Thomas Petazzoni 4deb2d93c5 gcc: add support for gcc 5.1
This commit adds support for gcc 5.1 in Buildroot. In terms of gcc
patches, compared to gcc 4.9.x:

 * Kept as is, sometimes after minor adjusments:

   100-uclibc-conf.patch
   301-missing-execinfo_h.patch
   810-arm-softfloat-libgcc.patch
   830-arm_unbreak_armv4t.patch
   840-microblaze-enable-dwarf-eh-support.patch
   850-libstdcxx-uclibc-c99.patch
   860-cilk-wchar.patch

 * Dropped:

   110-pr64896.patch
   111-pr65730.patch

 * Split in multiple parts:

   900-musl-support.patch

   The patches from Crosstool-NG for muls support are used instead of
   one single patch.

 * Renamed:

   910-gcc-poison-system-directories.patch to
   200-gcc-poison-system-directories.patch

   920-libgcc-remove-unistd-header.patch to
   201-libgcc-remove-unistd-header.patch

   Since the 9xx part of the series is now used by the various musl
   related patches.

We have tested the following configurations, with a minimal Busybox
system:

 * ARM, uClibc-ng
 * ARM, glibc
 * ARM, musl
 * x86, uClibc-ng and uClibc 0.9.33.2
 * x86, glibc
 * x86, musl

All of the configurations built fine. All the configurations boot fine
in Qemu, except x86/uClibc (either ng or 0.9.33.2), it segfaults when
running init:

devtmpfs: mounted
Freeing unused kernel memory: 300K (c1389000 - c13d4000)
init[1]: segfault at 0 ip b77708c1 sp bfa9bb0c error 4 in ld-uClibc-0.9.33.2.so[b776c000+6000]
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000000b

We'll give some time for the uClibc developers to fix the problem
before taking other measures in Buildroot to exclude gcc 5.1 from a
x86/uClibc configuration.

README

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.
