package/glibc: switch to using the maintenance branch glibc upstream has ruled against doing regular point-releases, but they do have a lot of interesting and important fixes for regressions and security. Backporting each patch, or cherry-picking individual patches is off limits for us, so we just switch to using the currently-latest HEAD of the maintenance branch instead. The version number is obtained with: $ git describe --match 'glibc-*' --abbrev=40 origin/release/2.26/master The alternative options were: - download the tarball from the git tree --> does not work; not an option - download the 2.26 tarball, and bundle the individual patches in Buildroot --> maintenance of patches is a burden; not an option - download the 2.26 tarball, maintain the list of patches to download from the git tree --> not an option for the same reason So we end up just doing a git clone. The git tree is today about ten times the size of the tarball, so a rough estimate makes it at about ten times the download time. Also upstream doesn't officially provide an https download location [1]. There is one but it's not reliable, sometimes the connection time out and end-up with a corrupted git repo: fatal: unable to access 'https://sourceware.org/git/glibc.git/': Failed to connect to sourceware.org port 443: Connection timed out So switch to using a git mirror from github which is updated once a day [2]. This allow at the same time to clone the git repository faster. Note: The glibc 2.26 patches are not kept for the arc toolchain since they are fixing an issue with the new float128 support introduced in x86, x86_64 and powerpc64le.
