Some packages, like libbsd, use -isystem flags to provide so-called
overrides to the system include files. In this particular case, this
is used in a .pc file, then used by antoher package; pkgconf does not
mangle this path; and eventually that other package ends up using
/usr/include/bsd to search for headers.
Our current toolchain wrapper is limited to looking for -I and -L, so
the paranoid check does not kick in.
Furthermore, as noticed by Arnout, there might be a bunch of other
so-unsafe options: -isysroot, -imultilib, -iquote, -idirafter, -iprefix,
-iwithprefix, -iwithprefixbefore; even -B and --sysroot are unsafe.
Extend the paranoid check to be able to check any arbitrary number of
potentially unsafe options:
- add a list of options to check for, each with their length,
- iterate over this list until we find a matching unsafe option.
Compared to previously, the list of options include -I and -L (which we
already had) extended with -idirafter, -iquote and -isystem, but leaving
all the others noticed by Arnout away, until we have a reason for
handling them.

Current, we only display the path that causes the paranoid failure. This
is sufficient, as we can fail only for -I and -L options, and it is thus
easy to infer from the path, which option is the culprit.
However, we're soon to add a new test for the -isystem option, and then
when a failure occurs, we would not know whether it was because of -I or
-isystem. Being able to differentiate both can be hugely useful to
track down the root cause for the unsafe path.
Add two new arguments to the check_unsafe_path() function: one with the
current-or-previous argument, one to specify whether it has the path in
it or not. Print that in the error message, instead of just the path.

This reverts commit a0aa7e0e17 and reworks
the code to fix a major and potentially catastrophic bug when the
following conditions are met:
- The user has selected a "known toolchain profile", such as a Linaro
toolchain, a Sourcery CodeBench toolchain etc. People using "custom
toolchain profile" are not affected.
- The user has enabled BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PREINSTALLED=y to
indicate that the toolchain is already locally available (as
opposed to having Buildroot download and extract the toolchain)
- The user has left BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PATH empty, because his
toolchain is directly available through the PATH environment
variable. When BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PATH is non-empty, Buildroot
will do something silly (remove the toolchain contents), but that
are limited to the toolchain itself.
When such conditions are met, Buildroot will run "rm -rf /*" due to
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_DIR being empty.
This bug does not exist in 2016.05, and appeared in 2016.08 due to
commit a0aa7e0e17.
Commit a0aa7e0e17 removed the assignment
of TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_SOURCE and TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_SITE to empty, as
part of a global cleanup to remove such assignments that supposedly
had become unneeded following a fix of the package infrastructure
(75630eba22: core: do not attempt
downloads with no _VERSION set).
However, this causes TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_SOURCE to be non-empty even
for BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PREINSTALLED=y configuration, with the
following consequences:
- Buildroot downloads the toolchain tarball (while we're saying the
toolchain is already available). Not dramatic, but clearly buggy.
- Buildroot registers a post-extract hook that moves the toolchain
from its extract directory (output/build/toolchain-external-.../ to
its final location in host/opt/ext-toolchain/). Before doing this,
it removes everything in TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_INSTALL_DIR (which
should normally be host/opt/ext-toolchain/).
Another mistake that caused the bug is commit
b731dc7bfb ("toolchain-external: make
extraction idempotent"), which introduce the dangerous call "rm -rf
$(var)/*", which can be catastrophic if by mistake $(var) is
empty. Instead, this commit should have just used rm -rf $(var) to
remove the directory instead: it would have failed without consequences
if $(var) is empty, and the directory was anyway already re-created
right after with a mkdir.
To address this problem, we:
- Revert commit a0aa7e0e17, so that
_SOURCE and _SITE are empty in the pre-installed toolchain case.
- Rework the code to ensure that similar problems will no happen in the
future, by:
- Registering the TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_MOVE hook only when
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_DOWNLOAD=y, since moving the toolchain is
only needed when Buildroot downloaded the toolchain.
- Introduce a variable TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR which
is the path in which Buildroot installs external toolchains when it
is in charge of downloading/extracting them. Then, the
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_MOVE hook is changed to use this variable, which
is guaranteed to be non-empty.
- Replace the removal of the directory contents $(var)/* by removing
the directory itself $(var). The directory was anyway already
re-created if needed afterwards. Thanks to doing this, if $(var)
ever becomes empty, we will do "rm -rf" which will fail and abort
the build, and not the catastrophic "rm -rf /*".

