[Linaro-gsoc] Can gcc from linaro tool chain generate .axf files for running code on Foundation v8

Hi,

My self Amit Rawat an Engineering student from NIT Hamirpur.(H.P, India). I am interested to work on the project "SIMD support for fftw3(FFT library). I have started getting my self familiarize with tools. I am learning SIMD instruction and fftw3 library. But I am stuck at one point i.e how to generate the .axf file. My question is can I generate it using the gcc compiler provided by linaro or I have to use the armcc and armlink. I am using Foundation v8 for running the binary. I am available at iirc with nick amraw.

Thanks, Amit Rawat.
