Bare-metal target for 32-bit ARM CPUs.
18+
19+
If a target has a `*hf` variant, that variant uses the hardware floating-point
20+
ABI and enables some minimum set of floating-point features based on the FPU(s)
21+
available in that processor family.
22+
23+
## Requirements
24+
25+
These targets are cross-compiled and use static linking.
26+
27+
By default, the `lld` linker included with Rust will be used; however, you may
28+
want to use the GNU linker instead. This can be obtained for Windows/Mac/Linux
29+
from the [Arm Developer Website][arm-gnu-toolchain], or possibly from your OS's
30+
package manager. To use it, add the following to your `.cargo/config.toml`:
31+
32+
```toml
33+
[target.<your-target>]
34+
linker = "arm-none-eabi-ld"
35+
```
36+
37+
The GNU linker can also be used by specifying `arm-none-eabi-gcc` as the
38+
linker. This is needed when using GCC's link time optimization.
39+
40+
[arm-gnu-toolchain]: https://developer.arm.com/Tools%20and%20Software/GNU%20Toolchain
41+
42+
These targets don't provide a linker script, so you'll need to bring your own
43+
according to the specific device you are using. Pass
44+
`-Clink-arg=-Tyour_script.ld` as a rustc argument to make the linker use
45+
`your_script.ld` during linking.
46+
47+
Targets named `thumb*` instead of `arm*`
48+
generate Thumb-mode code by default. M-profile processors (`thumbv*m*-*`
49+
targets) only support Thumb-mode code.
50+
For the `arm*` targets, Thumb-mode code generation can be enabled by using
51+
`-C target-feature=+thumb-mode`. Using the unstable
52+
`#![feature(arm_target_feature)]`, the attribute
53+
`#[target_feature(enable = "thumb-mode")]` can be applied to individual
54+
`unsafe` functions to cause those functions to be compiled to Thumb-mode code.
55+
56+
## Building Rust Programs
57+
58+
For the Tier 3 targets in this family, rust does not ship pre-compiled
59+
artifacts.
60+
61+
Just use the `build-std` nightly cargo feature to build the `core` library. You
62+
can pass this as a command line argument to cargo, or your `.cargo/config.toml`
63+
file might include the following lines:
64+
65+
```toml
66+
[unstable]
67+
build-std = ["core"]
68+
```
69+
70+
Most of `core` should work as expected, with the following notes:
71+
* If the target is not `*hf`, then floating-point operations are emulated in
72+
software.
73+
* Integer division is also emulated in software on some targets, depending on
74+
the CPU.
75+
* Architectures prior to ARMv7 don't have atomic instructions.
76+
77+
`alloc` is also supported, as long as you provide your own global allocator.
78+
79+
Rust programs are output as ELF files.
80+
81+
## Testing
82+
83+
This is a cross-compiled target that you will need to emulate during testing.
84+
85+
The exact emulator that you'll need depends on the specific device you want to
86+
run your code on.
87+
88+
## Cross-compilation toolchains and C code
89+
90+
The target supports C code compiled with the `arm-none-eabi` target triple and
91+
a suitable `-march` or `-mcpu` flag.
92+
93+
`gcc` or `clang` can be used, but note that `gcc` uses `-fshort-enums` by
94+
default for `arm-none*` targets, while `clang` does not. `rustc` matches the
95+
`gcc` behavior, i.e., the size of a `#[repr(C)] enum` in Rust can be as little
96+
as 1 byte, rather than 4, as they are on `arm-linux` targets.

This is a cross-compiled target that you will need to emulate during testing.

Because this is a device-agnostic target, and the exact emulator that you'll
6423
need depends on the specific device you want to run your code on.

For example, when programming for the DS, you can use one of the several available DS emulators, such as [melonDS](https://melonds.kuribo64.net/).

# `arm(eb)?v7r-none-eabi(hf)?`
2+
3+
**Tier: 2**
4+
5+
Bare-metal target for CPUs in the ARMv7-R architecture family, supporting
6+
dual ARM/Thumb mode, with ARM mode as the default.
7+
8+
Processors in this family include the [Arm Cortex-R4, 5, 7, and 8][cortex-r].
9+
10+
The `eb` versions of this target generate code for big-endian processors.
11+
12+
See [`arm-none-eabi`](arm-none-eabi.md) for information applicable to all
13+
`arm-none-eabi` targets.

## Requirements
22+
23+
When using the big-endian version of this target, note that some variants of
24+
the Cortex-R have both big-endian instructions and data. This configuration is
25+
known as BE-32, while data-only big-endianness is known as BE-8. To build
26+
programs for BE-32 processors, the GNU linker must be used with the `-mbe32`
27+
option. See [ARM Cortex-R Series Programmer's Guide: Endianness][endianness]
28+
for more details about different endian modes.
29+
30+
When using the hardfloat targets, the minimum floating-point features assumed
31+
are those of the `vfpv3-d16`, which includes single- and double-precision, with
32+
16 double-precision registers. This floating-point unit appears in Cortex-R4F
33+
and Cortex-R5F processors. See [VFP in the Cortex-R processors][vfp]
34+
for more details on the possible FPU variants.
35+
36+
If your processor supports a different set of floating-point features than the
37+
default expectations of `vfpv3-d16`, then these should also be enabled or
38+
disabled as needed with `-C target-feature=(+/-)`.

43+
44+
## Cross-compilation toolchains and C code
45+
46+
This target supports C code compiled with the `arm-none-eabi` target triple and
47+
`-march=armv7-r` or a suitable `-mcpu` flag.