musl provides neither sys/queue.h nor sys/cdefs.h. Those two headers are
however quite widely used in a lot of packages (though they should at
least not use cdefs.h which is only full of mostly-legacy macros, and
which is mostly an internal header of glibc and was never really meant to
be exposed to, and used by packages).
But we don't live in an ideal world, so a lot of packages break when
those two headers are missing.
We already took care of sys/queue.h with the netbsd-queue package. But
the need for cdefs.h is getting more and more pressing.
We rename the netbsd-queue package into musl-compat-headers, and we
make it install sys/queue.h (from NetBSD) and sys/cdefs.h (a minimalist
one we bundle in Buildroot). We can't use the cdefs.h from NetBSD
because it includes machine-dependent headers; instead we bundle a very
minimalistic one, that covers only what we need.

in order to keep only a few useful ones rather than keeping them all.
It helps in providing a small filesystem size by default, and still
allows advanced users who really need locales to tune their
configuration.
As an example, a very basic system with just util-linux enabled (not

The cairo package fails to build on some architectures:
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC is enabled, but libatomic is in fact not
available.
This happens because the gcc logic in libatomic/configure.tgt does not
recognize "uclinux" as a valid OS part of the target tuple, and
therefore it does not build libatomic.
The "uclinux" part of the tuple is used by Buildroot when
BR2_BINFMT_FLAT=y, so we make BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC enabled only
if !BR2_BINFMT_FLAT.
It is worth mentioning that support for the uclinux tuple could most
likely very easily be added to gcc: it could rely on the generic
"posix" implementation of libatomic, which uses pthread locks,
available on all architectures where thread support is available.

this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools.
This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng007 tag plus a
couple of fixes on top of it that will all make its way in the
next engineering build.
We hope this patch will cure most buildroot ARC failures as it
contains important fixes:
1) PIE fix. We have added PIE support to ARC toolchain at last.
So that should prevent breakage of many packages. As ARC now
supports PIE we remove ARC from BR2_TOOLCHAIN_SUPPORTS_PIE
exclusion in toolchain/Config.in file.
2) Assembler fix. This patch also have changes that fixes frequent
assembler failures, e.g.:
http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/543/5430b902d900943a34c1888e7e410bd5df367bc2//
We still keep 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 next engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series
and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for
production builds.

like for the nested sysroots which are handled in copy_toolchain_sysroot
but there is not enough information in there to determine whether the
sysroot layout was nested or side-by-side.
For the above reason plus the fact that this is the only toolchain
needing this, better to handle that symlink creation using a hook which

