cb29907c12 toolchain-external: do not pass TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CFLAGS for kernel headers check
When getting the sysroot used for the kernel headers version check,
passing TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CFLAGS causes a problem when used with
multilib toolchains, where only the main sysroot has the header files,
and the other sysroots only have the libraries.

Since the kernel headers version used is normally the same for all
sysroots, this commit solves this problem by removing the
TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CFLAGS argument when calling
toolchain_find_sysroot, so that it returns the main sysroot, in which
<linux/version.h> can be found for the kernel headers version check.

4e4ed5631f toolchain-external: apply kernel headers check to non-custom toolchains
Since the introduction of the kernel headers Config.in options, the
external toolchain logic had a check for custom external toolchains to
verify that the kernel headers version entered by the user matches the
one of the toolchain. However, this check was not made for non-custom
external toolchains (i.e the built-in profiles, such as Linaro,
CodeSourcery and al.), making the assumption that the Buildroot
developers will do the right selection.

However, it is quite nice when bumping external toolchains to have
this automatic kernel headers version check, to ensure we select the
appropriate kernel headers version.

Therefore, this commit makes the kernel headers version check
applicable to non-custom external toolchains.

As reported by William Welch <bvwelch@gmail.com>, the Musl external
toolchain provided by the musl-cross project is only Microblaze
big-endian. In fact, Musl seems to only support the big endian variant

("toolchain-external: add Linaro ARM big endian toolchain") a mistake
was made, probably due to a rebase conflict that was incorrectly solved:

7130ceb267 toolchain: generate a gdbinit file
This commit slightly improves the external toolchain backend, and the
gdb build logic to create a file named
$(STAGING_DIR)/usr/share/buildroot/gdbinit which can be used as a
gdbinit file using gdb -x option. This allows gdb to automatically use
the proper sysroot to find libraries.

The initial insight for this patch comes from the report of Oded
Hanson <OHanson@xsightsys.com>, who found an issue with the Eclipse
Buildroot plugin, which was setting a solib-path in gdb, but not a
sysroot. Setting a solib-path was enough to find shared libraries, but
not the dynamic linker. And since Eclipse doesn't allow to set the
sysroot in any other way than giving a gdbinit file, it makes sense to
have Buildroot generate a gdbinit file (which can be used in other
situations than Eclipse).

To achieve this, this commit introduces a gen_gdbinit_file helper in
toolchain/helpers.mk, and uses it for the internal toolchain and
external toolchain backends.

e48ef3f522 toolchain-external: Introduce kernel headers sanitization
The Nios-II Sourcery external toolchain (the only Nios-II we currently
support) exports broken kernel headers. In particular, these kernels should
be exported using the "headers_install" rule which applies a set of fixes
on the kernel headers so they are suitable for userspace usage.

In order to fix this, add a post-install hook to perform the header fixes
ourselves. The result is equivalent to apply the "headers_install" rule.

2a82bb8a90 support/check-kernel-headers: fix old custom toolchains without -print-sysroot
Old toolchains, with old gcc that do not support -print-sysroot, break the
kernel-headers version check script: it fails to find the sysroot of the
toolchain, and thus ends up including the host's linux/version.h.

Most of the time, this will break early, since the host's kernel headers
will not match the toolchain settings.

But it can happen that the check is succesful, although the configuration
of the toolchain is wrong:

  - the custom toolchain has kernel headers vX.Y
  - the user selected vX.Z  (Z!=Y)
  - the host has headers vX.Y

In this case, the check passes OK, but the build of some packages later on
will break (which is exactly what those _AT_LEAST_XXX options were added to
avoid).

Fix that by passing the sysroot to the check script, instead of the cross
compiler.

We get the sysroot as thus:

  - for custom toolchains, we use the macro toolchain_find_sysroot. We can
    do that, because we already have a complete sysroot with libc.a at that
    time.

  - for internal toolchain using a custom kernel headers version, we just
    use $(STAGING_DIR). We can't use the macro as for custom toolchains
    above, because at the time we install the kernel headers, we do not yet
    have a complete sysroot with a libc.a.  But we can just use
    $(STAGING_DIR), since we're only interested in the kernel headers.

For all other types of toolchains, we already have the _AT_LEAST_XXX options
properly set, so we need not add a check in this case.

Fixes:

a1a86ebfba liburcu: disable build with gcc-4.8.x on ARM
Because of a gcc bug [1], liburcu checks for compiler version [2] and
stops the build prematurely if gcc-4.8.[0-2] is detected for ARM.

However a bug fix exists [3] and may be backported by ARM toolchain
providers; that's what is done in Buildroot [4] or Linaro [5].

So, this change:
- add a patch in liburcu to allow build with ARM gcc-4.8.2;
- adds a new hidden symbol to reflect the toolchain status with regard
  to this bug [1];
- and controls liburcu visibility.

