97651ce275 arch: Add support for Westmere targets
The westmere line of x86_64 targets lies between nehalem (corei7) and
sandybridge (corei7-avx).  Allowing use of -march=westmere enables use of
AES instruction set on these targets.

eda77e17c1 arch/Config.in.powerpc: remove unused gcc target abi options for powerpc
gcc target abi options for powerpc were added by [1] and renamed by [2]
to BR2_PPC_ABI_* but never used. Since always BR2_GCC_TARGET_ABI is empty
when using a powerpc toolchain.

Buildroot currently support SPE and Classic target ABI, nothing seems
to require a specific gcc target abi option.

This patch is a cleanup like commit [3].

a9b722732d arch/csky: specify BR2_GCC_TARGET_FLOAT_ABI
The C-SKY architecture uses two different ABIs, depending on the core
being used:

 - "abiv1" is a mcore based ISA with ELF_NUM:39 and does not support
   FPU & VDSP. It is used only for the ck610 core.

 - "abiv2" is C-SKY's own ISA with ELF_NUM:252 and supports FPU &
   VDSP. It is used for the ck807, ck810, ck860 cores.

Since "abiv1" does not support FPU, BR2_GCC_TARGET_FLOAT_ABI will
always have the value "soft" for the ck610 core.

18b8d360bb arch/mips: add (Marvell) Octeon III processor
The compiler recognizes a specific 'march' value for Octeon III processors,
so create a 'Target Architecture Variant' entry for it in the target menu.

Note: support for '-march=octeon3' was added in gcc 5.x. However, the
official compiler provided by Marvell (Cavium Networks) uses gcc 4.7.x (and
supports -march=octeon3 via their own modifications). For this reason, no
line 'select BR2_ARCH_NEEDS_GCC_AT_LEAST_5' is added.

ae99fa6d64 arch: add support for RISC-V 32-bit (riscv32) architecture
This enables a riscv32 system to be built with a Buildroot generated
toolchain (gcc >= 7.x, binutils >= 2.30, glibc only).

This requires a custom version of glibc 2.26 from the riscv-glibc
repository. Note that there are no tags in this repository, so the
glibc version just consists of the 40 character commit id string.

Thanks to Fabrice Bellard for pointing me towards the 32-bit glibc
repository and for providing the necessary patch to get it to build.

354781dd96 arch/arm: add an armv8.3a core
The armv8.3a generation is a cumulative extension to armv8.2a.

Since gcc correctly enables the appropriate extensions based on the core
name, we don't really need to introduce a separate config for armv8.3a,
and we can piggyback on armv8a.

This new core is AArch64 only.

56a315f18f arch/arm: add armv8.2a cortex-based cores
The armv8.2a generation is a cumulative extension to armv8.1a.

Since gcc correctly enables the appropriate extensions based on the core
name, we don't really need to introduce a separate config for armv8.2a,
and we can piggyback on armv8a.

In theory, gcc supports those cores in arm mode. However, configuring
gcc thusly generates a non-working gcc that constantly whines:
    cc1: warning: switch -mcpu=cortex-a55 conflicts with -march=armv8.2-a switch

It is to be noted that the -march flag is internal to gcc. It is not
something that Buildroot did set when configuring gcc; Buildroot only
ever sets --with-cpu (not --with-arch).

Additionally, uClibc fails to build entirely (unsure if this is caused
by the above, or if it is a separate issue, though), with:
    #### Your compiler does not support TLS and you are trying to build uClibc-ng
    #### with NPTL support. Upgrade your binutils and gcc to versions which
    #### support TLS for your architecture. Do not contact uClibc-ng maintainers
    #### about this problem.

Glibc and musl have not been tested in arm mode, so maybe we could have
a toolchain that eventually works (or at least, pretends to be working),
but we decided it was not worth the effort.

Thus, we restrict those cores to AArch64 mode only.

7f7701301e arch/arm: introduce generic FPU internal option
Currently, we consider that any VFP FPU is a superset of VFPv2, and thus
we use VFPv2 as a way to detect that a VFP is used.

However, for Cortex-M cores, the optional FPU is not a superset of
VFPv2; it is even not a VFP [0].

As a consequence, we can no longer consider VFPv2 as a indication that
an FPU is present.

So, we introduce two new internal options, BR2_ARM_CPU_MAYBE_HAS_FPU and
BR2_ARM_CPU_HAS_FPU, which we use to consider the presence of an FPU.

6317a199ec arch/arm: add armv8.1a cores
The armv8.1a generation is a cumulative extension to armv8a. It adds new
extensions, and makes some previously optional ones now mandatory.

Since gcc correctly enables the appropriate extensions based on the core
name, we don't really need to introduce a separate config for armv8.1a,
and we can piggyback on armv8a.

All those new cores are aarch64 only (gcc fails to build in arm mode).

d632d9e5a9 arch/arm: add some non-cortex armv8a cores
Some need gcc-5, some gcc-6 and some gcc-7.

The thunderx familly does not build in 32-bit mode (gcc complains
that the CPU is unknown, and even gcc master only knows them as
aarch64-only).

ffc9d60243 arch/arm: add cortex-A32
The cortex-A32 is an armv8a core, but it lacks the optional AArch64
extensions, so can only work in 32-bit mode.

003b1f3c74 arch/arm: armv8 is really armv8a
For armv8, there are different profiles: A, M and R, like there is for
armv7.

So, rename our internal symbol to mirror what we do for armv7.

a9f95de2c0 arch/arm: simplify hiding non 64-bit cores
Now that the cores are all oredered correctly, we can just enclose all
the non 64-bit cores inside a big if-block, rather than have each of
them have the dependency.

52d500aa35 arch/arm: re-order cores choice
Currently, the logic for ordering the ARM cores in the choice is all
but obvious. ;-)

Reorder the choice by architecture generation, starting with armv4,
ending with armv8.

Add a comment before each generation, just for ease of use. Add a
separate comment for armv7a and armv7m.

Finally, order cores alphabetically inside the same generation (except
for armv7m cores, listed after all armv7a cores).

e25d704e10 arch/mips: inverse the mfpxx logic
Currently, the possibility to choose the floating point mode (32, xx or
64) is conditional on having a sufficiently recent gcc version.

Which means that the architecture selection depends on the gcc version.

But that's opposite to what we've always done in Buildroot: the software
versions are conditional to the architecture options. There is nothing
we can do about the hardware: it is there, we can't change it, while we
can restrict ourselves to using software that is working on said
hardware.

Thus, we inverse the logic, to move the condition onto the software
side: whenever mfpxx is selected, we restrict the toolchain selection to
at least a gcc-5.

And now, the blind BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_MFPXX_OPTION symbol is no longer
needed, so we get rid of it.

31b134a645 arch/mips: inverse the NaN logic
Currently the possibility to choose the NaN encoding is conditional to
having a sufficiently recent gcc version.

Which means that the architecture selection depends on the gcc version.

But that's opposite to what we've always done in Buildroot: the software
versions are conditional to the architecture options. There is nothing
we can do about the hardware: it is there, we can't change it, while we
can restrict ourselves to using software that is working on said
hardware.

Thus, we inverse the logic, to move the condition onto the software
side: whenever NaN-2008 are selected, we restrict the toolchain
selection to at least a gcc-4.9.

But now, the option with the NaN type is always set, so we must enclose
the code in gcc.mk inside a HAS_NAN_OPTION condition, as is already done
for the external toolchain case.
