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:
__sync __atomic gcc

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.
* - means not supported
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.

Currently, following symbolic links are created in both target and
staging directories:
- lib(32|64) --> lib
- usr/lib(32|64) --> lib
The decision for lib32 or lib64 is based on the target architecture
configuration in buildroot (BR2_ARCH_IS_64).
In at least one case this is not correct: when building for a Cavium Octeon
III processor using the toolchain from the Cavium Networks SDK, and
specifying -march=octeon3 in BR2_TARGET_OPTIMIZATION, libraries are expected
in directory 'lib32-fp' rather than 'lib32' (ABI=n32; likewise for
lib64-fp in case of ABI=n64)
More generally the correct symbolic link is from (usr/)${ARCH_LIB_DIR}->lib.
However, feedback from Arnout Vandecappelle is that there are packages that
do depend on the lib32/lib64 symlink, even if ARCH_LIB_DIR is different.
Hence, these links must be kept.
Fix the problem as follows:
- For internal toolchains: no change
- For external toolchains: create a symlink ARCH_LIB_DIR->lib if
(usr/)ARCH_LIB_DIR does not exist yet.

The copy_toolchain_sysroot helper in toolchain/helpers.mk performs an
rsync of various directories from the extracted external toolchain to the
corresponding directory in staging.
The relevant (simplified) snippet is:
for i in etc $${ARCH_LIB_DIR} sbin usr usr/$${ARCH_LIB_DIR}; do \
rsync -au --chmod=u=rwX,go=rX --exclude 'usr/lib/locale' \
--exclude '/lib/' --exclude '/lib32/' \
--exclude '/lib64/' \
$${ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR}/$$i/ $(STAGING_DIR)/$$i/ ; \
done ; \
The exclusion logic of lib/lib32/lib64 has originally been added by commit
5628776c4a with the purpose of only copying
the relevant usr/lib* directory from the toolchain to staging, instead of
all. For example, if ARCH_LIB_DIR is 'lib64', then only usr/lib64 would be
copied and usr/lib and usr/lib32 are ignored. It works by ignoring any
lib/lib32/lib64 subdirectory on the rsync of 'usr' and then separately
copying usr/{lib,lib32,lib64} as appropriate. (The exclusion rules only have
impact on the files beneath the main source directory.)
However, ARCH_LIB_DIR can take other values than (lib, lib32, lib64), for
example lib32-fp or lib64-fp (Octeon III toolchain with -march=octeon3). In
the existing code, the rsync for 'usr' would then already copy these lib
directories, and the next rsync for 'usr/$${ARCH_LIB_DIR}' does nothing.
By itself, this is not a very big problem: the staging directory simply has
some extra directories. However, a subsequent patch will create a staging
symlink from $${ARCH_LIB_DIR} to lib. The first rsync would then overwrite
that symlink with the real directory usr/$${ARCH_LIB_DIR} from the
toolchain, which is not correct.
Assuming the patch that creates the symlink ARCH_LIB_DIR->lib is applied,
the original situation after 'make clean toolchain' with an
ARCH_LIB_DIR=lib32-fp is:
$ ls -ld output/staging/{,usr/}lib* output/target/{usr/,}lib*
drwxr-xr-x 2 4096 May 26 2015 output/staging/lib

lrwxrwxrwx 1 3 Jan 20 13:47 output/target/usr/lib32-fp -> lib
Notice how usr/lib32-fp is not a symlink but a directory, and the presence
of an unnecessary directory usr/lib64-fp.
This patch improves the rsync exclusion rules by excluding any lib*
directory on the first rsync. As this would also exclude any
libexec/libexec32/... directory, explicitly include them first (first match
takes precedence). This (as is already the case today) results in more
usr/libexec* directories than needed, but it is not touched by this patch.
With the fix applied, the situation becomes:
drwxr-xr-x 2 4096 May 26 2015 output/staging/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 3 Jan 20 14:27 output/staging/lib32 -> lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1 3 Jan 20 14:27 output/staging/lib32-fp -> lib

lrwxrwxrwx 1 3 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/usr/lib32-fp -> lib
For cases where ARCH_LIB_DIR is one of lib, lib32 or lib64 this fix
makes no difference, and likewise for internal toolchains.

Therefore, add a leading (to restrict the scope to first-level) and trailing
(to restrict to directories) slash to the exclude pattern. From 'man rsync':
- if the pattern starts with a / then it is anchored to [..] the root of
the transfer.
- if the pattern ends with a / then it will only match a directory, not
a regular file, symlink, or device.

