231ad359bc package/systemd: use host-systemctl preset all to enable units
since v234 upstream recommands using systemctl preset-all to enable units.
* add a buildroot specific preset file
* use that file to disable getty@tty1
* make systemd depend on host-systemd
* remove all link-creating code that systemd does for us.

Most packages will not be affected by this change, but a few packages
were installing units without manually enabling them. Those packages
will now be automatically enabled.

The fact that those packages were not enabled is almost certainly a bug,
but it is a change of behaviour that needs to be reported

host-systemd also builds udevadm for the host. That means we no longer
need to depend on host-eudev to provide udevadm (that would conflict).

4e39730e44 core/legal-info: don't require overriding _LICENSE
Currently, the formatting we impose on the _LICENSE variable requires
that we also use the rarely used := assignment operator, which makes
the _LICENSE variable the only variable that users have to write with
this operator.

This really departs from the simplicity and consistency of using the
append-assignment, which we use for every other variable.

This is because the append-assignment operator surreptiously
introduces a space between the original value and the appended one. But
we can use this knowledge, to match any instance of a space followed by
a comma, and turn it into a single comma.

This allows users to now have a consistent use of the '=' and '+='
operators we use everywhere else in .mk files.

5ee815ab6a docs/manual: bump our gcc/g++ requirements to 4.8
Currently, we only require a gcc 4.4 version, which now is pretty old
(released in April 2009).  This requirement is not even tested nowadays,
with our oldest autobuilder having a 4.7 version only.

And even then, 4.7 is still old enough that it prevents us from
upgrading some packages. For example cmake 3.10+ requires C++11
constructs that were only added in gcc 4.8 (when C++11 support was
finally completed in gcc).

So, update our requirements for gcc to at least 4.8.

9155d1a38d docs/manual: clarify the reinstallation of a package
Since <package>-rebuild implies <package>-reinstall and
<package>-reconfigure implies <package>-rebuild, it is confusing
to mention the make and make <package> commands when describing
the restart of the configuration, compilation and installation of
the package.

Therefore remove the ", followed by +make+ or +make <package>+"
portions in the "8.3. Understanding how to rebuild packages" section,
and add a new paragraph clarifying how to include the rebuilt package
in the filesystem image, if that is necessary.

BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS was introduced, to

(BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_ARCH_SUPPORTS) from the option that target
packages needing Rust should depend on
(BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS).

Since the example in the manual is showing a target package, we must
use BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_RUSTC_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS.

meson does not allow passing path to helper programs (e.g. pkgconfig)
using variables in the environment. Instead, it insists that those paths
be defined in the cross-compilation.conf file, in the [binaries]

As such, allow packages to declare such a list of arbitrary entries to

33c1ef88f8 support/graph-size: add option to sort packages in reverse size order
Currently, the packages are sorted smallest first, and biggest last
(with unknown and others second-to-last and last, resp.).

Add an option to invert the ordering (but keeping unknown and others at
their current positions).

This has the nice side effect that we can now control the colours
assigned to the biggest package(s), as the colours are cycled from the
first to the last. Currently, the biggest packages gets a redish colour,
which is appropriate, but the second gets a greenish one, which is not
as appropriate (but changing that can come later).

1dbce133db support/graph-size: add option to report size with IEC prefixes
When dealing with embedded devices, storage is more often than not some
kind of flash device, on which the memory is usually counted as powers
of 1024 instead of powers of 1000. As such, people may prefer reports
using IEC prefixes [0] instead of the SI prefixes.

Add an option to that effect.

We use argparse's ability to use custom actions [1] [2], to provide a
set of options that act on a boolean, but has a single help entry and
internally ensures consistency of the settings. We could have been using
the more conventional store_true/store_false actions instead, but that
would have meant either two help entries, one for each set of options,
and/or some logic after parse_args() to check the validity of the
settings.

e9cdabee71 support/graph-size: add option to change percentage to group in Others
Currently, we group packages that contribute less then 1%, into the
"Other" category.

However, in some cases, there can be a lot of very comparatively small
packages, and they may not exceed this limit, and so only the "Others"
category would be displayed, which is not nice.

Conversely, if there are a lot of packages, most of which only so
slightly exceeding this limit, then we get all of them in the graph,
which is not nice either.

