The Xilinx Microblaze external toolchains that we had support for are
very old, and are causing a huge number of build issues. Thanks to
Spenser Gilliland, we now have support for Microblaze in the internal
toolchain backend, and the autobuilders have been using the internal
toolchain backend since then. Therefore, it's time to deprecate those
old and unusable external toolchains.

In a1d94aaa3a ('toolchain-external: add support for musl C
library'), we made the following change to the SYSROOT_DIR mangling
logic:
- SYSROOT_DIR=`echo $${LIBC_A_LOCATION} | sed -r -e 's:usr/lib(32|64)?/(.*/)?libc\.a::'` ; \
+ SYSROOT_DIR=`echo $${LIBC_A_LOCATION} | sed -r -e 's:(usr/)?lib(32|64)?/(.*/)?libc\.a::'` ; \
This was needed to accomodate for musl based toolchains that don't
have libc.a in usr/lib/..., but directory in lib/... Basically, the
change makes the usr/ at the beginning optional.
However, with the very permissive (.*) matching in the middle of the
path, the change above had an unexpected consequence: any path contain
'/lib' would be truncated before this lib. As an example, Peter
reported that his builds, running from /var/lib/buildbot/ were no
longer working because the SYSROOT_DIR was decided to be /var instead
of something like
/var/lib/buildbot/buildroot/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc/.
So, this commit changes (again!) this regexp by changing (.*) to
([^/]*), the idea being that it will match only *one* path
component. Note that this intermediate (.*) directory was added in
e6e60becb0 ('external-toolchain: add support for Linaro 2012.01') to
accomodate for Linaro toolchains that have a subdirectory in their
sysroot named after the target tuple:
$ ./output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -print-file-name=libc.a
/home/thomas/projets/buildroot/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/../arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.a
In addition to this, this commit also makes sure that the change
making usr/ optional is properly reported on all the instances of this
regular expression.

As Samuel Martin noticed, libthread_db is not only needed when
cross-gdb+gdbserver is used, but also when the native gdb is used on
the target. As a consequence, this patch modifies the glibc package
and the external toolchain logic to ensure that libthread_db is copied
to the target either when the native gdb or gdbserver is enabled, by
relying on the BR2_PACKAGE_GDB option, which is enabled when native
gdb and/or gdbserver are enabled.

Maxime Ripard reported that the Linaro toolchains were not visible
when selecting a Cortex-A, but forgetting to set the EABI to
EABIhf. While this is expected, Buildroot should normally should a
comment in this case. However, the comment is only visible when the
selected ARM architecture is not ARMv7 *and* the EABI is not
EABIhf. Instead, make the comment visible when either the selected
architecture is not ARMv7 *or* when the selected EABI is not EABIhf.

In 11ec38b695 ("toolchain-external: fix Linaro ARM toolchain
support"), we fixed the support for Linaro EABIhf toolchains by adding
a /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf -> /lib symbolic link. This is needed
because the dynamic loader looks for libraries in
/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf rather than the usual /lib, but Buildroot
installs all libraries in /lib.
However, we forgot that the dynamic loader also loads libraries from
/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf rather than /usr/lib, so this patch fixes
that by adding the necessary symbolic link.

The Angstrom toolchains available at
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/toolchains/ are not usable as
external toolchains in Buildroot, because they are not pure toolchains
with just the C library, but instead complete SDKs with many
cross-compiled libraries (Gtk, Qt, glib, neon, sqlite, X.org, and many
more, approximately 200 MB of libraries).
Buildroot cannot use such toolchains, and while this is documented in
our manual, some users still try to do this. Today, one such user came
on the IRC channel, reporting a build problem, which we started
investigating, only to realize after a long time that he was using an
Angstrom toolchain.
To avoid this problem in the future, we explicitly check if the
toolchain is from Angstrom by looking at the vendor part of the tuple
exposed by the toolchain: as soon as it is
<something>-angstrom-<something-else>, we reject the toolchain with an
explanation.

Until now, the copy_toolchain_lib_root function took as argument the
base name of a library (e.g: libm.so), and was assuming that the usual
scheme libm.so.<x> being a symbolic link to the real library was used.
However, with musl based toolchains, the C library is named libc.so
directly, with no symbolic link at all. Therefore, this commit changes
the copy_toolchain_lib_root to move the responsibility of using a
wildcard or not after the library name the caller's responsibility.
So, all the existing LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS values are modified to have a
.* at the end, so that the behavior is effectively unchanged.

