This update contains a lot of important fixes, e.g. it fixes:
http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/4c7/4c77f33c842b37bf28cb931edf1b290e1bf4d93c//http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/902/902729a0b98675ad803939e3ecdcf230065a6012//
and other failures.
Other important change is that we also update gdb. Now we are
using gdb 7.12.
This version of gdb requires C++ toolchain support so we add
corresponding dependency to gdb Config.in file.

this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools.
This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng015.
This tag introduces following changes:
1. binutils: Rebase onto upstream master.
2. gcc: Fix devdf3 emulation for arcem, disable TP register when
building for bare metal.
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

this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools.
This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng008.
Main updates were made for gcc. It was switched to GCC 6 and to
OSABI v4.
Besides this patch fixes buildroot ARC failures connected to
"crtbeginT.o" object file missing. This issue lead to two main errors:
1) "crtbeginT.o: No such file or directory", e. g. bootutils-1.0.0.
No comments are required here I hope.
2) Errors like "compiler cannot create executables", e.g.:
a) host-gcc-final-arc-2016.09-eng007 static build,
b) aespipe-2.4c.
That was caused because the test to determine if compiler is able to
create executables was failing due to missing "crtbeginT.o" file.
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.

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//

With this commit we're starting a series of updates of ARC tools.
Significantly rewritten arc-2016.03 tools introduced way too many
problems highlighted by Buildroot autobuilder. Now in attempt to
resolve as many issues as possible by the time final release of
arc-2016.09 tools is cut we'll be executing arc-2016.09 series
with engineering snapshots like this one.
We decided to go this way instead of applying separate patches here
and there because ongoing development introduces quite a lot of
changes and separate patches are not practical in Buildroot.
Moreover this will give us very clean visibility of number of
issues we see (hopefully it will decrease over time).
One of the important changes introduced in this engineering build
is initial set of changes for proper support of PIE on ARC in terms
of both building on host and running on ARC target. I expect some
PIE-related build breakages to go away and new ones will be treated
as the high-priority issues to be fixed ASAP.
For now we only update Binutils and GCC while keeping 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 one of the first engineering builds of
arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages,
please don't use it for production builds.

changes like:
* Binutils v2.26+ (upstream commit id 202ac19 with additional ARC

Also in this change we realign custom Buildroot patches for binutils and
gcc for ARC tools. Looks like earlier most of arch-independent patches
for binutils and gcc were either unintentionally removed or not even
added in patch folders for ARC's binutils and gcc. Now arch-independent
patches for binutils-2.26 and gcc-4.8.5 were added in
package/{binutils|gcc}/arc-2016.03-rc2 folders.

- Rebase patches from 2.25 on top of 2.26.
- Use git format for patches
- remove upstreamed xtensa patches
The first patch [1] is needed to be able to build glibc with binutils 2.26 on nios2.
The second from [2] fix an assertion issue with ld.

Even though this is only RC1 it's been heavily used internally so it should
not be any worse than existing arc-2014.12.
Moreover this relase (and so its RC1) finally delivers support of NPTL
for ARC in uClibc.
That's why it would be good to allow interested users to start trying it
(for example WebKit and apps that use WebKit could be successfully built
and run) also it will be helpful to run that new toolchain through
autobuilder in attempt to find any hidden regressions so we have a solid
toolchain for release.
If there's an interest in that patch more patches will follow with
subsequent RCs and essentially on appearence or relese Buildroot will be
updated with it.
