A C library contains things like <stdio.h>, <string.h>, and the
associated functions like fopen, strcpy, etc.  GCC does not provide a C
library.

You've described your target in terms of processor, but not in terms of
operating system.  Some operating systems have a C library.  Some do
not.  Either way, you're going to need one if you want to write C code.
And you're going to cross-compiler your C library in order to
cross-build programs that run on your target system.
