elfutils: disable for static builds Even when doing static builds, a shared library is built. This causes a build failure under some circumstances, for instance when building for MIPS + uClibc + static. After asking upstream if it would be possible to add a configure option to not build the shared library, the answer was that doing a static build is not a good idea. Here is a small snippet of the conversation: "Note that fully static builds are problematic. elfutils uses dlopen to open the EBL backends (the CPU-specific support snippets), so even if you link statically, the final binaries are still considerably dynamic."

Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB should really build everything with static libraries. As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly. This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select shared, shared+static or just static. Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.

Introduce BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_{UCLIBC, GLIBC} Currently, when we need to do a conditional on the type of C library used, we need to take into account the three toolchain backends. As we are going to add eglibc support to the Buildroot toolchain backend, it would become even uglier, so this patch introduces two new hidden options: BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_UCLIBC and BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC, that exist regardless of the toolchain backend. The entire Buildroot code base is converted to use those options. Note that we have intentionally created only one option (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_USES_GLIBC) for both glibc and eglibc, since they are essentially the same, as far as Buildroot is concerned.

replacement for libelf).
elfutils: make it possible to only install the libraries Add and use a --{enable,disable}-progs configuration option to selectively enable or disable the elfutils programs. Generally, on an embedded system, the libraries are more useful than the programs, and being able to not build the programs will make it easier to build the elfutils libraries on uClibc.
