating system
- linux, none (bare metal)
- abi - application binary interface
- eabi, gnueabi, gnueabihf
Examples
arm-none-eabi
This toolchain targets the ARM architecture, has no vendor, does not target an operating system (i.e. targets a "bare metal" system), and complies with the ARM eabi. (Note) arm-elf and arm-none-eabi just use two versions of the ARM abi. The eabi toolchain uses a newer revision, but could also be called arm-elf-eabi, as it generates elf too.
i686-apple-darwin10-gcc-4.2.1
This toolchain targets the Intel i686 architecture, the vendor is Apple, and the target OS is Darwin version 10.
arm-none-linux-gnueabi
The toolchain that can be installed in Debian-based systems using a package manager like apt (the package is called gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi). This toolchain targets the ARM architecture, has no vendor, creates binaries that run on the Linux operating system, and uses the GNU EABI. In other words, it is used to target ARM-based Linux systems.
arm-linux-gcc
This is actually binary for gcc which produces objects for ARM architecture to be run on Linux with default configuration (abi) provided by toolchain.
i686-unknown-linux-gnu
32-bit GNU/linux
arm-eabi
Android ARM compiler
x86_64-w64-mingw32
x86_64 architecture means AMD64, w64 is actually mingw-w64 used as a "vendor" here, mingw32 is the same as win32 API for gcc's perspective.
i686-pc-msys
32-bit, "pc" is a generic name, msys binary
