Building with -mtune=e6500 led to build failures in glibc (probably in
uclibc as well) because gcc was built for a 32-bit target even though
the target tuple is powerpc64-*. This lead to a mix of 32-bit and
64-bit support and build errors like:
fatal error: gnu/lib-names-32.h: No such file or directory
The root cause is that the configure script is not handling e6500
correctly, because of stupid typo in the condition.

During the gcc-initial build, we already pass
gcc_cv_libc_provides_ssp=yes explicitly when SSP support will be
available in the C library: at this point in time the C library is not
yet built, so gcc cannot detect if it will support SSP or not.
However, it turns out that there are some situations for which it is
also useful to tell gcc explicitly whether the SSP support is
available or not: the gcc logic to decide whether uClibc has SSP
support or not is broken since uClibc-ng bumped the glibc version it
pretends to be.
So, this commit makes sure that we explicitly pass
gcc_cv_libc_provides_ssp both to gcc-initial and gcc-final, and that
we're always passing either 'yes' or 'no'.

If an externally built (non-Buildroot) toolchain also wraps the toolchain
executables, there is a risk that it will also use the '.real' extension.
To minimise this risk, use a more buildroot-specific extension instead:
'.br_real', so we can detect that the external toolchain is built using
Buildroot and get to the raw toolchain binaries.

When building in a different output directory than the original build,
there will currently be a lot of ccache misses because in many cases
there is some -I/... absolute path in the compilation. Ccache has an
option CCACHE_BASEDIR to substitute absolute paths with relative paths,
so they wil be the same in the hash (and in the output).
Since there are some disadvantages to this path rewriting, it is made
optional as BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR. It defaults to y because the
usefulness of ccache is severely reduced without this option.
In addition to CCACHE_BASEDIR, we also substitute away the occurences
of $(HOST_DIR) in the calculation of the compiler hash. This is done
regardless of the setting of BR2_CCACHE_USE_BASEDIR because it's
quite harmless.

Our current ccache disables hashing of the compiler executable itself,
because using the default 'mtime' doesn't work in buildroot: we always
rebuild the compiler, so the mtime is always different, so the cache
always misses.
However, in the current situation, if a user changes the compiler
configuration (which would result in the compiler generating different
object files than before) and does 'make clean all', ccache may in fact
reuse object files from the previous run. This rarely gives problems,
because
(1) the cache expires quite quickly (it's only 1GB by default),
(2) radically changing compiler options will cause cache misses because
different header files are used,
(3) many compiler changes (e.g. changing -mtune) have little practical
effect because the resulting code is usually still compatible,
(4) we currently don't use CCACHE_BASEDIR, and almost all object files
will contain an absolute path (e.g. in debug info), so when
building in a different directory, most of it will miss,
(5) we do mostly build test, and many of the potential problems only
appear at runtime.
Still, when ccache _does_ use the wrong cached object files, the
effects are really weird and hard to debug. Also, we want reproducible
builds and obviously the above makes builds non-reproducible. So we
have a FAQ entry that warns against using ccache and tells the user to
clear the cache in case of problems.
Now that ccache is called from the toolchain wrapper, it is in fact
possible to at least use the 'mtime' compiler hash for the external
toolchain and for the host-gcc. Indeed, in this case, the compiler
executable comes from a tarball so the mtime will be a good reference
for its state. Therefore, the patch (sed script) that changes the
default from 'mtime' to 'none' is removed.
For the internal toolchain, we can do better by providing a hash of
the relevant toolchain options. We are only interested in things that
affect the compiler itself, because ccache also processes the header
files and it doesn't look at libraries because it doesn't cache the
link step, just compilation. Everything that affects the compiler
itself can nicely be summarised in $(HOST_GCC_FINAL_CONF_OPTS). Of
course, also the compiler source itself is relevant, so the source
tarball and all the patches are included in the hash. For this purpose,
a new HOST_GCC_XTENSA_OVERLAY_TAR is introduced.
The following procedure tests the ccache behaviour:
Use this defconfig:
BR2_arm=y
BR2_CCACHE=y
make
readelf -A output/build/uclibc-1.0.6/libc/signal/signal.os
-> Tag_CPU_name: "ARM926EJ-S"
Now make menuconfig, change variant into BR2_cortex_a9
make clean; make
readelf -A output/build/uclibc-1.0.6/libc/signal/signal.os
-> Tag_CPU_name: "ARM926EJ-S"
should be "Cortex-A9"
After this commit, it is "Cortex-A9".

