The toolchain from the Cavium Octeon SDK has a sysroot layout as follows: ./lib32 ./lib32/octeon2 ./lib32-fp ./lib64 ./lib64/octeon2 ./lib64-fp ./usr ./usr/lib ./usr/lib32 ./usr/lib32/octeon2 ./usr/lib32-fp ./usr/lib64 ./usr/lib64/octeon2 ./usr/lib64-fp ./usr/bin ./usr/bin32 ./usr/bin32-fp ./usr/bin64-fp ./usr/libexec ./usr/libexec32 ./usr/libexec32-fp ./usr/libexec64-fp ./usr/sbin ./usr/sbin32 ./usr/sbin32-fp ./usr/sbin64-fp ./usr/include ./usr/share ./sbin ./sbin32 ./sbin32-fp ./sbin64-fp ./etc ./var with the following selections: - lib64 : default - lib64/octeon2 : -march=octeon2 - lib64-fp : -march=octeon3 - lib32 : -mabi=n32 - lib32/octeon2 : -mabi=n32 -march=octeon2 - lib32-fp : -mabi=n32 -march=octeon3 In case of '-mabi=n32 -march=octeon2' (but same is true for n64+octeon2)the original Buildroot toolchain logic would copy both the libraries in lib32 as the subdirectory lib32/octeon2, which means that every library is installed twice (but only one of each is really needed). While ARCH_LIB_DIR is determined by the location of libc.a, which in this case is effectively: <sysroot>/usr/lib32/octeon2/libc.a the variable only retains 'lib32' and not 'lib32/octeon2' as expected. To make Buildroot cope with this style of toolchain layout, we need to adapt the calculation of ARCH_LIB_DIR to also include the second part. This, in turn, means that ARCH_LIB_DIR is no longer guaranteed to be a singular path component, resulting in some additional changes. Certain older Linaro toolchains actually had the same layout. Libraries were located in lib/<tuple> rather than lib directly. Previously, this was handled by adding a toolchain-specific fixup that creates a symlink lib/<tuple> -> lib, but with this patch this would no longer be needed. Note that one difference with the Octeon case is that these Linaro toolchains are not actually multilib, i.e. there is just one location with the libraries and thus there is no problem with duplicated libraries.

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
