199+ ### Building toolchain on Windows
200+
201+ To build toolchain for Windows hosts it is recommended to do a "canadian
202+ cross-compilation" on Linux, that is toolchain for ARC targets that runs on
203+ Windows hosts is built on Linux host. Build scripts expect to be run in
204+ Unix-like environment, so it is often faster and easier to build toolchain on
205+ Linux, that on Windows natively. While environments like Cygwin and Msys allow
206+ toolchain to be built on Windows natively this way is not officially supported
207+ and not recommended by Synopsys. Further instructions for building toolchain
208+ for Windows hosts can be found at [ Windows-specific page]
209+ (windows-installer/README.md#notes-cross-compiling-for-windows).
