<title>LFS Target Architectures</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The primary target architectures of this LFS edition are LoongArch
|
|
CPUs.
|
|
<!--On the other hand, the instructions in this book are
|
|
also known to work, with some modifications, with the Power PC and ARM
|
|
CPUs. -->
|
|
To build a system that utilizes one of these CPUs, the main prerequisite, in
|
|
addition to those on the next page, is an existing Linux system such as an
|
|
earlier LFS installation, Loong Arch Linux, CLFS for LoongArch, Gentoo,
|
|
Slackware, or other distribution that targets LoongArch.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The build that results from this LFS edition is a
|
|
<quote>pure</quote> lp64d system. That is, it supports executables with
|
|
the lp64d ABI
|
|
only. Building a <quote>multi-lib</quote> system requires compiling many
|
|
applications multiple times, once for each ABI to be supported.
|
|
This is not directly supported in LFS because it would interfere with the
|
|
educational objective of providing the minimal instructions needed for a
|
|
basic Linux system. Some of the LFS/BLFS editors maintain a multilib fork
|
|
of LFS, accessible at <ulink
|
|
url="https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/~thomas/multilib/index.html"/>. But
|
|
the multilib edition is for x86_64, and multilib is an advanced topic
|
|
anyway.</para>
