I would like to know the difference between GCC and LLVM. Will the GCC port code support the LLVM toolchain as well?
I am currently using the GCC compiler for my project and I am seeing a ‘deprecated’ message for the RL78 GCC toolchain. It recommends switching to LLVM. I would like to know the difference between GCC and LLVM. Additionally, I am planning to implement FreeRTOS, but the port code is not available for LLVM, whereas it is available for GCC. Will the GCC port code support the LLVM toolchain as well?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us!
We are not aware of any information regarding the support of the LLVM RL78 toolchain by the FreeRTOS project.
Our recommendation is to contact their customer support about this issue.
Given the compatibility with both GCC and CC-RL, described in the LLVM for Renesas RL78 toolchain’s user manual, we don’t see any reason that would prohibit the implementation of an LLVM FreeRTOS port.
Best regards,
