Yann E. MORIN" b17f8707c1 cc/gcc: add an option to enable/disable build of libssp

It can be usefull to have or miss, depends...

# Misc library-related options
config CC_GCC_ENABLE_TARGET_OPTSPACE
bool
prompt "Optimize gcc libs for size"
default y
help
Pass --enable-target-optspace to crossgcc's configure.
This will compile crossgcc's libs with -Os.
config CC_GCC_USE_GRAPHITE
bool
prompt "Enable GRAPHITE loop optimisations"
default y
depends on CC_GCC_HAS_GRAPHITE
select CC_GCC_USE_PPL_CLOOG
help
Enable the GRAPHITE loop optimsations.
This requires the PPL and CLooG companion libraries, and
those will be automatically build for you.
On some systems (eg. Cygwin), PPL and/or CLooG may not
build properly (yet), so you'll have to say 'N' here.
config CC_GCC_USE_LTO
bool
prompt "Enable LTO"
default y
depends on CC_GCC_HAS_LTO
select CC_GCC_USE_LIBELF
help
Enable the Link Time Optimisations.
This will require the libelf companion library, and it
wil be build automatically for you.
config CC_STATIC_LIBSTDCXX
bool
prompt "Link libstdc++ statically into the gcc binary"
default y
depends on CC_GCC_4_4_or_later
help
Newer gcc versions use the PPL library which is C++ code. Statically
linking libstdc++ increases the likeliness that the gcc binary will
run on machines other than the one which it was built on, without
having to worry about distributing the matching version of libstdc++
along with it.
config CC_GCC_LIBMUDFLAP
bool
prompt "Compile libmudflap"
default n
help
libmudflap is a pointer-use checking tool, which can detect
various mis-usages of pointers in C and (to some extents) C++.
You should say 'N' here, as libmduflap generates instrumented
code (thus it is a bit bigger and a bit slower) and requires
re-compilation and re-link, while it exists better run-time
alternatives (eg. DUMA, dmalloc...) that need neither re-
compilation nor re-link.
config CC_GCC_LIBGOMP
bool
prompt "Compile libgomp"
default n
help
libgomp is "the GNU implementation of the OpenMP Application Programming
Interface (API) for multi-platform shared-memory parallel programming in
C/C++ and Fortran". See:
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libgomp/
The default is 'N'. Say 'Y' if you need it, and report success/failure.
config CC_GCC_LIBSSP
bool
prompt "Compile libssp"
default n
help
libssp is the run-time Stack-Smashing Protection library.
The default is 'N'. Say 'Y' if you need it, and report success/failure.

config CC_CXA_ATEXIT
bool
prompt "Use __cxa_atexit"
default y
depends on ! BARE_METAL
help
If you get the missing symbol "__cxa_atexit" when building C++ programs,
you might want to try disabling this option.
config CC_GCC_DISABLE_PCH
bool
prompt "Do not build PCH"
default n
help
Say 'y' here to not use Pre-Compiled Headers in the resulting toolchain.
at the expense of speed when compiling C++ code.
For some configurations (most notably canadian?), PCH are broken, and
need to be disabled. Please see:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40974
config CC_GCC_SJLJ_EXCEPTIONS
tristate
prompt "Use sjlj for exceptions"
depends on ! BARE_METAL
default m
help
'sjlj' is short for setjmp/longjmp.
On some architectures, stack unwinding during exception handling
works perfectly well without using sjlj, while on some others,
use of sjlj is required for proper stack unwinding.
Option | sjlj use | Associated ./configure switch
---------+--------------------+--------------------------------
Y | forcibly used | --enable-sjlj-exceptions
M | auto | (none, ./configure decides)
N | forcibly not used | --disable-sjlj-exceptions
It should be safe to say 'M' or 'N'.
It can happen that ./configure is wrong in some cases. Known
case is for ARM big endian, where you should say 'N'.
config CC_GCC_LDBL_128
tristate
prompt "Enable 128-bit long doubles"
default m
depends on CC_GCC_4_2_or_later
help
Saying 'Y' will force gcc to use 128-bit wide long doubles
Saying 'N' will force gcc to use 64-bit wide long doubles
Saying 'M' will let gcc choose (default is 128-bit for
glibc >= 2.4, 64-bit otherwise)
If in doubt, keep the default, ie. 'M'.
