With this commit we're starting a series of updates of ARC tools. Significantly rewritten arc-2016.03 tools introduced way too many problems highlighted by Buildroot autobuilder. Now in attempt to resolve as many issues as possible by the time final release of arc-2016.09 tools is cut we'll be executing arc-2016.09 series with engineering snapshots like this one. We decided to go this way instead of applying separate patches here and there because ongoing development introduces quite a lot of changes and separate patches are not practical in Buildroot. Moreover this will give us very clean visibility of number of issues we see (hopefully it will decrease over time). One of the important changes introduced in this engineering build is initial set of changes for proper support of PIE on ARC in terms of both building on host and running on ARC target. I expect some PIE-related build breakages to go away and new ones will be treated as the high-priority issues to be fixed ASAP. For now we only update Binutils and GCC while keeping 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 one of the first engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for production builds.

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