However, a limitation of this is when the user is using a custom
toolchain; that's why the bug details have been added in the liburcu
help message.

Ensure the kernel headers version used in the custom external toolchain,

We do not care about the patch-level, since headers are not supposed to

those are actually the ones we do care about; we treat all 2.6.x kernels
as being a single version, since we do not support any 2.6 kernels for

c64f948d2c toolchain: introduce a toolchain knob for NPTL
As our architecture support expands to a number of architectures that
do not implement NPTL threading, and the number of packages that
depend on NPTL specific features, it has become necessary to be able
to know whether the toolchain has NPTL support or not.

This commit adds a new BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_NPTL hidden Config.in
option that allows packages to know whether NPTL is available or not.

This hidden option is:

 * Automatically enabled when glibc/eglibc or musl toolchains are
   used, either internal or external.

 * Automatically enabled when an internal uClibc toolchain with NPTL
   support is configured. It is left disabled otherwise for internal
   uClibc toolchains.

 * Configured according to a visible Config.in option for custom
   external uClibc toolchains.

This commit makes the dependency from the target toolchain explicit.
This way we can buid from command line a package that use
inner-generic-package right after the configuration phase, example:

	make clean <package-name>

Also remove TARGETS_ALL because the only purpose was to add toolchain
dependency so it's superseded by this commit.

To prevent circular dependency add the new variable
<pkgname>_ADD_TOOLCHAIN_DEPENDENCY to avoid adding the toolchain
dependency for toolchain packages.

This is also a step forward supporting top-level parallel make.

In order to keep better track of when a feature got deprecated, and hence
when it can be removed, a new set of symbols BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx is
introduced. These symbols are automatically selected when BR2_DEPRECATED is
selected, and thus are transparent to the user.
A deprecated feature will no longer depend on BR2_DEPRECATED directly, but
rather on the appropriate BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx. If that symbol does
not yet exist, it has to be created in Config.in.
When removing a deprecated feature, one should also check whether this was
the last feature using the BR2_DEPRECATED_SINCE_xxxx_xx symbol, in which
case the latter can be removed from Config.in.

A followup patch will make sure the overview is added to the list of
deprecated features in the manual, so that a buildroot core developer can
easily determine which features to remove in a given development cycle.

2c1dc32647 toolchain/external: fix wrapper by not passing conflicting flags
In our wrapper, we forcibly add the -march=, -mcpu= and-mtune= flags
to the actual compiler, this in an attempt to always generate correct
and optimised code for the target.

But in some cases, the caller knows better than we do, and passes its
own set, or subset of those flags. In this case, some may conflict with
the ones we pass. The most prominent offender being the Linux kernel.

For example, on the ARM Raspberry Pi, the Linux kernel will set the
-march=armv6 flag and no -mcpu= flag, but we pass -mcpu=arm1176jzf-s,
which conflicts:

    drivers/scsi/scsi_trace.c:1:0: warning: switch -mcpu=arm1176jzf-s
    conflicts with -march=armv6 switch

(and so for all the files the kernel compiles, pretty messy)
(note: arm1176jzf-s is not an armv6, it is an armv6zk. Yeah...)

To avoid this situation, we scan our commandline for any occurence of
the possibly conflicting flags. If none is found, then we add our owns.
If any is found, then we don't add any of our owns.

The idea behind this is that we trust the caller to know better than
we do what it is doing. Since the biggest, and sole so far, offender
is the Linux kernel, then this is a rather safe bet.

89be0985d6 toolchain-external: mark Microblaze external toolchains as deprecated
The Xilinx Microblaze external toolchains that we had support for are
very old, and are causing a huge number of build issues. Thanks to
Spenser Gilliland, we now have support for Microblaze in the internal
toolchain backend, and the autobuilders have been using the internal
toolchain backend since then. Therefore, it's time to deprecate those
old and unusable external toolchains.

This commit adds the support for the recently release Sourcery MIPS
2013.11 toolchain (gcc 4.8, gdb 7.6, glibc 2.18), and consequently
removes the support for the Sourcery MIPS 2012.03 toolchain.

While we're at it, also fix the incorrect help text related to the
MIPS64 multilib selection.

(e)glibc doesn't support a fully statically linked userspace. Even a
basic program such as Busybox fails to do authentication due to glibc
loading some libraries dynamically. Therefore, we disable the
possibility of using a (e)glibc toolchain when
BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB=y.

646bd86908 toolchain-external: factorize regular expressions
Based on a suggestion from Peter, this commit factorizes the logic and
regular expressions that are used to find the sysroot and libdir for a
given compiler. It reduces a bit the duplication of code, and
centralizes the most bizarre part of this logic in one place.
