-The RTEMS kernel is developed on a host computer where the user's application
-code is cross-compiled to the target hardware's processor instructions and
-linked to the RTEMS kernel and language runtime libraries, and any 3rd party
-packages. RTEMS is not a multiprocess operating system and self hosting the
-types of tools need to create executables is not feasable. As a result a range
-of support tools are needed and they need run on the wide range of avaliable
-host computers users wish to develop on. This section details the tools
-available on host computers RTEMS users and developers need to create RTEMS
-executables.
