MIPS Architectures

MIPS can be divided into the following targets for a code generator:

  • MIPS 32-bits EL - named mipsel
  • MIPS 32-bits EB - named mips
  • MIPS 64-bits EL - named mips64el
  • MIPS 64-bits EB - named mips64

These names are compatible with the ones used in Linux.

It should be noted that 64-bits MIPS processors can run 32-bits software and that Debian, for example, only offers pre-compiled CDs for 32-bits mips and mipsel, so usually one simply writes 32-bits software for MIPS or MIPS-EL, ignoring the possibility of writing 64-bits software.
