6db46a6785 arch/Config.in: allow building a buildroot toolchain on SPARC
With this patch series we again allow building a Buildroot toolchain
for SPARC, because SPARC was fixed in uClibc-ng, so SPARC systems
work fine now.

eab17d763c arch/Config.in: introduce BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14
Since commit
a0d2a5cfec ("support/scripts/gen-bootlin-toolchains:
generate BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_X guard"), the
gen-bootlin-toolchains script will generate references to
BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_X including potentially against the "next"
version of gcc.

Indeed, a toolchain using gcc 13.x should have a "depends on
!BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14" so that once some architectures that
require gcc 14.x are added, such toolchains are not made visible.

In order for this to work, we must have the
BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_x symbol ready for the N+1 version of gcc
compared to the latest one we support.

As we're supporting up to gcc 13.x right now, let's introduce the
symbol BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14 so that gcc 13.x toolchains can
be marked depends on !BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14.

The other alternative would be to make the gen-bootlin-toolchains a
bit smarter, and not emit this depends on
!BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14 if BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14 does
not exist. But this would require re-running the script when
BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14 which we are unlikely to do. While
today, when the script is invoked, the usual check-symbols complains
and reminds us that BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_14 should be added, so
we remember to do it right away.

01849e8ddb arch/sparc: disable internal toolchain backend for sparc
Since gcc 11 [1] the sparc architecture is disabled since
it produce a non working image. Buildroot now provide gcc
13.x, 12.x and 11.x and we are going to remove gcc 10
that was the last working release (thanks to a local patch).

We have to disable the internal toolchain backend for sparc
before removing gcc 10. While at it, remove !BR2_sparc
dependency for gcc 11.x, 12.x and 13.x.

874916567a arch: rework MMU option handling and move to "Target architecture" menu
The MMU option is currently located in the "Toolchain" menu, but it
doesn't make sense as it's really architecture related. In addition,
the selection of MMU has an impact on the choice of binary format
available, which is visible in the architecture menu.

Therefore, this commit moves the MMU option into the architecture
menu.

However, if we simply move it in arch/Config.in, it means that we
would have the following order of options:

 Target architecture
 Target architecture variant
 ABI
 MMU
 Binary format

But really, the MMU option should be right below the Target
architecture variant, and the available ABIs derived from that.

The variant and ABI are arch-specfic, and defined in the per-arch
Config.in fragments; a Kconfig option can have only one prompt defined,
even under conditions, and appears at the place in the menu where its
prompt was defined. So, there is no (easy) possibility to have a
generic option appear where we want it.

Since in fact only 2 architectures show a visible prompt for the MMU
option (RISC-V and Xtensa), we move this option in
arch/Config.in.riscv and arch/Config.in.xtensa.

Some walkthrough the commit:

 - BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY and BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL are
   removed as they are no longer needed

 - BR2_USE_MMU becomes a hidden boolean

 - All the places where we used to select BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY
   now select BR2_USE_MMU directly.

 - Introduce BR2_RISCV_USE_MMU and BR2_XTENSA_USE_MMU.

 - All defconfigs that used "# BR2_USE_MMU is not set" are switched to
   using the new option.

All in all, this simplifies things quite a bit, and allows to have a
good option ordering in the Target architecture menu.

This commit might raise a concern in terms of backward compatibility
with existing configurations. The only configurations that will be
broken by this change are RISC-V noMMU (which was very recently
introduced) and Xtensa noMMU (which we can probably agree is not such
a widely popular configuration).

ca881f183d arch/Config.in: BR2_BINFMT_FLAT remove architecture dependencies
The commit [1] removed the Config.in.host file and moved the arm, sh,
sparc, xtensa and riscv-64 architectures dependencies.  But this list
doesn't contain all elf2flt supported architectures and this breaks
the host-gcc-initial build for m68k.

Since BR2_BINFMT_FLAT is only available on no MMU case, we can rely on
BR2_USE_MMU option and remove the architecture list.

Note: SH without MMU support has been removed by [2], sparc requires
an MMU since at least [3].

9db5eb258c package/elf2flt: Remove Config.in.host
There is no need to have configuration files direbtly set the
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_ELF2FLT option. The need for the elf2flt utility is
automatically determined by gcc build in package/gcc/gcc.mk according to
the BR2_BINFMT_FLAT option.

Accordingly, we can remove the file package/elf2flt/Config.in.host to
get rid of the BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_ELF2FLT option. BR2_STRIP_strip
dependency on this option is replaced with a dependency on
BR2_BINFMT_ELF.

To stay consistent with the fact that elf2flt supports only the arm, sh,
sparc, xtensa and riscv-64 architectures, a dependency on these
architectures is added to the BR2_BINFMT_FLAT option in arch/Config.in.

Board configuration files setting the BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_ELF2FLT option
are also updated.

