libnspr currently passes --enable-thumb2 if the CPU has thumb
instructions. This option will pass -mthumb to the compiler. However,
if an external multilib toolchain is used that has a thumb-specific
variant (e.g. Sourcery), it will try to use that one. But we only copy
a single variant to the sysroot, so the build will fail with:
.../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
...
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
../../config/rules.mk:303: recipe for target 'libnspr4.so' failed
We can in fact just remove the thumb2 handling. With current libnspr,
the thumb and thumb2 options just add -marm and -mthumb. But we already
pass that in our toolchain wrapper so it's completely redundant.
Note that when nothing is passed, the configure script still tries to
autodetect whether thumb2 is available (but doesn't do it correctly,
see the error above), but in the end it doesn't use the result for
anything. In other words, even if it detects that thumb2 is available,
it will _not_ pass -mthumb to the compiler.

Currently, we set HOSTARCH to the output of `uname -m`. This gives us
the architecture as seen by the running kernel. For example, we would
end up with 'x86_64' for a 64-bit kernel running on an x86_64 processor.
We use that value to determine whether we can run some binary tools,
like our pre-configured external toolchains.
However, one may be running a userland in a different bitness than that
of the running kernel. For example, one may run in a 32-bit chroot, even
though the kernel is running in 64-bit.
Up until recently, this was not an issue because the pre-configured
external toolchains were all requiring an i386 (x86 in Buildroot
parlance).
But since we introduced the latest Linaro toolchains, we now have
toolchains that require a 64-bit userland.
So, when running on a 64-bit kernel, we believe those toolchains are
available, even when the user is running a 32-bit userland. This causes
build failures for our autobuilders, like so:
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/9cd/9cdf10ec5b31144b2e03ea09cf128702339895b3/
with the following symptoms:
>>> toolchain-external undefined Configuring
Cannot execute cross-compiler '/home/test/autobuild/instance-3/output/host/opt/ext-toolchain/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc'
So, instead of relying on the output of `uname -r`, look for the host
gcc and extract the target it was configured to generate code for.
Fixes:
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/9cd/9cdf10ec5b31144b2e03ea09cf128702339895b3/ (aarch64)
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/888/8889aa7d9fb48370e4760a6edbc6d3ae945f02f2/ (arm)
and many more...
Besides fixing those issues, it will also allow us to add the 64-bit
variants of toolchains when they exist, like the upcoming Codescape
MTI and IMG toolchains for MIPS from Imagination Technologies.

Currently our toolchain infrastructure assumes that every toolchain has
nested sysroot directories. However that's not true for all of them. The
Codescape toolchains from Imagination Technologies use a side by side
sysroot structure, for instance.
This patch allows our toolchain infrastructure to detect what kind of
sysroot structure we have (nested or side by side) and performs the
appropriate actions.
[Thomas: update the comment above the function, to explain what's
going on with nested sysroots and side-by-side sysroots.]

Bump to latest commit to fix runtime issue with the Linux Kernel headers 4.4:
Starting thd: Unable to parse trigger line: [..]
With version 4.4 of the Linux Kernel the input event codes are not defined in
'linux/input.h' anymore, but in a seperate header file
'linux/input-event-codes.h' leaving triggerhappys evtable_*.h header files
empty with no event codes defined.
This issue is fixed upstream by commit 7e5abc69f215678e93a6b999524981c8b40bdcd9
which also makes overwriting of the 'LINUX_INPUT_H' definition obsolet.
Tested with an internal Buildroot toolchain with Linux Kernel headers 4.4 and
an external Linaro ARM 2015.08 toolchain with Linux Kernel headers 4.0.

This change introduces newer ARC toolchain in Buildroot.
Note this is the first release candidate and we'll probably see another
RC before cutting the final release.
That new arc-2015.12 release doesn't bring any significant changes but
mostly is focused on fixes and minor improvements here and there.
Most noticeable changes are:
* GCC updated to v4.8.5
* GDB updated to 7.10
You may find more info on fixes and improvements in that release at:

Some fine version control systems make all files read-only. The custom DTS file
may therefore be read-only, and that permission is preserved when copying into
the Linux build directory. A subsequent rebuild tries to 'cp' again, which
fails with a "Permission denied" error unless the -f option is used.

Recent MIPS compilers have an stricter agreement between the compiler
and the assembler on the ABI. The compiler now passes -msoft-float to
the assembler where it previously did not.
libffi uses MIPS hard-float instructions so when we try to build it for
soft-float using a recent compiler it fails because of the explained
above. This package should be fixed in order to add support for
soft-float.
In the meantime we can add a little hack in order to be able to build it
for soft-float. Basically we add ".set hardfloat" so the assembler will
not disable the hard-float instructions. The build will of course
include some hard-float bits which shouldn't exist in a soft-float
build, and that may cause runtime problems. But that's what we already
had before and we had lived with it.
We choose to apply this temporary fix because it only affects MIPS
soft-float builds. Otherwise we would need to disable libffi and
recursively all the packages depending on it (python, libglib2...) for
MIPS soft-float, which would be a bit overkill.

In efe7f68 (support/download: generate reproducible Bazaar archives),
bzr was instructed to store files with the timestamp set to the date
they were last modified in the repository, instead of the current date,
using the --per-file-timestamp option.
However, this option has been added only in bzr-2.2 (August 2010) which
is not available on older distros.
We fix that by not using --per-file-timestamp when the bzr version is
older than 2.2, in which case we just generate the archive with the
current date set on files.
This means the archive is thus non-reproducible, and if a hash is
available for that archive, the hash will not match, and Buildroot will
try to download from the mirror (if any) or fail (if no mirror).