The external toolchain code makes the assumption that all C libraries
have a ld*.so, libc.so, libcrypt.so, libdl.so, libgcc_s.so, libm.so,
libnsl.so, libresolv.so, libutil.so, and when thread support is
enabled, libpthread.so, etc.
However, this is not the case with the musl C library, which
integrates all the functionalities in a single libc.so file. In
preparation of the support of the musl library, we make the current
value of LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS conditional to glibc or uClibc.
The addition of additional libraries through
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_LIBS is kept outside the condition, at

In case there are many arguments passed to the tools, the command line
can get very long, and difficult to parse visually.
For example, the Linux kernel passes a lot of arguments to gcc (at least
45, which gives 53 with our hard-coded args). Looking at such a command
line is daunting.
So, add the possibility to print each argument on its own line.
Also, enclose all args between single quotes, so the command line
can be safely copy-pasted without special chars (spaces, $) being
inrerpreted by the shell.

This commit refactors how Stack Smashing Protection support is handled
in Buildroot:
*) It turns the BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_USE_SSP option into an option
that only enables the SSP support in uClibc, when using the internal
toolchain backend.
*) It adds an hidden BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SSP option that gets enabled
when the toolchain has SSP support. Here we have the usual dance:
glibc/eglibc in internal/external backend always select this
option, in the case of uClibc/internal, it gets selected when
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_USE_SSP is enabled, in the case of
uClibc/external, there is a new configuration option that the user
must select (or not) depending on whether the toolchain has SSP
support.
*) It adds a new options BR2_ENABLE_SSP in the "Build options" menu,

The external-toolchain infrastructure creates symbolic links for all
tools in the host directory. However, when buildroot builds its own
version of a cross debugger (BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GDB), and the toolchain
also provides a cross debugger, there would be two symbolic links for
gdb in the host directory, which is confusing.
An example use case is where the external toolchain only provides a
64-bit gdbserver (e.g. Cavium Networks SDK) but the target is completely
32-bit (e.g. n32 ABI). In this case, using gdbserver on target requires
copying a bunch of 64-bit libraries to the target as well, just for gdb.
In this case, one can let buildroot build both gdbserver as cross-gdb
(both in 32-bit).
This patch modifies the symlink creation so that no gdb (or gdbtui)
symlink is created if buildroot is going to build a cross-gdb.

Following the introduction of the support of EABIhf as a second ARM
ABI, it is important to check whether the external toolchain provided
by the user actually uses the ABI that has been selected in the
Buildroot configuration. This commit introduces such a check by
looking at the 'Tag_ABI_VFP_args' tag of the architecture-specific
section of the ELF headers. This assumes that ELF is the binary format
used on ARM, which may not be the case on ARM noMMU systems (they use
the FLAT binary format), but Buildroot doesn't have support for such
systems at the moment.
Also ensure the correct CFLAGS are passed to the cross compiler for the
test, so the correct variant is used in case the toolchain is multilib.

Until now, we were using the default ARM instruction set, as used by
the toolchain: the 32 bits ARM instruction set for the internal
backend, and for external toolchain, whatever default was chosen when
the toolchain was generated.
This commit adds support for the Thumb2 instruction set. To do so, it:
* provides a menuconfig choice between ARM and Thumb2. The choice is
only shown when Thumb2 is supported, i.e on ARMv7-A CPUs.
* passes the --with-mode={arm,thumb} option when building gcc in the
internal backend. This tells the compiler which type of
instructions it should generate.

The introduction of the EABIhf ABI requires a few updates to the
configuration options for external toolchains, in order to ensure that
the user doesn't do any invalid selection. In detail:
* The Linaro ARM toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABIHF, because
that's the ABI they use, and it is incompatible with EABI. The
comment about the availability of Linaro toolchains is updated to
inform users selecting EABI that they should select EABIhf if they
want to see Linaro toolchains.
* The Sourcery CodeBench toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABI,
because that's the ABI they use. A comment is added to inform users
that have selected EABIhf that Sourcery CodeBench are only
available when EABI is used.
* The Arago toolchains now depend on BR2_ARM_EABI, because that's the
ABI they use. The description of the ARMv7 Arago toolchain is also
slightly improved.

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 external toolchain logic checks (and finds) the proper ARCH_LIB_DIR
and forcibly copies it to */lib even if it's in */lib64
This is all well until the check is done for create_lib64_symlinks which
only verifies if ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR/lib64 is a symlink, which in some
toolchain it's a real directory (like sourcery x86_64 2012.09) and thus
doesn't make the symlink in the target.
Fix this by also checking for a real directory.
Easily reproducible by running "make qemu_x86_64_defconfig", switching
to an external toolchain before build, building and then trying to run
the resulting image.

