installed all the required *toolchain build* dependencies (see
[the toolchain README file](file:util/gcc-toolchain-builder/README.md).)
To control the load of your host machine when building the toolchain, you can use
the environment variable `NUM_JOBS` to limit the number of concurrent jobs launched
by `make`:
- if left undefined, `NUM_JOBS` will default to 1, resulting in a sequential execution
of `make` jobs;
- when setting `NUM_JOBS` to an explicit value, it is recommended not to exceed 2/3 of
the total nuber of virtual cores available on your system.
```sh
# Set environment variable RISCV to the desired installation location.
# The toolchain can be installed in any user-writable directory.