793ee1011e Remove support for the NDS32 architecture
The support for this architecture has been removed from the upstream
Linux kernel, as of commit:

  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=aec499c75cf8e0b599be4d559e6922b613085f8f

Which states:

  The nds32 architecture, also known as AndeStar V3, is a custom
  32-bit RISC target designed by Andes Technologies. Support was added
  to the kernel in 2016 as the replacement RISC-V based V5 processors
  were already announced, and maintained by (current or former) Andes
  employees.

  As explained by Alan Kao, new customers are now all using RISC-V,
  and all known nds32 users are already on longterm stable kernels
  provided by Andes, with no development work going into mainline
  support any more.

There has also been little to no maintenance done in Buildroot for
this architecture in recent times, so let's follow the Linux kernel
community decision and drop support for this CPU architecture.

42a3300ae5 arch/Config.in: remove BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY from BR2_aarch64*
Selecting BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY from BR2_aarch64 and
BR2_aarch64_be doesn't make much sense, because the actual ARM cores
described in arch/Config.in.arm then all select
BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL. So we end up with both
BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL and BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY, which
doesn't make any sense.

To prevent this, we remove the selection of BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY
from BR2_aarch64 and BR2_aarch64_be, and let arch/Config.in.arm do its
job. What arch/Config.in.arm does is currently incorrect, but it will
be fixed in a separate commit.

aa8a2dacf2 arch/Config.in.sh: fixup MMU selection
BR2_sh selects BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_OPTIONAL, which means that it's up to
the user to decide whether he wants to use MMU or not on SuperH
platforms.

However:

 - On SH2A, there is no MMU at all, so being to select "Use MMU"
   doesn't make any sense.

 - On SH4, there is no support for *not* using the MMU, so disabling
   "Use MMU" will cause the build to fail.

In order to fix this, we move the MMU selection to arch/Config.in.sh:

 - BR2_sh2a selects nothing, so that it's always noMMU

 - BR2_sh4* select BR2_ARCH_HAS_MMU_MANDATORY so that the MMU is
   always used.

dd8a410eaf core: introduce NORMALIZED_ARCH as non-kernel replacement for KERNEL_ARCH
The variable 'KERNEL_ARCH' is actually a normalized version of
'ARCH'/'BR2_ARCH'. For example, 'arcle' and 'arceb' both become 'arc', just
as all powerpc variants become 'powerpc'.

It is presumably called 'KERNEL_ARCH' because the Linux kernel is typically
the first place where support for a new architecture is added, and thus is
the entity that defines the normalized name.

However, the term 'KERNEL_ARCH' can also be interpreted as 'the architecture
used by the kernel', which need not be exactly the same as 'the normalized
name for a certain arch'. In particular, for cases where a 64-bit
architecture is running a 64-bit kernel but 32-bit userspace. Examples
include:
    * aarch64 architecture, with aarch64 kernel and 32-bit (ARM) userspace
    * x86_64 architecture, with x86_64 kernel and 32-bit (i386) userspace

In such cases, the 'architecture used by the kernel' needs to refer to the
64-bit name (aarch64, x86_64), whereas all userspace applications need to
refer the, potentially normalized, 32-bit name.

This means that there need to be two different variables:

KERNEL_ARCH:     the architecture used by the kernel
NORMALIZED_ARCH: the normalized name for the current userspace architecture

At this moment, both will actually have the same content. But a subsequent
patch will add basic support for situations described above, in which
KERNEL_ARCH may become overwritten to the 64-bit architecture, while
NORMALIZED_ARCH needs to remain the same (32-bit) case.

This commit replaces use of KERNEL_ARCH where actually the userspace arch is
needed.  Places that use KERNEL_ARCH in combination with building of kernel
modules are not touched.
There may be cases where a package builds both a kernel module as userspace,
in which case it may need to know about both KERNEL_ARCH and
NORMALIZED_ARCH, for the case where they differ. But this is to be fixed on
a per-need basis.

gcc 10 [3] and csky860 will be supported by gcc 12 [4]. There is
no info about the csky610. Although the csky architecture is
supported since gcc 10, the support was not enabled in Buildroot.

To simplify things, we make the whole C-SKY architecture require gcc-9

the C-SKY port.

Note that this does not change the default gcc version to be used for
C-SKY: the C-SKY port is still always the default one; the gcc-9 version
is only proposed as an alternative (except for ck610, of course).

toolchain (gcc >= 7.x, binutils >= 2.30, glibc only).

This configuration has been used to successfully build a qemu-bootable
riscv-linux-4.15 kernel (https://github.com/riscv/riscv-linux.git).

58dcd28dfb arch: drop now useless support for FDPIC
Now that we dropped support for blackfin, we no longer have any
architecture that supports FDPIC, so BR2_ARCH_HAS_FDPIC_SUPPORT
is never selected, so we can't select BR2_BINFMT_FDPIC.

Drop all of that now.

