Alexey Neyman 2f286ce5ab Retire BACKEND stuff
... it is possible to just not set it in the configuration, why force
it? It just increases the complexity in Kconfig.

comment "Paths"
config LOCAL_TARBALLS_DIR
string
prompt "Local tarballs directory"
default "${HOME}/src"
help
If you have previously downloaded the tarballs, enter the PATH where
you stored them here.
config SAVE_TARBALLS
bool
prompt "Save new tarballs"
depends on LOCAL_TARBALLS_DIR != ""
default y
help
If you say 'y' here, new downloaded tarballs will be saved in the
directory you entered above.
config WORK_DIR
string
prompt "Working directory"
default "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build"
help
Set this to the directory where all build actions will be done.
The default is "${CT_TOP_DIR}/.build", and leaving this option
empty will also use the default.
You should not need to change that, except in one very peculiar
setup:
- your crosstool-NG source directory is on the network
- you configured crosstool-NG with --local
This kind of setup is a pain, as any action involving source file
access would have to go through the wire. In this case, you should
set CT_WORK_DIR to point to a path local to your machine, to avoid
any network overhead.
Do *NOT* change it if you don't know better.
config BUILD_TOP_DIR
string
default "${CT_WORK_DIR}/${CT_HOST:+HOST-${CT_HOST}/}${CT_TARGET}"
config PREFIX_DIR
string
prompt "Prefix directory"
default "${CT_PREFIX:-${HOME}/x-tools}/${CT_HOST:+HOST-${CT_HOST}/}${CT_TARGET}"
help
This is the path the toolchain will run from.
config RM_RF_PREFIX_DIR
bool
prompt "| Remove the prefix dir prior to building"
default y
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.
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 PREFIX_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_HOST_TOOLCHAIN_EXECUTABLES
bool
prompt "Strip host toolchain executables"
default y
help
All build host executables contain a lot of unnecessary info.
By stripping host executables it slightly speeds up the compilation
of large projects.
NOTE: It does NOT strip the target libraries, only HOST executables
config STRIP_TARGET_TOOLCHAIN_EXECUTABLES
bool
prompt "Strip target toolchain executables"
help
It means using install-strip target for GCC 4.6 or later.
An install-strip make target is provided that installs stripped
executables, and may install libraries with unneeded or debugging
sections stripped.
