binutils-arc-2016.09-eng008 build fails sometimes.
This happens due to the following issue:
binutils configure script has CC variable that stores compiler for
target and CC_FOR_BUILD variable that stores compiler for host.
WARN_FLAGS are verified by the script to be compatible only with CC
compiler but not with CC_FOR_BUILD compiler. Despite this WARN_FLAGS
are passed to both CC and CC_FOR_BUILD compilers. This leads to
unevident errors when cross-compiling. More information you can find
in the binutils mailing list:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-08/msg00117.html
We are going to write a patch for bunutils that fixes the initial
issue. Current patch contains temporary workaround. It should be
deleted after real fix.

Main updates were made for gcc. It was switched to GCC 6 and to
OSABI v4.
Besides this patch fixes buildroot ARC failures connected to
"crtbeginT.o" object file missing. This issue lead to two main errors:
1) "crtbeginT.o: No such file or directory", e. g. bootutils-1.0.0.
No comments are required here I hope.
2) Errors like "compiler cannot create executables", e.g.:
a) host-gcc-final-arc-2016.09-eng007 static build,
b) aespipe-2.4c.
That was caused because the test to determine if compiler is able to

With this commit we're starting a series of updates of ARC tools.
Significantly rewritten arc-2016.03 tools introduced way too many
problems highlighted by Buildroot autobuilder. Now in attempt to
resolve as many issues as possible by the time final release of
arc-2016.09 tools is cut we'll be executing arc-2016.09 series
with engineering snapshots like this one.
We decided to go this way instead of applying separate patches here
and there because ongoing development introduces quite a lot of
changes and separate patches are not practical in Buildroot.
Moreover this will give us very clean visibility of number of
issues we see (hopefully it will decrease over time).
One of the important changes introduced in this engineering build
is initial set of changes for proper support of PIE on ARC in terms
of both building on host and running on ARC target. I expect some
PIE-related build breakages to go away and new ones will be treated
as the high-priority issues to be fixed ASAP.
For now we only update Binutils and GCC while keeping GDB
as it is of arc-2016.03 release because there're some issues
we'd like to resolve before releasing it to wider audience.
So again note this is one of the first engineering builds of
arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages,
please don't use it for production builds.

Following commit 36555b4c8d ("ARC:
switch to RC1 of upcoming arc-2015.06 tools"), the binutils package
only contains the hash information for the 2015.06-rc1 ARC version of
binutils (which is in fact no hash). However, when an external
toolchain is used, and binutils is built for the target, it's still
the old 2014.11 binutils version that gets used in binutils.mk,
causing a build failure because there is no hash available for this
version.
This commit fixes that by using 2015.06-rc1 as the default binutils
version on ARC, which is used when no host-binutils has been built.

Add a new option BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO that builds gcc and binutils with
LTO support.
Individual packages still have to enable LTO explicitly by passing '-flto' to
GCC, which passes it on to the linker. This option does not add that flag
globally. Some packages detect if the compiler supports LTO and enable the flag
if it does.
To support LTO, ar and ranlib must be called with an argument which triggers the
usage of the LTO plugin. Since GCC doesn't call these tools itself, it instead
provides wrappers for ar and ranlib that pass the LTO arguments. This way
existing Makefiles don't need to be changed for LTO support. However, these
wrappers are called <tuple>-gcc-ar which matches the pattern to link to the
buildroot wrapper in the external toolchain logic. So the external toolchain
logic is updated to provide the correct symlink.
[Thomas:
- Add a separate BR2_BINUTILS_ENABLE_LTO option to enable LTO
support in binutils. This is a blind option, selected by
BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO. It just avoids having binutils.mk poke
directly into gcc Config.in options.
- Remove the check on the AVR32 special gcc version, which we don't
support anymore.
- Adapt the help text of the LTO Config.in option to no longer
mention "Since version 4.5", since we only support gcc >= 4.5 in
Buildroot anyway.
- Fix typo in toolchain-external.mk comment.]

If Binutils and/or GDB are fetched from the unified binutils-gdb
repository, then the tarball will contain both Binutils and GDB
sources, unlike the "normal" tarballs that contain only the titular
package. To keep packages separated in Buildroot we need to disable
undesired components when configuring.
Binutils and GDB migrated to a common Git repository in the October
2013 [1]. Previous Git repositories were incomplete copies of CVS
repository which copied only the relevant files (no binutils files in
GDB, and vice versa). In the new binutils-gdb repository there is no
such separation and a result all files exist in directory after
checkout. So if "configure" and "make" are used without explicit
targets, all projects will be built: binutils, ld, gas, bfd, opcodes,
gdb, etc. In case of Buildroot this would mean that selecting Binutils
only, still will build both Binutils and GDB. And if GDB is selected
as well, then both packages will be built two times, and Binutils from
GDB directory will overwrite initial build of Binutils (or vice versa
if Binutils will be built after the GDB). This is a serious problem,
because binutils and GDB use separate branches in this common
repository. In case of Buildroot this means that separate Git commits
(or tags) should be used when downloading source from Git.
This affects only Git repositories, because GNU release tarballs still
contain only relevant packages.
This change is backward compatible, because if "normal" tarball is
used (without extra directories), than --disable-* configure options
are just ignored by configure.

Upstream binutils 2.24 works fine for microblaze, no need for
Xilinx Git.
[Peter: disable older versions as suggested by Gustavo]

Some packages (actually, just oprofile) need to link against libiberty.
This option just installs libiberty.a so it has no effect on the target,
therefore it's not needed to add a config option for it.
Before binutils-2.24, there was a bug in libiberty/Makefile.in that
caused libiberty to be installed regardless of the
--enable-install-libiberty option. This problem wasn't noticed before
because binutils-2.24 is not selected on any of the autobuilders: the
version can only be selected if an internal toolchain is used, and it
defaults to 2.21.

When the binutils source code is pulled from a Git repository, a
number of generated files are not present, and need to be
re-generated. Those files are generated by flex, bison, and texinfo,
so we need to pull the corresponding dependencies.
Notice that we tried avoiding the texinfo dependency by doing a number
of MAKEINFO tricks, but none of them worked properly, so we've instead
chosen to depend on host-texinfo.

pkg-autotools.mk already handles static/shared linking, so no need to
explictly force it. Worse even, the build fails with BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LINK
as we end up calling libtool with --static when it tries to link the .so,
breaking the build:
../ld: attempted static link of dynamic object
`../opcodes/.libs/libopcodes.so'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
