We ran into a "Login incorrect" problem when running the same rootfs
image across platforms with different loging ports ttyS0/1/2/3.
Simply assignning "console" to BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT, which in
turn modifies the /etc/inittab, is not enough because the "console" device
was missing in the /etc/securetty.
While current securetty has enumerated a lot of ttys, this patch should save

This reverts commit d66cd067f3.
SSL certificates are no always installed in /etc/ssl/certs. For example, on
CentOS 5.6 the default OpenSSL certificates directory is /etc/pki/tls/certs,
and wget can download using https without any problem.
Moreover, the existence of /etc/ssl/certs does not guarantee the presence of a
CA certificates bundle even on Debian. On my current Debian testing
installation the openssl package itself creates an empty /etc/ssl/certs
directory.

Many users trying to use external toolchains on x86-64 machines get a
very confusing message:
"Can't execute cross-compiler"
They get this message because they forgot to install the 32 bits
compatibility libraries that are needed to run binaries compiled for
x86 on x86-64 machines.
Since this is the case for both external toolchains and certain
binary-only tools like SAM-BA, we add a new Kconfig option
BR2_HOSTARCH_NEEDS_IA32_LIBS, that packages must select if they need
the 32 bits compatibility libraries. When this option is enabled,
dependencies.sh checks that the 32 bits dynamic library loader is
present on the system, and if not, it stops and shows an error.
The path and name of the 32 bits dynamic loader is hardcoded because
it is very unlikely to change, as it would break the ABI for all
binaries.
Also, it is worth noting that the check will be done even if we're
running on a 32 bits machine. This is harmless, as 32 bits machines
necessarily have the 32 bits dynamic loader installed, so the error
will never show up in this case.

Until now, graph-depends was calling "make <pkg>-show-depends"
individually for eack package, which was very slow. Now, it calls
"make <pkg1>-show-depends <pkg2>-show-depends ... <pkgN>-show-depends"
for all packages it knows, and then does that recursively. It reduces
the number of make invocations to the deepest dependency chain in the
current configuration, instead of having a number of make invocations
equal to the number of enabled packages.
For a configuration with xvkbd enabled (which brings a significant
number of X.org dependencies) and a tar root filesystem, the time to
execute graph-depends was:
real 5m14.944s
user 4m53.590s

When doing a full graph of the dependencies, graph-depends starts by
doing a "make show-targets", which lists all the packages registered
in the $(TARGETS) variable. This variable contains all packages that
are enabled according to the .config file. Then, for each of those
packages, we used to create a "all" -> "package" dependency, even if
in fact most of some packages are already dependencies of other
packages. This creates a needlessly complex dependency graph.
This patch modifies graph-depends so that it filters out the unneeded
"all" -> "package" dependencies when "package" is already the
dependency of another package.
For example, if you have a configuration with libpng (which selects
zlib), "make show-targets" displays "libpng zlib", so graph-depends
used to create the following dependencies: (all -> libpng, all ->
zlib, libpng -> zlib). However, the (all -> zlib) dependency is not
really needed, as zlib is already the dependency of libpng. Those
dependencies are now filtered out.

A very common mistake done by our users is that they use
output/target/ directory as their root filesystem. Even though this is
loudly documented in our Buildroot manual, people don't read
documentation, so it is not sufficient.
This patch adds a text file named
output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM which explains why
output/target isn't appropriate to use as the root filesystem. The
process is:
* At the beginning of the build, right after the skeleton has been
copied, support/misc/target-dir-warning.txt is copied to
output/target/THIS_IS_NOT_YOUR_ROOT_FILESYSTEM
* In the filesystem images creation code, this file is removed before
launching fakeroot, and restored right after that, so that this
file is not present in the generated root filesystem images.
Note that the file has not been added to the default skeleton for two
reasons:
* It would have annoying to have in our source tree a file named in
capital letters inside system/skeleton/
* The proposed way works even if the user uses a custom skeleton.

When called out-of-tree, the Makefile is a wrapper that calls

This allows to automatically collect material that may be needed to comply with
the license of packages that Buildroot prepares for the target device.
The core of the implementation is made by the following parts:
- in package/pkg-utils.mk some helper functions are defined for common actions
such as generating a warning, producing info about a package etc;
- in package/pkg-gentargets.mk, within the GENTARGETS framework, a new
<PKG>-legal-info target produces all the info for a given package;
- Makefile implements the top-level targets:
- legal-info-prepare creates the output directory and produces legal info
about Buildroot itself and the toolchain, which mostly means just warning
the user that this is not implemented;
- legal-info, the only target that is supposed to be used directly, depends
on all of the above and finishes things by producing the README files from

Some toolchains, like the one built with buildroot itself, use hardlinks (for
example to link between the c++ and g++ binary). Unpacking such a toolchain
with the --strip-components options does not work correctly if the system tar
is too old (<1.17). Even recent releases of RedHat/CentOS still ship with
tar 1.15.
This patch checks for a suitable tar version (tar 1.17+) on the host system,
and adds host-tar to the host dependencies if none can be found.
host-tar is download and extracted as cpio.gz instead of tar.gz, to prevent

Sometimes, buildroot needs a certain host tool to do its job, e.g. tar. In
many cases, we expect this tool to be present on the host system, but this is
not always the case. Or maybe, the version on the host system is not
suitable, and we need a more recent one.
In some of these cases, instead of bailing out, buildroot could build the
package first (but only if the existing system package is not suitable).
To aid in detecting if a host package is suitable or not, this patch adds a
function suitable-host-package. When called with parameter foo, it will
execute check-host-foo.sh. This script should return either the path to the
suitable host package, or the empty string if no suitable package can be found.
The rules to determine whether something is suitable or not is left to
check-host-foo.sh and depends on foo.
An example usage of suitable-host-package is:
DEPENDENCIES_HOST_PREREQ += $(if $(call suitable-host-package,foo),,host-foo)
To avoid cluttering the existing dependencies.mk file, it includes any
check-host-foo.mk file. These files can be used to hold appropriate
dependency-related actions for foo.

The variable convert_to_autotools is not used in the script. The correct
variables are convert_to_target_autotools and convert_to_host_autotools.

The package count, cnt, should start with an initial value of 0. It
is incremented as each package *.mk file is checked. Starting with a
value of 1 makes the first ID = 2 and results in the TOTAL being off
by 1.

Update the grep tests used to determine the package type.
The package name and directory are now worked out magically due to:
package: add helper functions to get package name and directory magically
Because of this the extra arguments were removed by patches:
package: remove useless arguments from GENTARGETS
package: remove useless arguments from AUTOTARGETS
package: remove useless arguments from CMAKETARGETS

The CONFIG_UPDATE macro is no longer defined in
package/gnuconfig/gnuconfig.mk, but instead in
package/Makefile.autotools.in. It it also changed a little bit to take
the directory of the package sources as argument, and the AUTOTARGETS
infrastructure is updated to use this macro.
[Peter: drop echo in CONFIG_UPDATE]

The name "patch-kernel.sh" is a bit stupid, since this script is used
to patch everything in Buildroot, not only kernel trees.
