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.

The current code spawns as many jobs as up to twice the number of CPUs.
On small-class machines like laptops, with a limitted amount of memory,
but still a few CPUs (real or hyperthreads), the HDD becomes a bottleneck,
and it becomes almost impossible to do anythiong else while there is a
build in progress.
Limit the number of jobs to the number of CPUs plus one.
Even on fast machines with fast HDDs, this settings keeps the machine
fully busy (for those packages that can build in parallel, of course).
For example, building qemu or the linux kernel kept my hyperthreaded
hexa Core i7 with 18GiB of RAM, busy at 99% (I never ever managed to
get 100% even with more jobs, not even 200); while on my hyperthreaded
dual Core i5 with only 4GiB and a slow HDD, I still topped at 100% CPU,
while still able to do some work involving the HDD.
If the number of processors is not available, assume one.

The external toolchain wrapper sets sysroot etc. to an absolute path.
By changing this to a relative path, it is possible to move the host
directory to a different location and still have a working build
system.
This only works for a downloaded external toolchain. For a pre-installed
external toolchain, it is possible to move the host directory to a
different location, but not the external toolchain directory (it does work
if the external toolchain directory lies within the host directory). For
an internal or crosstool-ng toolchain, there is no wrapper so updating the
sysroot path should be done in a different way.
See http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2012-February/050371.html

The following changes LDFLAGS from -static to --static if building
with BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB so that various components actually build
statically.
Libtool interpret -static as linking statically with libraries that will not
be installed to the libdir; you have to pass it -all-static to force static
linking. Or, pass --static, which libtool passes on blindly to gcc. gcc
and (GNU) ld both interpret --static the same as -static (although this

Many configure scripts support an option like --disable-doc, --disable-docs
or --disable-documentation. Pass all of these to configure.
In addition, not all Xorg packages accept the --disable-xxx. Instead they
look for xmlto and/or fop and build documentation if they exist. For host
packages, this may lead to build errors because /usr/bin/xmlto uses libxml2
and we set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to $(HOST_DIR)/lib, which may contain
a libxml2 as well. So it's essential to disable xmlto for host packages.

When compiling for the same architecture and libc as the host,
GNU_TARGET_NAME and GNU_HOST_NAME are equal. configure scripts use
these to detect cross-compilation, and will decide that we're doing
native compilation. This may trigger running of executables,
which fail because of missing libraries in the host environment.
To solve this, set the vendor part in GNU_TARGET_NAME to buildroot.
This problem exists for instance in xserver_xorg-server on x86_64.

Practically speaking, MIPS has three useful ABIs:
* o32 is for 32-bits CPUs, or 64-bit CPUs running only a 32-bit subset
of the instruction set.
* n32 is for 64-bits CPUs only. It has 32-bits pointers and long
integers.
* n64 is for 64-bits CPUs only. It has 64-bits pointers and long
integers.
See http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/MIPS_ABI_History and
http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/WhatsWrongWithO32N32N64 for more
details.
So, this commit reworks the Buildroot MIPS support by:
* Add separate mips64/mips64el top-level architectures.
* Renaming the n32 ABI option to BR2_MIPS_NABI32, for consistency
with BR2_MIPS_OABI32.
* Renaming the n64 ABI option to BR2_MIPS_NABI64, for consistency
with BR2_MIPS_OABI32.
* Make the n32 and n64 ABI selections select the BR2_ARCH_IS_64,
since those ABIs are valid on 64-bits CPUs only.
* Removing the o64 ABI, which is practicaly never used.
* Removing the "none" ABI, which really doesn't make sense.
* Introduce the mips64 and mips64el architecture names when a 64-bits
MIPS ABI is choosen. This will fix build issue like
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/9b8c5ea86c953a89e85e7b67e9221de41773f652/build-end.log
where gmp was confused by the fact of having a 32 bits architecture
(detected by the mips- architecture part of the tuple) but 64 bits
integer size when compiling.
* Adjust the uclibc.mk logic to support the new mips64/mips64el
architecture names, and take into account the renaming of the ABI
options.
This has been build tested by generating Buildroot toolchains and
compiling a few packages for MIPS o32, MIPS n32 and MIPS n64.
This work is originally based on prior work done by Gustavo Zacarias.

The -fPIC breaks the purgatory of kexec (= the code that passes command-line
arguments to the kernel): kexec doesn't know how to handle the GOT and PLT
relocation entries.
There is also no reason at all to pass -fPIC. Shared libraries that require
it will add it to their local Makefiles, and normal executables have no
business with -fPIC (plus it adds overhead...).
The -fPIC was added by Bernhard Reutner-Fischer <rep.dot.nop@gmail.com>
in commit 8027784c. That commit adds sysroot parameters to CFLAGS.
There is no explanation why -fPIC is also added for x86_64.

BR2_JLEVEL currently is expanded directly in $(MAKE), and used in

going to allow "0" to be a meaningful value for BR2_JLEVEL, which
won't work for these uses. Given that it is not permissible to modify
BR2_-prefixed variables in Makefiles, we need an intermediate
variable.
Define PARALLEL_JOBS to $(BR2_JLEVEL), and use the former in MAKE's
definition. Uses of BR2_JLEVEL throughout the rest of the tree to be
adjusted similarly in follow-up patches.

For target packages, depending on BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB, add the

--disable-shared.

--enable-shared. We enable static libraries since they can still be
useful to statically link applications against some libraries
(sometimes it is useful for size reasons). Static libraries are
anyway only installed in the STAGING_DIR, so it doesn't increase in
any way the size of the TARGET_DIR.

Unless instructed otherwise (using -L) libtool will search its built in
