+ Linaro toolchain for the ARM architecture. It uses Linaro
+ GCC 2016.05 (based on gcc 5.3.1), Linaro GDB 2016.05 (based on
+ GDB 7.11.1), glibc 2.21, Binutils 2016.05 (based on 2.25). It
+ generates code that runs on all Cortex-A profile devices,
+ but tuned for the Cortex-A9. The code generated is Thumb 2,
+ with the hard floating point calling convention, and uses
+ the VFPv3-D16 FPU instructions.
