I was unable to make the cross-ldd from uClibc to work, and
it is not possible to build it on non-POSIX system.
Besides, we have a generic script that is in the starting-blocks
to replace it, that will work for any C library, and also will
work on non-POSIX systems. Bonus!
When building a cross-compiler for a target which uses a file extension for
binaries the symbolic link to cc is not created correctly because the lookup
of the gcc binary is done in a incorrect path

GDB requires PDcurses instead of ncurses while running on Windows.
So, do not always compile ncurses in case GDB needs to build.
PDcurses is provided by an earlier build step and is not described in
this file.

Add the option to build a cross-compiler for kernel type 'mingw'.
The resulting cross-compiler can be used to build applications on a Linux host
that can be run on a Windows target.
Compiler is build using the mingwrt and w32-api packages aviable from the
MinGW project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw).
The windows headers (w32-api package) are extracting with the kernel_headers
step The libraries and other headers from both packages are build and
installed in the various steps of libc

glibc installs some bash-scripts, but uses the path to the buildtool
bash as interpreter (on the shebang line). This is only a symlink to
the real bash, and thus is not available at runtime.
Fix that by assuming that bash on the target *will* be /bin/bash.
In C, the proper syntax for a bit-wise OR is a single '|', not two.
It worked so far because all was well:
- X_OK == 1
- R_OK||X_OK == 1
- the file we searched for had the x-bit set
-> access( file, R_OK||X_OK ) worked
- inicidentally, the file we searched for also had the r-bit set,
but we were not testing that in fact.
Accept a local tarball name as the source of the Linux kernel headers,
rather than forcing the user to use either an upstream tarball, or a
local pre-installed headers tree.
Here, we implement a highly ugly hack. I'm not proud of that one...
To build the libstdc++ library, the compiler requires the C library. In
case we build for non-baremetal, this is normally handled by the final
step, later.
But in the case of bare-metal, we never go through the final step (because
it does not work, and it seems complex enough to make it work), so the
baremetal compilers are issued out of the core step.
A few facts:
- building the C library requires a proper core compiler
- core compiler is issued from one of the core passes
- the C library is required to build libstdc++
- newlib is only built for baremetal
- in bare metal, the final compiler is issued from one of the core passes
So we need to build the C library between core pass 1 and core pass 2.
The only place is eithe libc_headers() or libc_start_files(). The most
pertinent seems to be libc_start_files().
So we build newlib from libc_start_files(), and leave libc() empty.
static linking is not possible on MacOS, and unnessecary on other systems.
The old optimization and warning flags crash the gcc on MacOS
and (imho) are a bit overdone for this software.
This patch adds support for installing the gcc test suite. A helper
Makefile is provided for building and running the gcc tests.
The default configuration runs all gcc tests and requires automatic
ssh/scp login access to a networked target board. See README for
more details.
Note: Current feature is tested with the powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
sample but it should work with others as well.

The shell wrapper script uses a nonportable call to readlink.
Thus, always use the binary wrapper under BSD/MacOS.
yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr:
Use 'case' instead of 'if'.
On 64bit MacOS `gcc -dumpmachine` gives i686 for the host machine.
This conflicts with the expectations of some following configure scripts
that a 64bit x86 is given as x86_64; i686 is understood as a 32 bit machine.
config.guess sets the host machine in CT_BUILD correctly.
yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr:
As suggested by Khem RAJ on the ML, always use config.guess.
Call to get the directory mode depending on $CT_SYS_OS
yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr:
CT_SYS_OS has changed on Linuxsystem, it only gets the kernel name "Linux",
and not the system name, 'GNU/'.
The call to stat to find out if a file is a symlink works only on GNU systems,
and the replacing portable call to readlink is also shorter and more concise code.
yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr:
Apply simpler test, after discussion with author and Arnaud LACOMBE on the ML.
On non-GNU systems (BSD/MacOS) there is no uname -o.
Suppress the failure message on these systems in the
call to set CT_SYS_OS (uname -s actually sets this variable).
yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr: remove 'uname -o' altogether.

While compiling a canadian toolchain for host=mingw32, build=linux,
target=m68k-elf the build fails because in this step of the gcc build
the Host compiler is used in this stage with the build-flags for the
build system. This results in an error where the header <sys/wait.h>
cannot be found.
This problem happens at least in the GCC-4.3.x and GCC-4.4.x range.
This is solved by passing the proper compilers on the Make cmd-line

Insight seems to be very slow to follow up on mainstreram gdb.
Latest snapshots are more than 6 months old.
Moreover, I don't have time to maintain insight support in crosstool-NG;
and, because I don't use it, I am unable to find any breakage.
For uClibc, the name of the Blackfin architecture is 'bfin'. Actually,
the naming of the architecture is quite messy: for toolchain tuples
and uClibc, it's bfin, but for the kernel, it's blackfin. We've
arbitraly choosen to name it "blackfin" in Crosstool-NG.
Add Blackfin-related uClibc patch to fix a build failure related to
fork() being used in unistd/daemon.c.
Yann E. MORIN:
Apply the patch to the kernel/linux build script to use 'linux'
in the noMMU tuples. See:

Saving and restoring the steps requires saving/restoring multiple
directories. Depending on the configuration, some may not exist.
Add a wrapper that checks before creating/extracting the tarballs.
When building for bare-metal the core-gcc compiler is delivered
as final compiler, so the version info and bugurl is useful
in the core compiler as well.

- don't list samples in the main help screen
- improve the samples listing in list-samples
- don't document the 'config' action, it's long dead
- document the 'V' environment variable
- improve on START, STOP and PREFIX environment variables
- add PREFIX and V to autocomplete
- advertise auto-complete at install time
Curently, populate will iterate over all ELF (shared objects|executables)
to look for missing NEEDED DSOs, adding to the list at every iterations
of the search loop.
Instead of looking again at previously handled ELF files, recursively
resolve every ELf files.
Also, in case there are a whole lot of files (more than the shell can
accept as arguments list, or creating a command line longer than the
shell can cope with), use a temporary file with the list of files
to search for missing dependencies.
- it's a POSIX compliant shell script: drop bash, use /bin/sh
- fix help text
- use an absolute path for sysroot
- replace "echo" with "printf"
- replace "stat -c '%i'" with "ls -1id"
- replace "pushd / popd" with "cd / cd -"
- remove superfluous break
- bail out if required lib not found, except if forced
If a list-file is used, then each library in the file will be handled
twice (not a real issue, as the second iteration will find the library
already present, just avoid doing the job twice).
This fixes two problems:
- the sysroot might be in a sub-directory (think SYSROOT_DIR_PREFIX)
- it is not needed to have the target tuple to properly detect the sysroot
and the required tools
As a side effect, this script is now no longer dependent on the target
tuple, and in the future, we might be able to share it across many
toolchains (when/if we can install all of them in the same place).
Add a new command line option, "-r", which allows the user to specify
an alternate sysroot location to copy libraries from. This is useful
when using the toolchain in combination with a separate root filesystem,
or when working with multiple different root filesystems.

sstrip is now alone in its 'tools' menu, and we will probably never gain
any other 'tool'. Besides, sstrip is just strip, but a little bit more
agressive, so it deserves going to the 'binary utilities' menu.
The native 'tic' will _always_ be run on the build
machine, so no need to handle canadian/native/...