This commit converts gdb to the package infrastructure, and therefore
moves it from toolchain/gdb to package/gdb.
The target package is now visible in "Package selection for the
target" => "Debugging, profiling and benchmark". The main option,
"gdb", forcefully selects the "gdbserver" sub-option by
default. Another sub-option, "full debugger" allows to install the
complete gdb on the target. When this option is enabled, then
"gdbserver" is no longer forcefully selected. This ensures that at
least gdbserver or the full debugger gets built/installed, so that the
package is not a no-op.
The host debugger is still enabled through a configuration option in
"Toolchain". It is now visible regardless of the toolchain type (it
used to be hidden for External Toolchains). The configuration options
relative to the host debugger are now in package/gdb/Config.in.host,
similar to how we have package/binutils/Config.in.host.
Since gdb is now a proper package, it is no longer allowed to 'select
BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG' to ensure thread debugging is available when
needed. Instead, it now 'depends on
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG'. This option, in turn, is selected by
the different toolchain backends when appropriate. The
'BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG_IF_NEEDED' option is removed, since
we no longer need to know when it is allowed to 'select
BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG'. Also, the 'BR2_PTHREADS_DEBUG' option is moved to
appear right below the thread implementation selection (in the case of
the Buildroot toolchain backend).

The existing Microblaze toolchains that we have have the annoying
property of being based on a very old glibc version: 2.3.6. Xilinx
provides newer toolchains with glibc 2.14, generated by Crosstool-NG,
but they are only available as part of a huge Git repository that
contains the gcc, Linux, binutils, glibc sources unpacked (4.4 GB
total), which makes is very unpractical.
I contacted the Xilinx person who did those toolchains, but they
apparently didn't intend to change that anytime soon.
So, we have created a tarball for those toolchains, adding a
README.txt file in the tarball that points back to the original
location that contains the source code for them. Those tarballs are
hosted on sources.buildroot.net.
This commit then adds support for those two new external toolchains,

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.

Linaro has just released a new pre-built toolchain, available as a
tarball, which is a pure toolchain (only the C library is
included). This makes this new Linaro 2012.01 toolchain usable in
Buildroot, so let's integrate the support for it.
In addition to simply adding the new external toolchain at the usual
locations, this patch allows need to adapt a few things to support
Linaro toolchains. Most toolchains store their libraries in the "lib/"
or "usr/lib" directories relative to the toolchain. Buildroot
toolchains on the other hand, store the libraries in the
"usr/<target-name>/lib" directory. And the Linaro toolchain has
choosen to use the "lib/<target-name>" directory. Therefore, this
patch adjust:
* The logic to search a particular library when that library needs to
be copied to the target directory
* The logic to deduce the sysroot directory from the libc.a file
location in the toolchain: removing "(usr/?)lib(64?)" is no longer
sufficient, we need to take into account the "lib/<target-name>/"
case.
Since the Linaro toolchain generates code for Cortex-A processors
only, the selection of this toolchain is limited to Cortex-A8 and
Cortex-A9.

The IA32 Sourcery CodeBench toolchain has a relatively special
structure, with the following multilib variants:
* Intel Pentium 4, 32 bits, the multilib variant is in ./ relative to
the main sysroot, with the libraries in the lib/ directory.
* Intel Xeon Nocona, 64 bits, the multilib variant is in ./ relative
to the main sysroot, with the libraries in the lib64/ directory.
* Intel Atom 32 bits, the multilib variant is in atom/ relative to
the main sysroot, with the libraries in the lib/ directory.
* Intel Core 2 64 bits, the multilib variant is in core2/ relative to
the main sysroot, with the libraries in lib64/ directory.
So the first two variants are in the same sysroot, only the name of
the directory for the libraries is different.
Therefore, we introduce a new ARCH_LIB_DIR variable, which contains
either 'lib' or 'lib64'. This variable is defined according to the
location of the libc.a file for the selected multilib variant, and is
then used when copying the libraries to the target and to the staging
directory.
In addition to this, we no longer use the -print-multi-directory to
get the ARCH_SUBDIR, since in the case of the 64 bits variants of this
toolchain, it returns just '64' and not a real path. Instead, we
simply compute the difference between the arch-specific sysroot and
the main sysroot.
We also take that opportunity to expand the documentation on the
meaning of the different variables.

toolchain without pthread debugging support is used.
Fix it by introducing 2 more hidden config options:
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_DEBUG_IF_NEEDED
The first tells us if the toolchain HAS pthreads debugging support,
and is checked by check_uclibc_feature in helper.mk for external uClibc
based toolchains.
The second tells us if the toolchain is ABLE TO provide pthreads debugging
support if threads are enabled, either because it's an internal toolchain
where we can force enable it or an external glibc/eglibc toolchain or
uClibc with the option enabled.
Crosstool-ng forcibly enables this support, so those will always work.
The preconfigured uClibc-based toolchains we have also all enable it.
Finally, show a comment if this isn't the case so the (external toolchain)
user knows why. This is placed outside the choice option, as menuconfig
has a bug where it doesn't show choice selections which only contain
comments.

