Enhance security by enabling FORTIFY_SOURCE, PIC/PIE, RELRO and SSP by
default.
For SSP, SSP-all can have a significant impact on performance, so we do
not want to enable that unconditionally; instead we use SSP-strong if
available (since gcc-4.9), and resort to SSP-regular otherwise. People
who really, like really-really want to use SSP-all will still have to
enable it explicitly.
For FORTIFY, level 2 may change the behaviour of some glibc functions,
so may crash conforming programs, so may have adverse effects. As such,
we choose level 1 as the default, as it does not change the behaviour
of any function.
This could help making IoT more secure and fight against the assumption
that buildroot does not support binary hardening (see
https://cyber-itl.org/2019/08/26/iot-data-writeup.html)

Some packages requires support on the build machine to create gcc
plugins. This commit adds a blind option,
BR2_NEEDS_HOST_GCC_PLUGIN_SUPPORT, which such packages can
select. When this option is enabled, the logic in support/dependencies
verifies that everything needed on the build machine to build gcc
plugins is available.

This commit implements the core of the move to per-package SDK and
target directories. The main idea is that instead of having a global
output/host and output/target in which all packages install files, we
switch to per-package host and target directories, that only contain
their explicit dependencies.
There are two main benefits:
- Packages will now see only the dependencies they explicitly list in
their <pkg>_DEPENDENCIES variable, and the recursive dependencies
thereof.
- We can support top-level parallel build properly, because a package
only "sees" its own host directory and target directory, isolated
from the build of other packages that can happen in parallel.
It works as follows:
- A new output/per-package/ directory is created, which will contain
one sub-directory per package, and inside it, a "host" directory
and a "target" directory:
output/per-package/busybox/target
output/per-package/busybox/host
output/per-package/host-fakeroot/target
output/per-package/host-fakeroot/host
This output/per-package/ directory is PER_PACKAGE_DIR.
- The global TARGET_DIR and HOST_DIR variable now automatically point
to the per-package directory when PKG is defined. So whenever a
package references $(HOST_DIR) or $(TARGET_DIR) in its build
process, it effectively references the per-package host/target
directories. Note that STAGING_DIR is a sub-dir of HOST_DIR, so it
is handled as well.
- Of course, packages have dependencies, so those dependencies must
be installed in the per-package host and target directories. To do
so, we simply rsync (using hard links to save space and time) the
host and target directories of the direct dependencies of the
package to the current package host and target directories.
We only need to take care of direct dependencies (and not
recursively all dependencies), because we accumulate into those
per-package host and target directories the files installed by the
dependencies. Note that this only works because we make the
assumption that one package does *not* overwrite files installed by
another package.
This is done for "extract dependencies" at the beginning of the
extract step, and for "normal dependencies" at the beginning of the
configure step.
This is basically enough to make per-package SDK and target work. The
only gotcha is that at the end of the build, output/target and
output/host are empty, which means that:
- The filesystem image creation code cannot work.
- We don't have a SDK to build code outside of Buildroot.
In order to fix this, this commit extends the target-finalize step so
that it starts by populating output/target and output/host by
rsync-ing into them the target and host directories of all packages
listed in the $(PACKAGES) variable. It is necessary to do this
sequentially in the target-finalize step and not in each
package. Doing it in package installation means that it can be done in
parallel. In that case, there is a chance that two rsyncs are creating
the same hardlink or directory at the same time, which makes one of
them fail.
This change to per-package directories has an impact on the RPATH
built into the host binaries, as those RPATH now point to various
per-package host directories, and no longer to the global host
directory. We do not try to rewrite such RPATHs during the build as
having such RPATHs is perfectly fine, but we still need to handle two
fallouts from this change:
- The check-host-rpath script, which verifies at the end of each
package installation that it has the appropriate RPATH, is modified
to understand that a RPATH to $(PER_PACKAGE_DIR)/<pkg>/host/lib is
a correct RPAT.
- The fix-rpath script, which mungles the RPATH mainly for the SDK
preparation, is modified to rewrite the RPATH to not point to
per-package directories. Indeed the patchelf --make-rpath-relative
call only works if the RPATH points to the ROOTDIR passed as
argument, and this ROOTDIR is the global host directory. Rewriting
the RPATH to not point to per-package host directories prior to
this is an easy solution to this issue.

