gdb 8.1 has a new optional dependency on mpfr, which according to the
NEWS file:
GDB now uses the GNU MPFR library, if available, to emulate target
floating-point arithmetic during expression evaluation when the
target uses different floating-point formats than the host. At
least version 3.1 of GNU MPFR is required.
So for the target gdb, this is unnecessary, and therefore we
forcefully disable mpfr support by passing --without-mpfr.
For the host gdb, it would potentially be useful, but since it's a new
feature that isn't essential, we for now keep it disabled as well. An
option may be added later if needed.
To avoid gnulib issues with uClibc/musl, we need to pass additional
configure/make variables, like is done in OpenEmbedded [1].

We re-add the same patches as the ones present for gdb 8.0.1, except
0004-nat-linux-ptrace.c-add-missing-gdb_byte-cast.patch, which was
merged upstream.

The gdb configure script is given --enable-gdbserver when
BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_SERVER is set, but it is not given --disable-gdbserver
when BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_SERVER is unset.
gdb gdb/configure.ac defaults to enabling gdbserver in "native"
(host=target) cases, which is always the case when buildroot builds a
gdb which runs on the target hardware. The gdbserver will overwrite
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GDB_SERVER_COPY gdbserver, if any.
Fix that by passing --disable-gdbserver when BR2_PACKAGE_GDB_SERVER is
unset.

If one wants to use GDB with python support on the target, you need the support
files installed by GDB. These get usually deleted to save some space, so I just
wrapped the Makefile code deleting them in a conditional block depending on if
python support is active or not.

Microblaze support was never upstreamed in gdb. We currently use a gdb
from the Xilinx Github repository, but this gdb is based on 7.6, and
has never been updated in the last 4 years. There are no other active
branches at https://github.com/Xilinx/gdb/branches.
Xilinx has a slightly newer gdb, based on 7.7, available at
https://github.com/Xilinx/meta-xilinx/tree/master/recipes-microblaze/gdb. However,
it's apparently only available in the form of stack of big patches
(https://github.com/Xilinx/meta-xilinx/tree/master/recipes-microblaze/gdb/files).
Currently, gdb on Microblaze fails to build in various conditions:
* Against glibc, with "error: conflicting types for 'ps_lgetfpregs'"
* Against musl, with "error: unknown type name 'elf_gregset_t'"
While those issues can probably be fixed, the fact that there is no
active upstream significantly reduces the incentive to fix those
problems.
Therefore, let's drop support for gdb on Microblaze entirely.

Both our target and host gdb depend on ncurses (host-ncurses for
host-gdb, of course). However, while for the target we passs
--with-curses, we are not doing this for the host variant. Due to
this, host-gdb default to using the termcap library: if such a library
is available on the build system, it will be used instead of the
host-ncurses we have built. This causes the host gdb binary to depend
on a library that we do not provide in $(HOST_DIR), breaking the
principle of a standalone SDK (which should only depend on the C
library).
To solve this, we simply pass --with-curses in HOST_GDB_CONF_OPTS,
which forces host-gdb to use the host-ncurses library.

currently, specifying a custom Xtrensa core is done with two variables:
- the core name
- the directory containing the overlay tarball
However, the core name only serves to construct the tarball name, and is
not used whatsoever to configure any of the toolchain components
(binutils, gcc or gdb), except through the files that are overlayed in
their respective source trees.
This has two main drawbacks:
- the overlay file must be named after the core,
- the tarball can not be compressed.
Furthermore, it also makes it extremely complex to implement a download
of that tarball.
So, those two variables can be squeezed into a single variable, that is
the complete path of the overlay tarball.
Update the qemu-xtensa defconfig accordingly.
Note: we do not add a legacy entry for BR2_XTENSA_CORE_NAME, since it
was previously a blind option in the last release, and there's been no
release since we removed BR2_XTENSA_CUSTOM_NAME. So, we just update the
legacy comments for BR2_XTENSA_CUSTOM_NAME, since that's all the user
could have seen in any of our releases so far.

