Compiler/AM6548: Does gcc support Cortex-R5?

Part Number: AM6548

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

According to some documentation that I have seen, it seems that the gcc compiler does support the Cortex-R5 processor. We are considering switching from the TI C Compiler to gcc and, in order to evaluate this option, I would like to bring the question to the experts. Does gcc support the Cortex-R5 processor? Do you recommend the use of the gcc compiler with the Cortex-R5 processor or, on the contrary, do you see any drawback about using it?

Thanks a lot for your support.

Best regards,

Ismael

    Unfortunately, TI has not done any comparisons of the TI ARM compiler with the GCC ARM compiler.  It is unlikely the success of your project has much to do with this particular choice.  

    Thanks and regards,