Currently, the kconfig part contains two things: the kconfig option
with the paths to br2-external trees, and the kconfig menus for the
br2-external trees.
When we want to include more kconfig files from the br2-external tree
(e.g. to get definitions for pre-built toolchains), we will need to
have the paths defined earlier, so they can be used from the br2-external
tree to include files earlier than the existing menus.
Split the generated kconfig file in two: one to define the paths, which
gets included early in our main Config.in, and one to actually define
the existing menus, which still gets included at the same place they
currently are.

In commit 7484c1c3b8 (toolchain/toolchain-wrapper: add BR2_RELRO_),
we added the PIC/PIE flags, but based on the RELRO_FULL condition.
It is however totally possible to do a PIC/PIE executable without
RELRO_FULL, as it is also valid to do a PIC/PIE build with RELRO_PARTIAL.
Add a new option that now governs the PIC/PIE flags.
Note: it is unknown if RELRO_FULL really needs PIC/PIE or not, so we
keep the current situation, where RELRO-FULL forces PIC/PIE compilation.
Decoupling can come later from an interested party.

Currently, use of -fstack-protector-strong is only available for gcc
starting with 4.9, on the assumption that it appeared with that version.
Although this is true, it happens that quite a few vendors will have
back-ported -fstack-protector-strong to older gcc versions (at least 4.8
seen in the wild).
Remove the guard against gcc>=4.9, and expand the help text.
Note: we could have changed the guard to something like:
depends on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_GCC_AT_LEAST_4_9 || BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM
However, the latest gcc we support in the internal toolchain now *is*
gcc-4.9, and similarly all external toolchains except Sourcery ARM are
4.9 or higher. So except for the Sourcery toolchain, the condition would
have always been true. For that one toolchain, we can allow it to hit
the SSP check, and just drop the condition entirely.

Currently, that file is generated rather late in the configuration
process, so BUILD_DIR is known (and exists) by then.
We're soon to generate that file much earlier, at a point where
BUILD_DIR is not yet known, so we have two options:
1- declare BUILD_DIR earlier;
2- generate the file in an already-known location.
We go with the second solution, as we're already generating a
br2-external related file in BASE_DIR, so we can as well generate all
br2-external files in the same place.

Currently, we repeat all the SSP level selection deep down to the
toolchain wrapper itself, where we eventually translate it to the
actual SSP option to use. This is a bit redundant.
Additionally, we will want to check that the toolchain actually
supports that option (for those toolchain where it was backported).
So, move the translation into kconfig, and add the qstrip'ed value
to the additional flags passed to the wrapper. Add it before
user-supplied opitons, to keep the previous behaviour (and allow
anyone crazy-enough to override it with BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION).

if build source archives are cached afterwards for offline builds.

Starting with version 7, gcc automatically recognises and enforces the
environment variable SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, and fakes __DATE__ and __TIME__
accordingly, to produce reproducible builds (at least in regards to date
and time).
However, older gcc versions do not offer this feature.
So, we use our toolchain wrapper to force-feed __DATE__ and __TIME__ as
macros, which will take precedence over those that gcc may compute
itself. We compute them according to the specs:
https://reproducible-builds.org/specs/source-date-epoch/https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/cpp/Standard-Predefined-Macros.html
Since we define macros otherwise internal to gcc, we have to tell it not
to warn about that. The -Wno-builtin-macro-redefined flag was introduced
in gcc-4.4.0. Therefore, we make BR2_REPRODUCIBLE depend on GCC >= 4.4.
gcc-7 will ignore SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH when __DATE__ and __TIME__ are
user-defined. Anyway, this is of no consequence: whether __DATE__ and
__TIME__ or SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH takes precedence, it would yield the
exact same end result since we use the same logic to compute it. Note
that we didn't copy the code for it from gcc so using the same logic
doesn't imply that we're inheriting GPL-3.0.

The BR2_DEPRECATED logic is a lot less useful than the legacy handling,
because the symbols just disappears without warning to the user. For
example, we had a few defconfigs that were using deprecated symbols
(which were not actually used because BR2_DEPRECATED wasn't set) so
these didn't build the expected code anymore.
Also, the idea behind BR2_DEPRECATED is that you can easily revive it
again if there is interest. However, it is relatively easy to revert
the removal of a package as well.
The deprecation is also more effort because it has to be removed twice:
once when deprecating, and once when really removing.
It doesn't make sense to add a legacy entry for BR2_DEPRECATED. Users
who actually used it will get legacy warnings instead.