In 2a87b64 (toolchain-external: align library locations in target and
staging dir), copying the libraries from the sysroot to the target was
changed to a simple find-based solution.
To be sure that the staging directory was entered to find the libraries,
in case the variable was pointing to a symlink, the -L clause to find
was used.
However, that causes extraneous libraries to be copied over.
For example, a ct-ng toolchain would have this sysroot (e.g for an arm
32-bit toolchain):
.../sysroot/lib/
.../sysroot/lib32 -> lib
.../sysroot/lib64 -> lib
.../sysroot/usr/lib/
.../sysroot/usr/lib32 -> lib
.../sysroot/usr/lib64 -> lib
Which we would carry as-is to our own sysroot.
But then, in target, our skeleton creates the /lib/ and /usr/lib
directories, with the necessary lib32 or lib64 symlink pointing to it.
In this case, a lib32->lib symlink is created, but no lib64 symlink
since this is a 32-bit architecture.
To copy the required libraries from staging into target, we scan the
staging directory for all occurences of the required libraries, and copy
them over to target, keeping the same directory layout relative to the
sysroot.
For example:
.../sysroot/usr/lib/libfoo.so --> .../target/usr/lib/libfoo.so
.../sysroot/usr/lib32/libbar.so --> .../target/usr/lib32/libbar.so
.../sysroot/usr/lib64/libbuz.so --> .../target/usr/lib64/libbuz.so
So, when we copy over the libraries from our staging to the target
directory, the "find -L .../sysroot -name libblabla.so.*" would find
multiple instances of libblabla, each in the /usr/lib /usr/lib32 and
/usr/lib64 locations (they are all the exact same file, though).
Since we do have the /usr/lib32->lib symlink, all is OK (but there are
two copies going on, which could be avoided). However, since we do not
have the /usr/lib64->lib symlink, the /usr/lib64/ directory is created.
This was very difficult to observe, as no /lib64/ directory is created,
only the /usr/lib64/ one was. To top it off, this only happens with a
merged /usr, which does not seem like not a common case without systemd.
Since the reason to use -L was to be sure to enter our staging
directory, we just need to ensure that the path ends up with a slash, as
was already talked about in this thread:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-April/159737.html
After further discussion, it turns out that the original patch came along
because of the confusion between output/staging (which is a symlink) and
$(STAGING_DIR) which expands to output/host/usr/<tupple>/sysroot (which is
never a symlink), so the symlink handling isn't really needed at all.

The toolchain-external logic is roughly:
- populate the staging dir by rsyncing the entire ${ARCH_LIB_DIR} and
usr/${ARCH_LIB_DIR} from sysroot.
- populate the target dir by explictly copying some libraries from sysroot
into target/lib and some other libraries in target/usr/lib, the split
being hardcoded into buildroot regardless of the location in the sysroot.
This means that a library libfoo could be located in:
staging/lib/libfoo.so
target/usr/lib/libfoo.so
When debugging an application that links against this library, gdb will
fruitlessly search for 'usr/lib/libfoo.so' in staging, and then suggest to
use 'set solib-search-path' which is a hack, really.
To solve the problem, we need to make sure that libraries from the toolchain
are installed in the same relative location in staging and target.
Achieve this by:
- replacing the convoluted search for libraries using for+find in sysroot
with a simple find in staging.
- determining DESTDIR for each library individually based on the location in
staging.
- treating LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS equivalently
These changes also allow for the removal of most arguments to
copy_toolchain_lib_root in the method itself and their callers.
Test procedure:
- set configuration for a given toolchain
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-before
- apply patch
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-after
- diff -u /tmp/out-before /tmp/out-after
The only changes should be some libraries moving from lib to usr/lib or vice
versa. Notable examples being libstdc++ and libatomic.

When a toolchain is glibc based, the getent package assumes that
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin contains the getent program. Unfortunately, the
Codescape MIPS toolchains do not conform with this:
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/{bin,sbin} are empty, and instead three directories
are provided: bin-o32, bin-n32 and bin-n64 (ditto for sbin), one for
each supported MIPS ABI.
Since this is a toolchain-specific oddity, we handle it by adding a
post-install fixup hook that creates $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/{bin,sbin} as
symbolic link to the appropriate directory.

Until now, we were assuming that whenever you have gcc 4.8, libatomic
is available. It turns out that this is not correct, since libatomic
will not be available if thread support is disabled in the toolchain.
Therefore, __atomic_*() intrinsics may not be available even if the
toolchain uses gcc 4.8.
To solve this problem, we introduce a BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC
boolean, which indicates whether the toolchain has libatomic. It is
the case when you are using gcc >= 4.8 *and* thread support is
enabled. We then use this new BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC to define
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ATOMIC.
As explained in the comment, on certain architectures, libatomic is
technically not needed to provide the __atomic_*() intrinsics since
they might be all built-in. However, since libatomic is only absent in
non-thread capable toolchains, it is not worth making things more
complex for such seldomly used configuration.
Note that we are introducing the intermediate
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_LIBATOMIC option because it will be useful on its
own for certain packages.