325bb37942 arch: remove Blackfin architecture
The Blackfin architecture has for a long time been complicated to
maintain, with poor support in upstream binutils/gcc. As of April
2018, the Blackfin architecture has been dropped from the upstream
Linux kernel. Also, the Analog Device engineer who used to be in touch
with the Buildroot community also privately said we should drop the
support for this architecture, which Analog Devices is no longer
using, promoting and maintaining.

The BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA option becomes unselectable, it will be
removed in a future commit.

974d97bc26 arch: introduce minimal required gcc version
Some CPU variants require that a recent-enough gcc be selected. For
example, ARM's cortex-a35 requires gcc-5, while cortex-a73 requires
gcc-7. Same goes for other architectures, of course.

Currently, we hard-code every such conditions in the gcc version choice,
as well as in the individual external toolchains.

However, as we add even more CPU variants, the conditions are getting
more and more complex to write and maintain.

Introduce new symbols, that architectures can select if they have a
specific requirement on the gcc version. gcc and external toolchains
can then properly depend on those symbols.

The burden of maintaining the requirements on the gcc version now falls
down to the architeture, instead of being split up in gcc and all the
external toolchains.

As the oldest gcc version to handle, we can either choose gcc-4.9, as
the oldest version we support in our internal toolchain, or choose
gcc-4.8, as the oldest external toolchain we support (except for the
custom ones, but they'll be handled specifically in upcoming changes).
We choose to go back up to gcc-4.8.

31a726122f arch: add option to disable internal toolchain backend
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.

9a0a0a976b arch/mips: add support for MIPS32 FP mode
MIPS32 support different FP modes (32,xx,64), so give the user the
opportunity to choose between them. That will cause host-gcc to be built
using the --with-fp-32=[32|xx|64] configure option. Also the
-mfp[32|xx|64] gcc option will be added to TARGET_CFLAGS and to the
toolchain wrapper.

FP mode option shouldn't be used for soft-float, so we add logic in the
toolchain wrapper if -msoft-float is among the arguments in order to not
append the -fp[[32|xx|64] option, otherwise the compilation may fail.

Information about FP modes here:

2d8f3fc430 arch/mips: add support for MIPS NaN
MIPS supports two different NaN encodings, legacy and 2008. Information
about MIPS NaN encodings can be found here:

  https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/MIPS-NaN-Encodings.html

NaN legacy is the only option available for R2 cores and older.
NaN 2008 is the only option available for R6 cores.
R5 cores can have either NaN legacy or NaN 2008, depending on the
implementation. So, if the user selects a generic R5 target architecture
variant, we show a choice menu with both options available. For well
known R5 cores we directly select the NaN enconding they use.

Add support for OpenRISC. See here for more details about
OpenRISC http://openrisc.io.

All buildroot included upstream binutils versions are supported.
Gcc support is not upstream, to be able to enable musl C library
support later, we use the branch with musl support.
At the moment it is possible to build a musl based toolchain,
but bootup in Qemu fails.

Gdb is only working to debug bare-metal code, there is no support
for gdbserver/gdb on Linux, yet.

8b7d8b4a4e arch: merge Config.in.aarch64 into Config.in.arm
The 64 bits ARM processors are capable of running 32 bits ARM code, and
some platforms are indeed using this capability. Due to this, if we were
to keep the separation between Config.in.aarch64 and Config.in.arm, we
would have to duplicate the definition of all 64-bits capable ARM cores
into both files.

Instead of going down this route, let's take the same route as the x86
one: a single Config.in.x86 file, used for both x86 32 bits and x86 64
bits, with the appropriate logic to only show the relevant cores
depending on which architecture is selected.

In order to do this, we:

 - Make the "ARM instruction set" choice only visible on ARM 32 bits,
   since we currently don't support ARM vs. Thumb on AArch64.

 - Add the relevant values for the BR2_ARCH option.

 - Add the relevant values for the BR2_ENDIAN option.

 - Make the "aapcs-linux" BR2_GCC_TARGET_ABI value only used on ARM 32
   bits, since this ABI doesn't mean anything on AArch64.

 - Make the BR2_GCC_TARGET_FPU option depends on ARM 32 bits, since
   there is no -mfpu option on AArch64.

446177237c m68k: disable BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA for coldfire
BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA can be used to create XIP userland and works fine
for m68k. Unfortunately a lot of basic packages as pcre are not compileable
because of a CPU or hardware limitation. The reason for failing are very
big functions used in the libraries or application code.

Typical errors are:

Fatal error: Tried to convert PC relative branch to absolute jump
or
error: value -yyyyy out of range

Add kernel patch from 4ec5542679 to make
BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_ONE compiled firmware work fine.

49d97993d8 arch: define dependencies for the binfmt flat formats
The situation looks like following for elf2flt and binfmt FLAT:

 * Only gcc for bfin/m68k implements
   -msep-data (BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SEP_DATA) and
   -mid-shared-library (BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_SHARED), so the corresponding
   options are made only visible on those architectures.

 * When the default of BR2_BINFMT_FLAT_ONE is used on m68k, broken
   binaries are produced, which mainly end up in SIGILL, so do not use
   it for m68k.
