By default, recent versions of glibc and eglibc will build some functions that take format strings (eg. printf, syslog...) with run-time checks against some format string attacks. This is called a fortified build. Unfortunately, this fails somehow while building the instrumented version of syslog, with some kind of circular dependency... Disable fortified builds by default, and hide the enabling option behind EXPERIMENTAL for daring users... Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr>

Some architectures need to set options in the file configparms.
|

This is the case for sh3/4, which really need to set configparms
|

to "no-z-defs=yes" as of gcc-3.4/glibc-2.3.2.
|

Unless you are building a toolchain for sh3/4, you should leave that empty.

If you say 'y' here, then glibc will be using fortified versions
|
|
of functions with format arguments (eg. vsyslog, printf...), and
|
|
do a sanity check on the format at runtime, to avoid some of the
|
|
common format string attacks.
|
|
|
|
This is currently not supported, and will most probably result in
|
|
a broken build, with an error message like:
|
|
../misc/syslog.c: In function '__vsyslog_chk':
|
|
../misc/syslog.c:123: sorry, unimplemented: inlining failed in
|

call to 'syslog': function body not available

If you are brave enough and want to debug the issue, then say 'y'

here. Otherwise, be still and say 'n' (the default). ;-)

The issue seems to be related to building NPTL on old versions

This will inclde legacy compatibility code for older kernels in

the C library, thus ensuring that it will run on a large number
|
|
of old kernels.
|
|
|

The minimum kernel version supported will be dependent upon the

target you build for. For example:
|

alpha*-*-linux-gnu Requires Linux 2.6.9 for NPTL

Normaly, you'll want glibc/eglibc to run against the same kernel
|
|
version as the one used for the headers.
|
|
|

This is the default.
|
|
|

If enabled, crosstool-ng will use the chosen version of kernel
|
|
headers for the glibc minimum kernel version supported, which is
|
|
what gets passed to "--enable-kernel=" when configuring glibc.
|
|
|
|
Enabling this will ensure that no legacy compatibility code for
|
|
older kernels is built into your C libraries, but it will
|
|
be unable to run on kernel versions older than whichever kernel
|
|
headers version you've built the toolchain for.
|
|
|
|
If you know for sure that your toolchain will never need to build
|
|
applications that will run under a kernel version older than your
|
|
chosen kernel headers version (CT_KERNEL_VERSION), you can choose
|

"y" here.

Specify the earliest Linux kernel version you want glibc to

script.
|

If you want to be able to statically link programs with your

toolchain's C library, make sure this kernel version is lower than

all kernels you wish to support to avoid "FATAL: kernel too old"

errors. The higher the version you specify, the less legacy code

will be built into libc.