[Thomas: improve Config.in comment using a suggestion from Yann.]
As we currently download the actual sources as part of saving the
legal-info, we do not check the hashes of those downloads.
That's because, during legal-info, there is not package involved, and
thus there's no path to an actual .hash file.
However, this precludes legal-info from working in off-line mode. A
subsequent patch will make it possible to do so, and actual sources will
be downloaded as another classical package download.
This will have two consequences:
- first, we will be able to add hashes for actual sources, so we can
ensure their integrity,
- second, and as a direct consequence of the above, when a .hash file
is present, it would have to list all the hashes for that package,
or that would be treated as an error.
Currently, the only package that falls in this case is the external-
toolchain, for which we have means to retrieve the sources for some of
the toolchains.
So we just add hashes for those actual external-toolchain sources we may
have to download.
Those hashes are not used for now, but they'll come into play a few
patches down.

We do source the glibc and uClibc packages in the toolchain menu,
because they do provide user-visible options. However, we do not so
far source the musl Config.in file
However, in 822be87 (toolchain: include C libraries in legal-info),
a Config.in file for musl was explicitly created, so that:
- legal-info would work (needed at the time, probably no longer needed
nowadays),
- the appropriate packages are enabled, like netbsd-queue or kernel
headers.
Yet, we do not source musl/Config.in, which means we do not get
netbsd-queue or kernel-headers to be selected:
$ make distclean; make menuconfig
Toolchain --->
C library ---> musl
save-and-exit
$ grep BR2_PACKAGE_LINUX_HEADERS .config
[nothing]
$ grep BR2_PACKAGE_NETBSD_QUEUE .config
[nothing]
Fix that by sourcing musl/Config.in at the same place we source glibc
and uClibc.
Normally, we do have a check in place that verifies that a package
that is not enabled is not a dependency of another package that is
enabled. However, musl is only a dependency of host-gcc-final, which
is a host package and has no corresponding BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GCC_FINAL.
Thus host-gcc-final is not in the PACKAGES variable, and thus does not
trigger our check.

While the prebuilt musl toolchains provided by http://musl.codu.org/
had not been updated in a while, a new release based on musl 1.1.12
has been put online in December 2015. This commit updates our external
toolchain package to use this new pre-built toolchain.
Compared to the previous 1.1.6 toolchain, there are some changes:
- The MIPS big endian soft-float variant is no longer available.
- The Microblaze variant is no longer available.
- SuperH 4, both little and big endian, variants have been added.
- The components have been updated: gcc 5.3 is used, binutils 2.25.1,
and of course musl 1.1.12.
Besides the update itself, in this commit, we are:
- Making the musl toolchain non-selectable on MIPS big endian
soft-float.
- Making the musl toolchain actually work on MIPS little endian
soft-float, by downloading the right tarball and setting up the
right symbolic link.
- Removing support for the Microblaze variant, and adding support for
the SH4 variants.
All variants except armeb have been boot tested under Qemu, up to a
Busybox shell prompt. armeb has not been tested due to the lack of a
Qemu configuration for this architecture.

