m68k-amigaos-gcc — Cross-Compiler

Overview

m68k-amigaos-gcc is the GCC-based cross-compiler for AmigaOS, typically based on GCC 2.95 (legacy) or GCC 6.5 (bebbo's fork). It produces Amiga hunk-format executables and supports all 68k variants.

Installation (bebbo's toolchain)

# Docker-based (recommended):
docker pull bebbo/amiga-gcc
docker run -v $(pwd):/work bebbo/amiga-gcc m68k-amigaos-gcc -o hello hello.c

# Native build (Linux/macOS):
# NOTE: bebbo removed his repos from GitHub. Use Codeberg or his personal git:
git clone https://codeberg.org/bebbo/amiga-gcc.git
# Mirror: https://franke.ms/git/bebbo/amiga-gcc
cd amiga-gcc
make update
make all -j$(nproc)
# Installs to /opt/amiga/

Usage

# Compile and link:
m68k-amigaos-gcc -noixemul -o hello hello.c

# Common flags:
#   -noixemul       — use libnix (no ixemul.library dependency)
#   -m68000          — target 68000 (default)
#   -m68020          — target 68020+
#   -m68040          — target 68040
#   -m68060          — target 68060
#   -m68881          — use 68881/68882 FPU
#   -Os              — optimise for size
#   -O2              — optimise for speed
#   -fomit-frame-pointer — free up A5
#   -fbaserel        — base-relative addressing (small data model)
#   -resident        — generate resident-capable code
#   -g               — include debug info (HUNK_DEBUG)
#   -s               — strip symbols

Startup Code

Startup	Description
`libnix`	Minimal C runtime, no shared library dependency
`ixemul`	Unix-like C runtime (requires ixemul.library)
`crt0.o`	Raw startup — no C runtime at all

Inline/Pragma System Calls

/* Use inline headers to call library functions via registers: */
#include <inline/exec.h>
#include <inline/dos.h>

/* Or use proto headers (auto-select inline vs pragma): */
#include <proto/exec.h>
#include <proto/dos.h>
