[Buildroot] [pull request] Pull request for branch ext-toolchain-fixes

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

Here is a patch set improving the support for external toolchains,
after testing with Buildroot x86-64 toolchain, Crosstool-NG x86-64
toolchain, MIPS and PowerPC CodeSourcery toolchains.

The MIPS CodeSourcery toolchain is not fully supported yet: it is a
very smart multilib toolchain, which supports both glibc and uclibc in
a single toolchain, with -muclibc being the gcc flag to switch to
uClibc. For the moment, only the default variant (glibc) is supported.

This patchset only touches toolchain/external-toolchain/ext-tool.mk,
except for a patch that is added to uClibc to fix fcntl64() on 64 bits
targets. This patch is already upstream in the master branch, and a
bug has been filled into the uClibc bug tracker to ask for this patch
to be merged into the 0.9.31 branch.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 01/10] ext-toolchains: take into account other Glibc dynamic loader variants

[Thomas Petazzoni]

External toolchains using Glibc have different names for the dynamic
loader. Some of them name it ld-linux.so.*, while some others (such as
the PowerPC and MIPS CodeSourcery toolchains) name it simply ld.so.*.

Therefore, we fix the glibc detection code to handle this case.

Can't we just readelf(1) the libc.so to get the dynamic linker name ?

[Buildroot] [PATCH 02/10] ext-toolchain: Fix ARCH_SYSROOT detection

[Thomas Petazzoni]

For the detection of the ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR (which contains the C
library variant specific to the compiler flags), we used to pass only
the -march argument instead of the full TARGET_CFLAGS. This was done
because TARGET_CFLAGS contains --sysroot, and we don't want to tell
here the compiler which sysroot to use, because we're specifically
asking the compiler where the *normal* arch sysroot directory is.

Unfortunately, there are some multilib variants that aren't decided
only based on -march, but also on -msoft-float or other compiler
flags. Therefore, we take the opposite approach: pass the full
TARGET_CFLAGS, from which we have stripped the --sysroot option.

For example, this allows a PowerPC CodeSourcery toolchain, on which
we're using the soft-float multilib variant, to work properly as an
external toolchain.

Hmm, in package/Makefile.in I see:

else ifeq ($(BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL),y)
TARGET_CFLAGS+=--sysroot $(STAGING_DIR)/
TARGET_CXXFLAGS=$(TARGET_CFLAGS)

E.G. no = between --sysroot and the value.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 03/10] external-toolchain: only copy existing directories of the sysroot

Instead of copying all directories in "etc lib sbin usr", check that
each of them exists before doing the copy. This is only to avoid an
harmless error message.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 04/10] external-toolchain: support 64 bits glibc toolchains

[Thomas Petazzoni]

On 64 bits glibc toolchains, the dynamic loader is named
ld-linux-x86-64.so and not simply ld-linux.so. So, adjust the
detection of the C library accordingly.

Using readelf(1) on libc.so would give us the exact name of the dynamic
linker ( but I'm just repeating myself here... :-) )

That's a good idea to investigate. I'll have a look at it, but I'd
prefer if this patch set could get merged as is, and have a look at

That holds true for crosstool-NG, but what if another toolchain has the
lib64 -> lib, but usr/lib64 is a directory (or the other way around) ?

I think that should be called unconditionally for 64-bit targets, but only
create missing .../lib (or .../lib64) as symlink to the other.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 07/10] external-toolchain: recognize uClibc 64 bits toolchains

[Thomas Petazzoni]

With uClibc 64 bits toolchain, the dynamic loader is named
ld64-uClibc.so.0 and not ld-uClibc.so.0. So, this commit adjust the
uClibc detection code for external toolchains.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 09/10] external-toolchain: handle libstdc++/libgcc_s for BR toolchains

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Most toolchains have their libraries either in /lib or /usr/lib
relative to their ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR. Buildroot toolchains, however,
have basic libraries in /lib, and libstdc++/libgcc_s in
/usr/<target-name>/lib(64).

[Buildroot] [PATCH 10/10] external-toolchain: hardcode the destination directory for a library

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Until now, the function copy_toolchain_lib_root was copying a given
library to the target filesystem by assuming that it should be at the
same place it was in the toolchain sysroot.

However, with Buildroot hiding libstdc++ in
/usr/<target-name>/lib(64), this isn't correct, and it is probably
safer not to rely on the toolchain organization anyway.

Therefore :

 * Instead of having a single EXTERNAL_LIBS variable, we now have
   LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS, which respectively
   list the libraries that should be copied to /lib and /usr/lib. As
   of today, only libstdc++ is part of the second list.

 * The copy_toolchain_lib_root takes another argument, which is the
   destination directory of the library, relative to $(TARGET_DIR)

[Buildroot] [pull request] Pull request for branch ext-toolchain-fixes

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello,

Here is a new version of my ext-toolchain-fixes branch, which fixes
the problem noted by Peter on the sysroot detection code.

We switch to --sysroot=/path/to instead of --sysroot /path/to, which
eases the filtering of this option, which is needed to find out the
original location of the toolchain sysroot.

Thanks,

Thomas