Add a way for the developers to pass a different cut-off limit. As for
the dependency graph which has BR2_GRAPH_DEPS_OPTS, add the environment
variable BR2_GRAPH_SIZE_OPTS to carry those extra option (in preparation
for more to come, later).

Meson does not allow to pass CFLAGS/LDFLAGS/CXXFLAGS via the environment
or via command-line arguments or options (instead, those flags from the
environment are passed to the host compiler, which is seldom what we
need). The only way to pas those flags is via the cross-compilation.conf
file.

Add LIBFOO_CFLAGS, LIBFOO_LDFLAGS and LIBFOO_CXXFLAGS variables to allow
packages to provide their own flags, possibly overriding the generic
ones entirely, as we allow for other infras. Those per-package flags will
then be used to generate the per-package cross-compilation.conf.

This means that the meson infra is the first and only infra for which
FOO_CFLAGS, FOO_LDFLAGS, and FOO_CXXFLAGS are meaningful, while for the
other infras, they are just variables private to the package itself.
Instead of naming those variables after the meson infra (e.g.
FOO_MESON_CFLAGS), we name them with a generic name, as maybe, just
maybe, we could also change the other infras to also recognise those
variables.

Just like for the HOST_MESON_SED_CFLAGS etc., we need to add auxiliary
variables to do convert the shell-formatted argument list into the
JSON-formatted list that meson expects. We can't use a pure-make
construct because the CFLAGS can contain quoting that needs to be
expanded by the shell. Similarly, we need a condition on the strip'ed
variable to avoid passing empty arguments.

To mimic this feature for packages that are built from the SDK, we also
install a templatised version of cross-compilation.conf, with three new
placeholders for custom flags. If a user wants to build a package that
needs custom flags, they can use that template to generate a per-package
cross-compilation.conf.

8291bc7793 package/go: rename BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_{ARCH_SUPPORTS,CGO_LINKING_SUPPORTS}
The hidden Config.in option BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_ARCH_SUPPORTS name is
not very clear as to whether it says whether Go is available for the
target architecture or the host architecture.

Until now, this was fine since there was support for host Go
packages. But as we are about to introduce support for building host
Go packages, we need to clarify the meaning of
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_ARCH_SUPPORTS. Since it says whether the target
architecture has support for Go or not, we rename it to
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_TARGET_ARCH_SUPPORTS.

And since BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_CGO_LINKING_SUPPORTS is tightly related,
we rename it to BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GO_TARGET_CGO_LINKING_SUPPORTS.

95c063a6f1 docs/website: add page for the Buildroot Association
For about two years, a legal entity called "Buildroot Association" was
created in France to support the Buildroot project. Until fall 2018,
this legal entity has not been used. In fall 2018, we started using it
in order to receive donations from companies in order to organize the
Buildroot Developers Meeting that took place before the Embedded Linux
Conference Europe 2018 in Edinburgh.

This commit creates a new page on our web site that documents the
existence of this Buildroot Association, and details how to become a
member. Both individuals and companies can become members.

It is worth stating that the Buildroot Association does not control
the Buildroot project: it remains a fully open-source and
community-driven project. The Buildroot Association only serves as a
legal entity to handle donations and money needed to organize the
Buildroot Developers Meeting, and pay for a few expenses related to
the project (such as domain names).

efc974e686 skeleton-custom: install /bin, /lib, and /sbin
skeleton-custom does not install the required /bin, /lib and /sbin
directories (or symlinks), which may result in an imcomplete tree, The
user could add the required directories/symlinks to the skeleton but
they may be invalid, depending on the state of BR2_ROOTFS_MERGED_USR.

Steps to reproduce:

- Enable BR2_ROOTFS_MERGED_USR and BR2_INIT_SYSTEMD
- Set BR2_ROOTFS_SKELETON_CUSTOM_PATH to "system/skeleton"
- Run "make skeleton"
- target/{bin.lib,sbin} will not exist

Add calls to SYSTEM_USR_SYMLINKS_OR_DIRS to INSTALL_TARGET_CMDS and
INSTALL_STAGING_CMDS, so the required directories or symlinks are
created.

Add a paragraph to the documentation clarifying that custom skeletons
don't need to contain /bin, /lib or /sbin and must not contain them when
BR2_ROOTFS_MERGED_USR is enabled.
