Fix regression in Python build on 64 bits system

2011-08-29T20:44:53Z

Commit 009d8fceab4db7815502e4b0565fe0ef531d512c introduced --enable-shared --disable-static options for the host autotools packages, ultimately causing a regression on the host-python build, leading to a number of critical modules not being built on the target python on 64 bits system. Introduce a quick fix for the release and before a deeper fix. Signed-off-by: Maxime Ripard Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

toolchain/crosstool-NG: fix bundled config files

2011-08-28T07:43:21Z

Bundled config files have architecture-specific values in them, which may break if buildroot is configured with another architecture that does not forcibly set these option. For example, the bundled config files are for x86_64, and define: CT_ARCH_TUNE="generic" This comes from the BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE config option (in buildroot) that is set accordingly to the selected (arch,sub-arch). But if someone configures buildroot for, say, generic ARM, then the BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE config option is not set, and the crosstool-NG backend Makefile believes it should not be pushed down to the crosstool-NG config file. BUT... The crosstool-NG backend Makefile can not forcibly push BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE down to the CT-NG config file. If BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE is empty, the user can still set CT_ARCH_TUNE by running ctng-menuconfig. The backend Makefile already passes such values only if they are set. In the end, we can't push options as-is to the crosstool-NG config, but we MUST provide sane bundled config files, which this patch does. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard
