As of today quite a lot of ARC stuff got merged in upsream
such that we may finally use upstream realease for building
and even running Linux kernel and rootfs built with vanilla
binutils.
Essentially upstream release is still a bit behind our
GitHub-based releases but let's try to use vanilla version
and if we're lucky enough with just a small set of back-ported patches
we'll be able to use vanilla release(s) for everything in Buildroot.

This commit finally bumps ARC tools to the most recent arc-2017.09 release version.
ARC GNU tools of version arc-2017.09 bring some quite significant changes like:
* Binutils v2.29 with additional ARC patches
* GCC 7.1.1 with additional ARC patches
* glibc 2.26 with additional ARC patches

This commit bumps ARC toolchain to arc-2017.09-rc1.
The arc-2017.09 series is built on top of upstream GCC 7.1.1 and
Binutils 2.29 so please expect all kinds of breakages related to GCC
7.x as we saw earlier with the move from 4.8 to 6.x :)
Note patches for both GCC and Binutils were updated with
copies from corresponding mainline versions, i.e.
"package/gcc/7.2.0" and "package/binutils/2.29".
Please note that it is a release candidate and it might contain some
breakages, please don't use it for production builds.

Now that binutils 2.29 has been released, it is time to move to
binutils 2.28.x as the default binutils version, instead of 2.27.
Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
All patches from binutils 2.28 are kept, except patch
0906-microblaze-pr21180.patch, because it has been merged upstream as
of commit bd757ca7bf5886a4025ca02093fca1b8c5ce11a2. Other patches are
slightly adapted to differences that appeared in binutils 2.29.
The patches are now all Git formatted, so instead of having weird
sequence numbers, they have normal sequence numbers starting from 0001
and incrementing.
Since binutils 2.29 is now available as a .tar.xz tarball, we use this
format instead of .bz2 used for previous versions.
Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
binutils 2.28.1 is a bug-fix release of the 2.28.x branch, so let's

Since a xz-compressed tarball is available, we use it instead of the
bz2-compressed one.

It can be interesting to get the overlay from a remote server, rather
than expect it to be present locally.
Since that file can be any URL, we can't know its hash, so we just
exclude it.

[Thomas: use DL_DIR instead of BR2_DL_DIR.]
Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>
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.

This commit switches to use the new gettext logic, which involves:
- using TARGET_NLS_DEPENDENCIES instead of hand-encoded dependencies
on gettext/host-gettext
- using TARGET_NLS_LIBS to force linking against libintl. This wasn't
done so far, but is needed for the build to work, because uClibc
now has a stub gettext implementation, which is mistaken as being
the full gettext implementation by the configure script
- dropping BR2_PACKAGE_GETTEXT selection

binutils 2.27 triggers a segfault in elf2flt on ARM/noMMU. While Arnout
has identified a binutils 2.28 commit that can be backported on 2.27,
this commit is huge and we don't clearly understand the impact.
Since both binutils 2.26 and 2.28 are unaffected by this issue, we
simply disallow the selection of binutils 2.27 on ARM/noMMU, and default
to binutils 2.28.