Currently, Buildroot provides one BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS boolean option
to indicate whether the architecture supports atomic operations or
not. However, the reality of atomic operations support is much more
complicated and requires more than one option to be expressed
properly.
There are in fact two types of atomic built-ins provided by gcc:
(1) The __sync_*() family of functions, which have been in gcc for a
long time (probably gcc 4.1). They are available in variants
operating on 1-byte, 2-byte, 4-byte and 8-byte integers. Some
architectures implement a number of variants, some do not
implement any, some implement all of them.
They are now considered "legacy" by the gcc developers but are
nonetheless still being used by a significant number of userspace
libraries and applications.
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/_005f_005fsync-Builtins.html
(2) The __atomic_*() family of functions, which have been introduced
in gcc 4.7. They have been introduced in order to support C++11
atomic operations. In gcc 4.8, they are available on all
architectures, either built-in or in the libatomic library part
of the gcc runtime (in which case the application needs to be
linked with -latomic). In gcc 4.7, the __atomic_*() intrinsics
are only supported on certain architectures, since libatomic did
not exist at the time.
For (1), a single BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS is not sufficient, because
depending on the architecture, some variants may or may not be
available. Setting BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS to false as soon as one of the
variant is missing would cause a large number of packages to become
unavailable, even if they in fact use only more common variants
available on a large number of architectures. For this reason, we've
chosen to introduce four new Config.in options:
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_1
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_2
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_3
- BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_4
Which indicate whether the toolchain support 1-byte, 2-byte, 4-byte
and 8-byte __sync_*() built-ins respectively.
For (2), we introduce a BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ATOMIC, which indicates if
the __atomic_*() built-ins are available. Note that it is up to the
package to link with -latomic when gcc is >= 4.8. Since __atomic_*()
intrinsics for all sizes are supported starting
We conducted a fairly large analysis about various architectures
supported by Buildroot, as well as with a number of different
toolchains, to check which combinations support which variant. To do,
we linked the following program with various toolchains:
int main(void)
{
uint8_t a;
uint16_t b;
uint32_t c;
uint64_t d;
__sync_fetch_and_add(&a, 3);
__sync_fetch_and_add(&b, 3);
__sync_fetch_and_add(&c, 3);
__sync_fetch_and_add(&d, 3);
__sync_val_compare_and_swap(&a, 1, 2);
__sync_val_compare_and_swap(&b, 1, 2);
__sync_val_compare_and_swap(&c, 1, 2);
__sync_val_compare_and_swap(&d, 1, 2);
__atomic_add_fetch(&a, 3, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_add_fetch(&b, 3, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_add_fetch(&c, 3, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_add_fetch(&d, 3, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_compare_exchange_n(&a, &a, 2, 1, __ATOMIC_RELAXED, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_compare_exchange_n(&b, &b, 2, 1, __ATOMIC_RELAXED, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_compare_exchange_n(&c, &c, 2, 1, __ATOMIC_RELAXED, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
__atomic_compare_exchange_n(&d, &d, 2, 1, __ATOMIC_RELAXED, __ATOMIC_RELAXED);
return 0;
}
And looked at which symbols were unresolved. For the __atomic_*()
ones, we tested with and without -latomic to see which variants are
built-in, which variants require libatomic. This testing effort has
led to the following results:

Notes:
* __atomic built-ins appeared in gcc 4.7, so for toolchais older than
that, the __atomic column is empty.
* Y means 'supported built-in'
* L means 'supported via linking to libatomic' (only for __atomic
functions)
* X indicates a very special case for 8 bytes __sync built-ins on
ARM. On ARMv7, there is no problem, starting from gcc 4.7, the
__sync built-in for 8 bytes integers is implemented, fully in
userspace. For cores < ARMv7, doing a 8 bytes atomic operation
requires help from the kernel. Unfortunately, the libgcc code
implementing this uses the __write() function to display an error,
and this function is internal to glibc. Therefore, if you're using
glibc everything is fine, but if you're using uClibc or musl, you
cannot link an application that uses 8 bytes __sync
operations. This has been fixed as part of gcc PR68095, merged in
the gcc 5 branch but not yet part of any gcc release.

This commit only introduces the new options. Follow-up commits will
progressively change the packages using BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS to use
the appropriate BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_x or BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_ATOMIC
until the point where BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS can be removed.

Currently, we have a pattern-matching that automatically derives the
the source tarball filename from the binary tarball filename.
However, the latest Linaro toolchains no longer follow that scheme (and
do not even readily provide the sources...).
Remove the generic pattern-matching, and explicitly set the source
tarball name for those toolchains that do have a source tarball readily
available.

LIBSPATH is populated based on a find with a pattern that can look like:
libfoo*.so
and thus the output of the find will contain all file paths that match this
pattern.
Unfortunately, the name LIBSPATH suggests that only one entry is returned,
rather than possibly multiple.
As this code is quite complex, use the more accurate name LIBPATHS iso
LIBSPATH.

[Thomas: only add the symlink with the old 2014.09 Linaro toolchain,
for the newer ones, it is no longer needed.]
