Thank you all very much for your comments and advice! It certainly has helped me to gain a better perspective on porting GCC to a new architecture. It's not directly a suggestion from my "Betreuer"; a few suggested it as a Praktikum or as a masters thesis, and I wanted to look into it and see wh

Hello, In a course at my university (Universität Würzburg, Germany) we have created a 32-bit RISC CPU architecture -- the HaDesXI-CPU -- (in VHDL) which we then play onto a FPGA (the Xilinx Spartan-3AN) to use. So far if we want to do anything with it, we have to write the assembly code ourselves
