# Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
#
# When an existing Config.in symbol is removed, it should be added again in
# this file, and take appropriate action to approximate backward compatibility.
# This will make the transition for the user more convenient.
#
# When adding legacy symbols to this file, add them to the front. The oldest
# symbols will be removed again after about two years.
#
# The symbol should be copied as-is from the place where it was previously
# defined, but the help text should be removed or replaced with something that
# explains how to fix it.
#
# For bool options, the old symbol should select BR2_LEGACY, so that the user
# is informed at build-time about selected legacy options.
# If there is an equivalent (set of) new symbols, these should be select'ed by
# the old symbol for backwards compatibility.
#
# For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In
# this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if
# the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select
# BR2_LEGACY.
# If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value
# of the old symbol as default. This requires a change outside of
# Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such below, so that
# removal of legacy options also include the removal of these external
# references.
#
# [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR]
# original symbol:
# config BR2_FOO_STRING
# string "Some foo string"
#
# becomes:
# config BR2_BAR_STRING
# string "Some bar string"
# default BR2_FOO_STRING if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" # legacy
#
# and in Config.in.legacy:
# config BR2_FOO_STRING
# string "The foo string has been renamed"
# help
# <suitable help text>
#
# config BR2_FOO_STRING_WRAP
# bool
# default y if BR2_FOO_STRING != ""
# select BR2_LEGACY
#
# # Note: BR2_FOO_STRING is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in
#
# [End of example]

This option is selected automatically when your old .config uses an
option that no longer exists in current buildroot. In that case, the
build will fail. Look for config options which are selected in the

The BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE option was available to

does not always work. Moreover, Qt knows by itself for which
architectures JIT support is possible, and will

Therefore, this option was in fact useless, and causing
build problems when enabled on architectures for which the
JIT support was not available. It has been removed, and
there is no replacement: Qt will enable JIT at compile time
when possible.

gdb: convert to the package infrastructure This commit converts gdb to the package infrastructure, and therefore moves it from toolchain/gdb to package/gdb. The target package is now visible in "Package selection for the target" => "Debugging, profiling and benchmark". The main option, "gdb", forcefully selects the "gdbserver" sub-option by default. Another sub-option, "full debugger" allows to install the complete gdb on the target. When this option is enabled, then "gdbserver" is no longer forcefully selected. This ensures that at least gdbserver or the full debugger gets built/installed, so that the package is not a no-op. The host debugger is still enabled through a configuration option in "Toolchain". It is now visible regardless of the toolchain type (it used to be hidden for External Toolchains). The configuration options relative to the host debugger are now in package/gdb/Config.in.host, similar to how we have package/binutils/Config.in.host. Since gdb is now a proper package, it is no longer allowed to 'select BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG' to ensure thread debugging is available when needed. Instead, it now 'depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG'. This option, in turn, is selected by the different toolchain backends when appropriate. The 'BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG_IF_NEEDED' option is removed, since we no longer need to know when it is allowed to 'select BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG'. Also, the 'BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG' option is moved to appear right below the thread implementation selection (in the case of the Buildroot toolchain backend).
