Thomas De Schampheleire fe23cb5d00 toolchain-external: improve sysroot rsync if ARCH_LIB_DIR != lib/lib32/lib64
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/staging/lib32 -> lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1     3 Jan 20 13:47 output/staging/lib32-fp -> lib
drwxr-xr-x 2  4096 Jan 20 13:47 output/staging/usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1     3 Jan 20 13:47 output/staging/usr/lib32 -> lib
drwxr-xr-x 4  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/lib32-fp
drwxr-xr-x 4  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/lib64-fp
drwxr-xr-x 4  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec
drwxr-xr-x 3  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec32
drwxr-xr-x 3  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec32-fp
drwxr-xr-x 3  4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec64-fp
drwxr-xr-x 2  4096 Jan 20 13:48 output/target/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1     3 Jan 20 13:47 output/target/lib32 -> lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1     3 Jan 20 13:47 output/target/lib32-fp -> lib
drwxr-xr-x 2  4096 Jan 20 13:48 output/target/usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1     3 Jan 20 13:47 output/target/usr/lib32 -> 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
drwxr-xr-x 4 4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1    3 Jan 20 14:27 output/staging/usr/lib32 -> lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1    3 Jan 20 14:27 output/staging/usr/lib32-fp -> lib
drwxr-xr-x 4 4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec
drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec32
drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec32-fp
drwxr-xr-x 3 4096 May 26  2015 output/staging/usr/libexec64-fp
drwxr-xr-x 2 4096 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1    3 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/lib32 -> lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1    3 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/lib32-fp -> lib
drwxr-xr-x 2 4096 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/usr/lib
lrwxrwxrwx 1    3 Jan 20 14:27 output/target/usr/lib32 -> 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.

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.