Some CodeSourcery toolchains contain a huge number of locales that are
not useful, even though they account for 70-80% of the total toolchain
size. By skipping the extraction of those useless locales, we make the
toolchain extraction process slightly faster, and also make the output
directory size a lot smaller (host/opt/ is 213 MB instead of 1.5 GB
with a 2010.09 ARM CodeSourcery toolchain).

The recent commit adding the external toolchain wrapper has broken the
support for external toolchain. The check_arm_eabi, check_cplusplus
and check_cross_compiler_exists functions were using TARGET_CC, which
points to the toolchain wrapper, but at the moment those functions are
called, the wrapper hasn't been generated yet.
We fix this by passing to these functions the path to the C or C++
compiler they should use for their tests.

Add a simple toolchain wrapper for external toolchains, which forces the
correct sysroot/march/mtune/floating point options needed to use it
with buildroot.
With this in place the external toolchain behaves similar to the internal
ones, and the special handling can be removed. This also means that the
toolchain is usable outside buildroot without having to pass any special
compiler flags.
Also adjust the downloadable external toolchain support to install under
HOST_DIR so it can be used after the temporary build files are removed.

The selection of linuxthreads, linuxthreads old or NPTL doesn't make a
lot of sense for external toolchains. So, instead, we :
* Introduce an hidden BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option, which must be
selected by toolchain specific options when thread support is
available. Package needing to test thread support should use this
option.
* Move the none/linuxthreads/linuxthreads old/NPTL selection to
Buildroot internal toolchain configuration.
* Add an option in external toolchain to tell if thread support is
available or not in the external toolchain. We assume that glibc
without threads is not possible, as Ulrich Drepper said in
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-08/msg00091.html
ffmpeg, dmalloc and openvpn are fixed to use the new
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option. For openvpn, --enable-threads=posix
is no longer used, as the configure script doesn't even understand
this option.

Instead of having BR2_GCC_CROSS_CXX and BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP, with
BR2_GCC_CROSS_CXX not being visible (and therefore being useless),
let's just keep BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP to enable C++ in the toolchain
and install C++ libraries on the target.
We also take that opportunity to make BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP an hidden
option, which is selected by an option in Buildroot toolchain support
or an option in External toolchain support, just as we did for other
toolchain features.
Some work definitely remains to be done :
- The name BR2_INSTALL_LIBSTDCPP is ugly, but we keep it for the
moment in order to avoid changing all packages.
- We should clarify the other language-related options (Fortran,
Java, Objective-C, etc.).

Instead of letting the user define all the details of his external
toolchain, we define a set of profiles for well-known external
toolchains (CodeSourcery ones only at the moment, can easily be
extended with other toolchains).
Once a profile has been choosen, the user is offered the choice of
either letting Buildroot download and install the external toolchain,
or (as before) to tell Buildroot where the toolchain is installed on
the system.
We of course provide a "custom profile", through which the user can
configure Buildroot to use a custom external toolchain for which no
profile is available.

Turn BR2_LARGEFILE, BR2_INET_IPV6, BR2_INET_RPC, BR2_USE_WCHAR,
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE and BR2_PROGRAM_INVOCATION into hidden options.
Then, for Buildroot toolchains, external toolchains and Crosstool-NG
toolchains, provide visible options that selects the hidden options.
This allows :
* To show a different label and help text in the case of Buildroot
toolchain (do you want to enable feature X ?) and in the case of
external toolchain (is feature X available in your toolchain ?)
* To not show any option when a glibc external toolchain is selected
(since glibc is assumed to support all of largefile, IPv6, RPC,
WCHAR, locale and program invocation) and have them all selected in
that case.
There is some amount of duplication between Buildroot toolchain config
options and Crosstool-NG toolchain config options, because kconfig
doesn't allow to source the same Config.in file twice (even if under
mutually exclusive conditions). This duplication is more readable that
the hack that consists in splitting files in multiple pieces.
However, this commit changes the name of the options visible in the
configuration interface, so existing .config files will have to be
updated accordingly.
