2011-05-08external-toolchain: fix supportThomas Petazzoni
The recent commit adding the external toolchain wrapper has broken the support for external toolchain. The check_arm_eabi, check_cplusplus and check_cross_compiler_exists functions were using TARGET_CC, which points to the toolchain wrapper, but at the moment those functions are called, the wrapper hasn't been generated yet. We fix this by passing to these functions the path to the C or C++ compiler they should use for their tests.

2011-05-05Get rid of unneeded CFLAGSPeter Korsgaard
Now that we use a wrapper for external toolchains (and internal ones default to the correct setting), we no longer need to explicitly pass sysroot/march/mtune/mabi/floating point mode in TARGET_CFLAGS. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2011-05-05Add toolchain wrapper for external toolchainsPeter Korsgaard
Add a simple toolchain wrapper for external toolchains, which forces the correct sysroot/march/mtune/floating point options needed to use it with buildroot. With this in place the external toolchain behaves similar to the internal ones, and the special handling can be removed. This also means that the toolchain is usable outside buildroot without having to pass any special compiler flags. Also adjust the downloadable external toolchain support to install under HOST_DIR so it can be used after the temporary build files are removed. Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2010-12-23toolchain: fix again stamp file touchThomas Petazzoni
In e6633fd2e37d25f32958f30e852baa216ce1384a I did crap, and added a quietization inside a shell command, which was already quietized. This was stupid, and is fixed by this patch. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2010-12-23toolchain: add missing stamp file touch in external toolchainThomas Petazzoni
In the support of custom external toolchains, we forgot to touch the $(STAMP_DIR)/ext-toolchain-checked stamp file, which means that the toolchain was re-checked and re-installed at everyt build. At the same time, quietize a bit other stamp files touch. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2010-12-13toolchain: rework thread optionsThomas Petazzoni
The selection of linuxthreads, linuxthreads old or NPTL doesn't make a lot of sense for external toolchains. So, instead, we : * Introduce an hidden BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option, which must be selected by toolchain specific options when thread support is available. Package needing to test thread support should use this option. * Move the none/linuxthreads/linuxthreads old/NPTL selection to Buildroot internal toolchain configuration. * Add an option in external toolchain to tell if thread support is available or not in the external toolchain. We assume that glibc without threads is not possible, as Ulrich Drepper said in http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2005-08/msg00091.html ffmpeg, dmalloc and openvpn are fixed to use the new BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS option. For openvpn, --enable-threads=posix is no longer used, as the configure script doesn't even understand this option.

2010-12-13toolchain: remove toolchain-specific strippingThomas Petazzoni
We already handle the stripping of libraries in $(TARGET_DIR) at the global level, so there's no need to have toolchain-specific option and code for this.

2010-12-13toolchain: add support for external toolchain profiles and downloadThomas Petazzoni
Instead of letting the user define all the details of his external toolchain, we define a set of profiles for well-known external toolchains (CodeSourcery ones only at the moment, can easily be extended with other toolchains). Once a profile has been choosen, the user is offered the choice of either letting Buildroot download and install the external toolchain, or (as before) to tell Buildroot where the toolchain is installed on the system. We of course provide a "custom profile", through which the user can configure Buildroot to use a custom external toolchain for which no profile is available.

2010-12-08ccache: rework ccache managementThomas Petazzoni
* ccache is now a normal package (both for the host and the target). * ccache option is now part of the "Build options" menu. It will automatically build ccache for the host before building anything, and will use it to cache builds for both host compilations and target compilations. * bump ccache to 3.1.3 Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
2010-07-28toolchain: rename external toolchain dirYann E. MORIN
Rename the external toolchain directory. When new backends are here, it will be easier to sort them out if they are all prefixed the same way. Signed-off-by: Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr> Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard <jacmet@sunsite.dk>
