A cross compiler is a compiler capable of creating executable code for a platform other than the one on which the compiler is run.
Cross compiler tools are used to generate executables for embedded system or multiple platforms.
It is used to compile for a platform upon which it is not feasible to do the compiling, like microcontrollers that don't support an operating system.
It has become more common to use this tool for paravirtualization where a system may have one or more platforms in use.
Not targeted by this definition are source to source translators, which are often mistakenly called cross compilers.

The speech here on the arm of the Forum has done often is not possible to create a single distribution for all subarchitectures that are there.
It's a bit 'That's why I pulled the string on the understanding that you create, because obviously right now there is no standard arm, and then everyone should take the trouble to compile for the version you have and then share it with others along with packages .
It is hoped that in future architecture has prevailed over all others not otherwise ever be able to take advantage of the arm."
And most likely there are others too. I did put this in the google search bar.Posted 01 August 2010 - 08:28 AM
So I've taken some early steps with the Linux kernel released by VIA last week. Very early days so far.Up at http://github.com/pr...s/kernel_wm8505My notes so far about the kernel build/install process are on the README on that page.
If you're interested in building kernels for WM8505, I suggest cloning this git repository instead of working from VIA's tarball because a few minor things have been cleaned up (and the repository has a copy of kernel config for M001, etc.)
Please share anything you discover or improve.I'm hoping VIA will come to the party with the binary parts, otherwise the next step is probably going to be attempting to reverse-engineer and replace all the binary-only video components.
