Yann E. MORIN" 74d555b2c3 scripts: add support for building manuals
Add support for building the HTML and PDF manuals for the major
components.  Implement for binutils, GCC, GDB, and GLIBC.

Always build all manuals and install a subset.  Be explicit about the
subset to reduce the clutter and to avoid getting copies of common
manuals like bfd from all of the sourceware based components.  Downside of
being explicit is that you need to update it when a new component
comes along.

Build the manuals as part of the last GCC build, namely 'cc' for glibc
based ones and cc_core_pass_2 for baremetal.

An example of the output is at:

# Options related to paths and install
comment "Paths"
config LOCAL_TARBALLS_DIR
string
prompt "Local tarballs directory" if ! BACKEND
default ""
help
If you have previously downloaded the tarballs, enter the PATH where
you stored them here.
config SAVE_TARBALLS
bool
prompt "Save new tarballs" if ! BACKEND
depends on LOCAL_TARBALLS_DIR != "" || BACKEND
default y if BACKEND
help
If you say 'y' here, new downloaded tarballs will be saved in the
directory you entered above.
config WORK_DIR
string
prompt "Working directory" if ! BACKEND
default "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build"
help
Set this to the directory where all build actions will be done.
The default is "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build", and leaving this option
empty will also use the default.
You should not need to change that, except in one very peculiar
setup:
- your crosstool-NG source directory is on the network
- you configured crosstool-NG with --local
This kind of setup is a pain, as any action involving source file
access would have to go through the wire. In this case, you should
set CT_WORK_DIR to point to a path local to your machine, to avoid
any network overhead.
Do *NOT* change it if you don't know better.
config PREFIX_DIR
string
prompt "Prefix directory" if ! BACKEND
default "${HOME}/x-tools/${CT_TARGET}"
help
This is the path the toolchain will run from.
config INSTALL_DIR
string
# prompt "Install directory"
default "${CT_PREFIX_DIR}"
# help
# This is the path the toolchain will be installed into.
#
# Normally, you would set this to ${CT_PREFIX_DIR}, but if for some reasons
# you can't write there, you can install somewhere else and have a third
# person do the install for you.
# The reason you might also want to install elsewhere is if you are going
# to package your shinny new toolchain for distribution.
config RM_RF_PREFIX_DIR
bool
prompt "| Remove the prefix dir prior to building"
default y
depends on !BACKEND
help
If you say 'y' here, then PREFIX_DIR (above) will be eradicated
prior to the toolchain is built.
This can be useful when you are trying different settings (due
to build failures or feature tests). In this case, to avoid using
a potentially broken previous toolchain, the install location is
removed, to start afresh.
On the other hand, if you are building a final toolchain, and install
it into a directory with pre-install, unrelated programs, it would be
damageable to remove that directory. In this case, you may want to
say 'n' here.
Note that when acting as a backend, this option is not available, and
is forced to 'n'.
config REMOVE_DOCS
bool
prompt "Remove documentation"
default y
help
Remove the installed documentation (man and info pages).
Gains around 8MiB for a uClibc-based, C and C++ compiler.
config BUILD_MANUALS
bool
prompt "Build the manuals"
depends on ! REMOVE_DOCS
help
Build the PDF and HTML manuals for the main components such as
binutils, GCC, GDB, and the C library.
config INSTALL_DIR_RO
bool
prompt "Render the toolchain read-only"
default y
help
Render the directory of the toolchain (and its sub-directories)
read-only.
Useful for toolchains destined for production.
config STRIP_ALL_TOOLCHAIN_EXECUTABLES
bool
prompt "Strip all toolchain executables"
default y
help
All build host executables contain a lot of unnecessary info.
By stripping all executables it slightly speeds up the compilation
of large projects.
NOTE: It does NOT strip the target libraries, only HOST executables
