Red Hat Set To Provide GNUPro Linux Toolchain To Motorola Customers

📅 March 11, 2002 - Red Hat, Inc., an open source, Linux provider, today announced an agreement with Motorola, Inc. to develop a GNUPro Linux toolchain and cross compiler for Motorola's AltiVec-enabled host processors based on the PowerPC instruction set architecture. Red Hat (redhat.com) will provide a complete toolchain for the PowerPC instruction set architecture with full support for Motorola's AltiVec technology.

Red Hat's GNUPro development toolchain will enable Motorola customers to develop Linux-based applications that compliment Motorola's powerful AltiVec 128-bit vector execution unit. The GNUPro Linux toolchain consists of a Linux PPC Native Toolchain for AltiVec-enabled PowerPC instruction set architecture compliant processors, and a cross toolchain to the PowerPC ISA with AltiVec.
?Providing complete support of AltiVec in the GNUPro toolchain for the first time, Red Hat is enabling embedded designers to not only develop Linux-based applications for PowerPC-compliant processors, but also take advantage of the wide data paths and incredible performance that Motorola's AltiVec technology delivers,? said Bob France, director of software for Motorola Semiconductor's Networking and Computing Systems Group.