Now that the calls to gcc always pass through the toolchain wrapper, it
is no longer necessary to patch gcc to support poisoning.
This does have the disadvantage that there is no unsafe path check for

exists). But we can assume that the toolchain components themselves

We have a toolchain wrapper for external toolchain, but it is also
beneficial for internal toolchains, for the following reasons:
1. It can make sure that BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION is passed to the
compiler even if a package's build system doesn't honor CFLAGS.
2. It allows us to do the unsafe path check (i.e. -I/usr/include)
without patching gcc.
3. It makes it simpler to implement building each package with a
separate staging directory (per-package staging).
4. It makes it simpler to implement a compiler hash check for ccache.
The wrapper is reused from the external toolchain. A third CROSS_PATH_
option is added to the wrapper: in this case, the real executable is in
the same directory, with the extension .real.
The creation of the simple symlinks is merged with the creation of the
wrapper symlinks, otherwise part of the -gcc-ar handling logic would
have to be repeated.
The complex case-condition could be refactored with the one for the
external toolchain, but then it becomes even more complex because
they each have special corner cases. For example, the internal
toolchain has to handle *.real to avoid creating an extra indirection
after host-gcc-{final,initial}-rebuild.
Instead of creating the .real files, it would also have been possible
to install the internal toolchain in $(HOST_DIR)/opt, similar to what
we do for the external toolchain. However, then we would also have to
copy things to the sysroot and do more of the magic that the external
toolchain is doing. So keeping it in $(HOST_DIR)/usr/bin is much
simpler.
Note that gcc-initial has to be wrapped as well, because it is used for
building libc and we want to apply the same magic when building libc.

.libs/gload.o: relocation R_MIPS_HI16 against `__gnu_local_gp' can not

The problem is the file 'libatomic/gload.c' is compiled without -fPIC
when using binutils-2.25. All gcc (with libatomic) versions below 4.9.3
are affected by this issue.
Here is a summary of affected/unaffected versions in Buildroot:
4.7.x: unaffected (doesn't have libatomic)
4.8.x: affected
4.9.x: unaffected (we have 4.9.3 which is fixed)
5.1.x: unaffected
The fix can be found here:
57f5c0954f
However, given the following reasons...
- Upstream gcc 4.8 branch is closed.
- The fix is very hard to backport from 4.9 to 4.8.
- This stuff is insanely sensitive and not working at all could be
better than looking like it works but not quite.

Because we have many versions of mentioned packages patches for each
particular version reside in a folder which name matches full version
name of the package.
For example we used to have patches for binutils distributed as part of

bump of ARC tools version we need to rename folder with patches to
"arc-2015.06-rc1".

Even though this is only RC1 it's been heavily used internally so it should
not be any worse than existing arc-2014.12.
Moreover this relase (and so its RC1) finally delivers support of NPTL
for ARC in uClibc.
That's why it would be good to allow interested users to start trying it
(for example WebKit and apps that use WebKit could be successfully built
and run) also it will be helpful to run that new toolchain through
autobuilder in attempt to find any hidden regressions so we have a solid
toolchain for release.
If there's an interest in that patch more patches will follow with
subsequent RCs and essentially on appearence or relese Buildroot will be

* Dropped:
110-pr64896.patch
111-pr65730.patch
* Split in multiple parts:
900-musl-support.patch
The patches from Crosstool-NG for muls support are used instead of
one single patch.
* Renamed:
910-gcc-poison-system-directories.patch to
200-gcc-poison-system-directories.patch
920-libgcc-remove-unistd-header.patch to
201-libgcc-remove-unistd-header.patch
Since the 9xx part of the series is now used by the various musl
related patches.
We have tested the following configurations, with a minimal Busybox
system:
* ARM, uClibc-ng
* ARM, glibc
* ARM, musl
* x86, uClibc-ng and uClibc 0.9.33.2
* x86, glibc
* x86, musl
All of the configurations built fine. All the configurations boot fine
in Qemu, except x86/uClibc (either ng or 0.9.33.2), it segfaults when
running init:
devtmpfs: mounted
Freeing unused kernel memory: 300K (c1389000 - c13d4000)
init[1]: segfault at 0 ip b77708c1 sp bfa9bb0c error 4 in ld-uClibc-0.9.33.2.so[b776c000+6000]
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b
We'll give some time for the uClibc developers to fix the problem
before taking other measures in Buildroot to exclude gcc 5.1 from a
x86/uClibc configuration.
