Since 392b0a26f5 (toolchain-external: default BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PATH
to empty), calling 'make clean' or similar can yield a spurious stderr
message:
dirname: missing operand
Try 'dirname --help' for more information.
Which is definitely baffling and unsettling...
It turns out that it is pretty trivial to reproduce, and this defconfig
is just enough:
$ cat my-defconfig
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
$ make BR2_DEFCONFIG=$(pwd)/my-defconfig defconfig
$ make clean
dirname: missing operand
Try 'dirname --help' for more information.

This is because the cross-compiler is not found in the PATH (and for
good reasons, I don't have it in the PATH, not even at all).
So, when the cross-compiler is not found in the path, we simply
continue as if all was good, and postpone the check to much later,
when we try to copy the toolchain libs...
So, use a make construct rather than calling to the shell: $(dir ...)
does not whine if passed nothing.

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.

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

libgcc_s.so is now added to TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS for glibc/uclibc

in TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS unconditionally.
Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
Currently, for the dynamic loader, we're copying ld*.so* for glibc and
uClibc, except for glibc/EABIhf where we are explicitly copying
ld-linux-armhf.so.*. For musl, we're not copying the dynamic linker
because it's simply a symbolic link to libc.so. However, the name of
the musl dynamic linker changes from one architecture to the other,
and we don't handle all cases.
Since handling the musl dynamic linker symlink creation is becoming
more and more annoying to maintain, this commit makes musl use the
same mechanism as glibc/uClibc: put the dynamic linker in
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS.
In addition, the special condition on glibc/EABIhf was added in
11ec38b695 ("toolchain-external: fix
Linaro ARM toolchain support") because an old Linaro toolchain had two
dynamic loaders, and we wanted to copy only one. But 1/ this is old
and 2/ having the two dynamic linkers doesn't really matter.
So this commit simply unconditionally adds "ld*.so*" to
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LIBS, regardless of the C library being chosen. It
re-uses the musl dynamic linker symlink from the sysroot, which makes
it always correct, and allows us to remove the
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_MUSL_LD_LINK hook, and all the related logic.
This commit therefore solves two problems with the musl dynamic linker
symbolic link creation logic:
1 We support all architectures, without having to hardcode in
Buildroot the mapping between the CPU architecture and the
corresponding dynamic linker name. For example, our current logic
was not handling the mips64+n32 ABI case, where the dynamic linker
is named ld-musl-mipsn32el.so.1.
2 We support Crosstool-NG musl toolchains, where the dynamic linker
is in /lib, but libc.so is in /usr/lib.

This commit therefore replaces:
- https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/780411/ (was another solution
for solving problem 1 above)
- https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/763977/ and
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/748974/ (was another solution
for solving problem 2 above)
We currently use $(HOST_DIR)/usr as the prefix for host packages. That
has a few disadvantages:
- There are some things installed in $(HOST_DIR)/etc and
$(HOST_DIR)/sbin, which is inconsistent.
- To pack a buildroot-built toolchain into a tarball for use as an
external toolchain, you have to pack output/host/usr instead of the
more obvious output/host.
- Because of the above, the internal toolchain wrapper breaks which
forces us to work around it (call the actual toolchain executable
directly). This is OK for us, but when used in another build system,
that's a problem.
- Paths are four characters longer.
To allow us to gradually eliminate $(HOST_DIR)/usr while building
packages, replace it with a symlink to .
The symlinks from $(HOST_DIR)/usr/$(GNU_TARGET_NAME) and
$(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib that were added previously are removed again.
Note that the symlink creation will break when $(HOST_DIR)/usr
already exists as a directory, i.e. when rebuilding in an existing
output directory. This is necessary: if we don't break it now, the
following commits (which remove the usr part from various variables)
_will_ break it.
At the same time as creating this symlink, we have to update the
external toolchain wrapper and the external toolchain symlinks to go
one directory less up. Indeed, $(HOST_DIR) is one level less up than
it was before.