With the recent change in the external toolchain logic to provide only

As reported by Yann E. MORIN [1], the latest CS PowerPC toolchain (2012.03)
requires a PPC CPU with SPE, which is basically two variants, 8540 (e500v1) and
8548 (e500v2) in Buildroot. All other PPC CPU can't use that toolchain.
Keep CS PowerPC 2011.03 as latest available version and add a second Kconfig
symbol for the CS PowerPC 2012.03 since it's verry specific to one CPU type
(e500v2).
Previously it was possible to select the CS 2012.03 with a powerpc 8540 (e500v1)
CPU but the sysroot provided by the toolchain only support the 8548 (e500v2)
variant. Allow to select CS 2012.03 only with BR2_powerpc_8548.
Also re-add the previous CS toolchain handling for pixman and liquid-dsp.

Musl does not provide a 'sys/queue.h' implementation, and this has been
a problem for packages that depend on it.
So lets create a package called netbsd-queue that will install a
'sys/queue.h' in the staging directory when enabled, based on the
NetBSD implementation.
Musl toolchain and external toolchain packages will depend on this
package, so that 'sys/queue.h' will be always installed when compiling
with a musl based toolchain.
Tested on ARM and x86 in the following cases:
- Buildroot musl toolchain.
- External musl toolchain without 'sys/queue.h'.
- External musl toolchain with 'sys/queue.h'.
Fixes:

In the latest Linaro toolchain, the gdbserver has moved (surprise!)
and is now located side-by-side with the toolchain executables.
This commit adds this path as a new location where to search for a
gdbserver, and while at it wraps the line that has become too long in
the process.

Commit 23ffa7ec first extracts to the toolchain-external build
directory and then moves everything to $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain.
However, this is not idempotent, because moving directories over
existing ones doesn't always work, particularly if the target is on
another device.
Simply remove the destination contents before moving.

The backfin toolchains come in two archives.
We extract the first (main) archive using the generic extract commands,
while the second is extracted as a post-extract hook.

Now that packages can provide a list of files to be excluded when
extracting their archive, downloaded external toolchains are no longer
special in this respect.
Still, those toolchains are currently extracted directly into their
final location, $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain/ which means we still
need a custom extract command.
Except, we don't really need it: we can just move the toolchain, after
it's been extracted by the generic extract command, with a post-extract
hook.
This means that:
- we now extract the toolchain with the generic extract command,
- the toolchain is thus extracted into $(@D) ,
- fixup commands are run against $(@D), as a post-extract hook,
instead of against $(HOST_DIR)/opt/ext-toolchain ,
- once this is done, we move $(@D)/* into the final location with a
new post-extract hook.
Note: the blackfin case is special, and will be handled in a follow-up
patch.
[Thomas: register the TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_FIXUP_CMDS only for the Arago
case, add some additional comments in the code about why we're moving
the toolchain around.]

Currently, for the blackfin external toolchains, we tell tar to
extract files with the --hard-dereference. However, --hard-dereference
is only meaningful when creating an archive, not when extracting
it. Therefore, let's drop this option.

That toolchain is built for an x86_64 host, so we make it available only

To avoid dealing with legacy symbols and introduce versioned options,
we reuse the same symbol for both toolchains. Thanks to the different
depednencies (on the host), we can give them different prompts and
different help texts.

In Makefile, the comma ',' is used to separate the arguments passed to
functions, so we should not be allowed to use straight commas in strings
we want to expand.
For the toolchain wrapper, we need to transform a list:
-mfoo -mbar -mbuz
into something acceptable for a C array assignment:
"-mfoo", "-mbar", "-mbuz",
So, we use a $(foreach ...) loop for that. However, we do have a
straight comma in there.
It does not cause any issue in practice, since $(foreach) is a make
builtin function that accepts three and only three parameters.
However, this is not sane.
Change the straight comma to the usual $(comma) expansion, like we would
do for a call to any other function.
At the same time, make the code a bit easier to read, by first creating
the transformed list, and then creating the define.

Currently the CodeSourcery toolchains for MIPS can be selected to build
mips32 (revision level 1) targets, but the resulting binaries are built
for mips32r2 instead. This is because these toolchains don't have
library support other than mips32r2, so there is no point to allow the
selection of a mips32 variant with a CodeSourcery MIPS toolchain, since
everything will be built for mips32r2 instead.

The buildroot internal toolchain now adds a wrapper. When we use a
buildroot toolchain as an external toolchain, we want to bypass this
wrapper and call the compiler directly, for two reasons:
1. The options added by the wrapper are not necessarily appropriate
when it is reused as an external toolchain. For instance, ccache
may have been enabled while building the toolchain but not when
using it as an external toolchain.
2. Currently, the wrapper expects to reside in .../usr/bin, but when
used as an external toolchain it will be in .../ext-toolchain/bin.
Therefore, the wrapper can't find the real binary and sysroot
anymore.
To bypass the wrapper, we check for the existence of *.br_real files in
the external toolchain directory. If any such file exists, the wrapper
will add the .br_real suffix for all the wrapped files. Note that the
wrapper doesn't check if the *.br_real exists for each individual
wrapped file, it just assumes that all wrapped files have a
corresponding .br_real. This is currently true but that may change in
the future of course.