Starting with glibc 2.25, the proc_service.h header has been copied
from gdb to glibc so other tools can use it. However, that makes it
necessary to make sure that declaration of prfpregset_t declaration
is consistent between gdb and glibc. In gdb, however, there is a
workaround for a broken prfpregset_t declaration in glibc 2.3 which
uses AC_TRY_RUN to detect if it's needed, which doesn't work in
cross-compilation. So pass the cache option to configure.
It needs to be passed to GDB_CONF_ENV to build gdbserver only but
also to GDB_MAKE_ENV, because otherwise it does not get passed to the
configure script of nested packages while building gdbserver with full
debugger.

gdb arc-2016.09-rc1 is based on upstream 7.12 gdb version where we can
still disable C++ build. For more information take a look at:
https://sourceware.org/gdb/wiki/cxx-conversion
We wanted to build gdb with C++ as it is used as default in 7.12
and is even a mandatory requirement since 2016/09.
But unfortunately we missed one runtime failure that C++ build causes
and so now we have to disable C++ build.
When gdb arc-2016.09-rc1 is built as a C++ application it segfaults at
runtime for ARC.
We are going to fix the issue in 2017.03 ARC toolchain release. and
before this we remove C++ dependency are adding temporary workaround
to prevent runtime segfaults.
The workaround is to disable building gdb as C++ application via
passing --disable-build-with-cxx config option when building gdb for
ARC.

Commit 12306a81f8 (gdb: get rid of host-texinfo dependency) tried to
append MAKEINFO=true to the host/target make install arguments, but as the
default values for these are only added when (host-)autotools-package is

This is how the problem is shown:

one:
/lib64/liblzma.so.5: undefined reference to `clock_gettime@GLIBC_2.17'
As Thomas said in the bug report quoted above, that error is related to
the fact that it find the host's lzma.

The Buildroot coding style defines one space around make assignments and
does not align the assignment symbols.
This patch does a bulk fix of offending packages. The package
infrastructures (or more in general assignments to calculated variable
names, like $(2)_FOO) are not touched.
Alignment of line continuation characters (\) is kept as-is.
The sed command used to do this replacement is:
find * -name "*.mk" | xargs sed -i \
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*$#\1 \2#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\]\+\)$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\s*\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\)\s*$#\1 \2 \3#'
-e 's#^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\)\s*\([?:+]\?=\)\(\s*\\\)#\1 \2\3#'
Brief explanation of this command:
^\([A-Z0-9a-z_]\+\) a regular variable at the beginning of the line
\([?:+]\?=\) any assignment character =, :=, ?=, +=
\([^\\]\+\) any string not containing a line continuation
\([^\\ \t]\+\s*\\\) string, optional whitespace, followed by a
line continuation character
\(\s*\\\) optional whitespace, followed by a line
continuation character
Hence, the first subexpression handles empty assignments, the second
handles regular assignments, the third handles regular assignments with
line continuation, and the fourth empty assignments with line
continuation.
This expression was tested on following test text: (initial tab not
included)
FOO = spaces before
FOO = spaces before and after
FOO = tab before
FOO = tab and spaces before
FOO = tab after
FOO = tab and spaces after
FOO = spaces and tab after
FOO = \
FOO = bar \
FOO = bar space \
FOO = \
GENIMAGE_DEPENDENCIES = host-pkgconf libconfuse
FOO += spaces before
FOO ?= spaces before and after
FOO :=
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
FOO =
$(MAKE1) CROSS_COMPILE=$(TARGET_CROSS) -C
AT91BOOTSTRAP3_DEFCONFIG = \
AXEL_DISABLE_I18N=--i18n=0
After this bulk change, following manual fixups were done:
- fix line continuation alignment in cegui06 and spice (the sed
expression leaves the number of whitespace between the value and line
continuation character intact, but the whitespace before that could have
changed, causing misalignment.
- qt5base was reverted, as this package uses extensive alignment which
actually makes the code more readable.
Finally, the end result was manually reviewed.
