Hi, Christophe, Rick

Thank you for the detail explanation.
Now I think I understand some of them, and can start search for what I don't know via google.

Thanks again.

Best Regards,
Yongqin Liu

This is correct.
The names are derived from the "target triplet" used to configure the
tools, which describe the target CPU architecture, as well as the
target OS.
aarch64: target is AArch64, little endian
aarch64_be: target is AArch64, big endian
arm: target is AArch32, little endian
armeb: target is AArch32, big endian

none-elf and none-gnueabi: bare metal (that is, no target OS)
linux: target OS is linux

In gnueabihf, the 'hf' means that the ABI variant is the "hard-float" one.

The rest of the naming includes the release number (e.g. 4.8 branch,
2013.09 release), and:
linux: host OS is linux (x86 PC)
win32: host OS is Windows
src: source code
runtime: target runtime libraries