The input to copy_toolchain_lib_root is not one library, not a list of
libraries, but a library name pattern with glob wildcards.
This pattern is then passed to 'find' to get the actual list of libraries
matching the pattern. Reflect this using an appropriate variable name.
Note: if the root of the buildroot tree contains a file matching one of
these library patterns, the copying of libraries from staging to target will
not be correct. It is not impossible to fix that, e.g. using 'set -f', but
maybe it's not worth it.

The toolchain from the Cavium Octeon SDK has a sysroot layout as follows:
./lib32

./lib64
./lib64/octeon2
./lib64-fp
./usr
./usr/lib
./usr/lib32
./usr/lib32/octeon2
./usr/lib32-fp
./usr/lib64
./usr/lib64/octeon2
./usr/lib64-fp
./usr/bin
./usr/bin32
./usr/bin32-fp
./usr/bin64-fp
./usr/libexec
./usr/libexec32
./usr/libexec32-fp
./usr/libexec64-fp
./usr/sbin
./usr/sbin32
./usr/sbin32-fp
./usr/sbin64-fp
./usr/include
./usr/share
./sbin
./sbin32
./sbin32-fp
./sbin64-fp
./etc
./var
with the following selections:
- lib64 : default
- lib64/octeon2 : -march=octeon2
- lib64-fp : -march=octeon3
- lib32 : -mabi=n32
- lib32/octeon2 : -mabi=n32 -march=octeon2
- lib32-fp : -mabi=n32 -march=octeon3
In case of '-mabi=n32 -march=octeon2' (but same is true for n64+octeon2)the
original Buildroot toolchain logic would copy both the libraries in
lib32 as the subdirectory lib32/octeon2, which means that every library is
installed twice (but only one of each is really needed).
While ARCH_LIB_DIR is determined by the location of libc.a, which in this
case is effectively:
<sysroot>/usr/lib32/octeon2/libc.a
the variable only retains 'lib32' and not 'lib32/octeon2' as expected.
To make Buildroot cope with this style of toolchain layout, we need to adapt
the calculation of ARCH_LIB_DIR to also include the second part.
This, in turn, means that ARCH_LIB_DIR is no longer guaranteed to be a
singular path component, resulting in some additional changes.
Certain older Linaro toolchains actually had the same layout. Libraries were
located in lib/<tuple> rather than lib directly. Previously, this was
handled by adding a toolchain-specific fixup that creates a symlink
lib/<tuple> -> lib, but with this patch this would no longer be needed.
Note that one difference with the Octeon case is that these Linaro
toolchains are not actually multilib, i.e. there is just one location with
the libraries and thus there is no problem with duplicated libraries.

Normally, the Buildroot toolchain logic copies all required libraries from
the external toolchain to the staging directory, including the dynamic
loader ld-*.so.
There are cases, however, where the dynamic loader is _not_ automatically
copied to staging. This happens when the dynamic loader is not inside
ARCH_LIB_DIR itself (e.g. lib64), but instead resides in 'lib' (assume, of
course, that ARCH_LIB_DIR != 'lib').
Currently, this is fixed in a toolchain-specific fixup, e.g. by recreating a
missing symlink or copying over a missing file. Such toolchain specific
fixups are not very nice.
Moreover, in a subsequent patch, the value of ARCH_LIB_DIR changes for some
toolchains, causing them to have the same problem of a missing dynamic
loader. This used to be the case for older Linaro toolchains with libraries
in 'lib/<tuple>': Buildroot used to set ARCH_LIB_DIR=lib but the mentioned
patch changes it to 'lib/<tuple>' instead. As a result, the files directly
under 'lib/' will no longer be copied. There should be none, but the dynamic
loader is a notable exception.
[Note: support for these older Linaro toolchain has been removed in 2016.11]
Instead, copy over the ld.so file(s)/link(s) from the extracted toolchain
into staging, in the central copy_toolchain_sysroot function. The existing
toolchain logic will then handle the copy of these files from staging to
target.
This means the toolchain-specific fixups can be removed.
