When a build type is set, CMake does append some flags that can override those set by Buildroot due to the gcc option parser (in which the last argument controling an option wins). Hereafter is a summary of the optimization and debug flags set by Buildroot and appended by CMake. * Flags set by Buildroot depending on the configuration: BR2_ENABLE_DEBUG | Optim. level | Buildroot {C,CXX}FLAGS =================+=====================+======================= y | BR2_OPTIMIZE_S | -Os -gx y | BR2_OPTIMIZE_G | -Og -gx y | BR2_OPTIMIZE_{0..3} | -On -gx n | BR2_OPTIMIZE_S | -Os n | BR2_OPTIMIZE_G | -Og n | BR2_OPTIMIZE_{0..3} | -On * Default flags appended by CMake depending on the build type: Build type | Flags | Effects on {C,CXX}FLAGS ===============+=================+=========================================== Debug | -g | Force -g, compatible with BR2_ENABLE_DEBUG MinSizeRel | -Os -DNDEBUG | Set -Os, compatible with BR2_OPTIMIZE_S Release | -O3 -DNDEBUG | Set -O3, closest to the others cases, | | though the optimization level is forced. RelWithDebInfo | -O2 -g -DNDEBUG | Force -g and set -O2, not friendly with BR To avoid the CMake flags take precedence over the Buildroot ones, this change sets in toolchainfile.cmake the per-config compiler flags CMake can append depending on the build type Buildroot defined. So, CMake does not mess up with the compilation flags Buildroot sets. It is still possible to override these per-config flags on the cmake command line. Note: If a CMake-based project forces the compiler and/or linker flag definitions (the default ones or the per-config ones - e.g. CMAKE_C_FLAGS/CMAKE_C_FLAGS_{DEBUG,RELEASE}), there is not much Buildroot can do about it. So, the flags will be overwritten anyway in these cases.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
