When Buildroot is released, it knows up to a certain kernel header
version, and no later. However, it is possible that an external
toolchain will be used, that uses headers newer than the latest version
Buildroot knows about.
This may also happen when testing a development, an rc-class, or a newly
released kernel, either in an external toolchain, or with an internal
toolchain with custom headers (same-as-kernel, custom version, custom
git, custom tarball).
In the current state, Buildroot would refuse to use such toolchains,
because the test is for strict equality.
We'd like to make that situation possible, but we also want the user not
to be lenient at the same time, and select the right headers version
when it is known.
So, we add a new Kconfig blind option that the latest kernel headers
version selects. This options is then used to decide whether we do a
strict or loose check of the kernel headers.

This patch extends the "copy extra GCC libraries to target" feature to
also work for internal toolchains. The variable has been renamed to be
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTRA_LIBS and the configuration option moved under the
generic toolchain package. For external toolchains, the step that does
the copy is still in the copy_toolchain_lib_root() helper which copies
from the sysroot to the target. For the internal toolchain, the host
gcc-final package does a post install hook to copy the libraries from
the toolchain build folders to both the sysroot and target(!static).
Examples where this can be useful is for adding debug libraries to the
target like the GCC libsanitizer (libasan/liblsan/...).

GCC uses thunk functions to adjust the 'this' pointer when calling C++
member functions in classes derived with multiple inheritance.
Generation of thunk functions requires support from the compiler back
end. In the absence of that support target-independent code in the C++
front end is used to generate thunk functions, but it does not support
vararg functions.
Support for this feature is currently missing in or1k and xtensa
toolchains.
Add hidden option BR2_TOOLCHAIN_SUPPORTS_VARIADIC_MI_THUNK that
indicates presence of this feature in the toolchain. Add dependency to
packages that require this feature to be built.

Some architectures or specific cores do not have support in upstream
gcc. Currently, they are individually listed as exclusions in the
toolchain choice.
This poses a maintainance burden, as the knowledge about what gcc
version supports what architecture is split across many places: the
toolchain choice, the gcc version choice, the external toolchains.
As a first step, add a blind option that architectures or individual
cores may select to indicate they lack support in our internal backend.
Actual use of the option will come in followup patches.

As described at:
4520524ba0
this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools.
This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng007 tag plus a
couple of fixes on top of it that will all make its way in the
next engineering build.
We hope this patch will cure most buildroot ARC failures as it
contains important fixes:
1) PIE fix. We have added PIE support to ARC toolchain at last.
So that should prevent breakage of many packages. As ARC now
supports PIE we remove ARC from BR2_TOOLCHAIN_SUPPORTS_PIE
exclusion in toolchain/Config.in file.
2) Assembler fix. This patch also have changes that fixes frequent
assembler failures, e.g.:
http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/543/5430b902d900943a34c1888e7e410bd5df367bc2//
We still keep GDB as it is of arc-2016.03 release because there're some
issues we'd like to resolve before releasing it to wider audience.
So again note this is next engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series
and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for
production builds.

uClibc-ng does not support PIE for some architectures as

With musl toolchains you might have static PIE support with little
patching of gcc. Static linking for GNU libc isn't enabled in
buildroot. Fixup any package using special treatment of PIE.

Don't enable SSP support on external toolchains just because they use

For internal toolchains we always enable SSP support for glibc and musl.
