518923178c tools/cmake: disable cmake script debugger
Upstream commit a9a592f96e6498da302f8e968be1db0ad3c32123
("cmake: Add debugger") added a huge amount of code
in order to create a debugging feature for CMakeLists.txt
of other projects. This was added to CMake since 3.27.x.

Unforunately, this new debugger will not build on ARM systems
like arm-linux-gnueabihf (Raspberry Pi 4), and takes up
extra build time for something Openwrt doesn't need,
yet it was enabled by default. (Thanks Microsoft....)

Specifically, it's a failure to link to functions like
__atomic_store_8, __atomic_load_8, __atomic_fetch_add_8, etc.

Let's just disable it.

Someone who really needs this for developing can have CMake
with the debugger on their host machine or manually re-enable it here.

Changes from version 4.2.0 to version 4.2.1:
- Bug fixes (see <https://www.mpfr.org/mpfr-4.2.0/#fixed> and/or the
  ChangeLog file).
- Improved MPFR manual.
- Configure tests: replaced the test of the link with GMP, in order to
  avoid the use of a function without a prototype (Autoconf issue), as
  this is obsolescent in ISO C. The new test should be more robust.

58c19759e4 tools/pkgconf: update to 2.0.1
Changes from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1:
----------------------------

* The behavior of --modversion was largely reverted back to the traditional
  pkg-config behavior, but still operates on a solved dependency graph.

  The order of --modversion output is based on the dependency resolution
  queue which is passed to the solver, which itself generally maps to the
  order of the constrants provided on the command line.

* A new flag, --verbose, has been added.  When used with `--modversion`, it
  is possible to disambiguate which version belongs to which module:

    % pkgconf --modversion --verbose foo bar
    foo: 1.2.3
    bar: 1.3

Changes from 1.9.5 to 2.0.0:
----------------------------

* When flattening the dependency graph, retain the latest seen edges
  rather than the earliest.

* Fix a long-standing bug where the dependency resolution queue was
  evaluated in reverse.  This bug masked the aforementioned dependency
  flattening bug in many cases.

* Fix handling of --with-path, which was appending paths to the search
  list rather than prepending them as intended.

* Error when --modversion is requested with more than one package, as
  the output is ambiguous.

dfdaa3630b tools: mold: update to 2.1.0
v2.0.0:
- transition from AGPL to MIT
- Previously, mold could not produce an object file with more than 65520
  sections using the --relocatable option. Now the bug has been fixed.
- mold now interprets -undefined as a synonym for --undefined instead of
  -u ndefined. This seems inconsistent, as -ufoo is generally treated as
  -u foo (which is an alias for --undefined foo), but this is the behavior
  of the GNU linkers and LLVM lld, so we prioritize compatibility over
  consistency.
- -nopie is now handled as a synonym for --no-pie.
- [RISC-V] R_RISCV_SET_ULEB128 and R_RISCV_SUB_ULEB128 relocation types are
  now supported (4bffe26, 1ac5fe7)
- [PPC64] R_PPC64_REL32 relocation type is now supported. (ebd780e)

v2.1.0:

- Loongson's LoongArch CPU has been supported. (03b1a1c)
- -z nosectionheader has been added to eliminate section headers from the
  output file. (084ca55)
- Previously, linking with the -z pack-relative-relocs option produces an
  executable that glibc 2.38 refuses to run with DT_RELR without
  GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency error. Now, mold produces binaries compatible
  with glibc 2.38. (f467ad1)
- [ARM64] R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21_NC relocation type has been supported.
  (17a5c3e)
- [ARM64] R_AARCH64_MOVW_UABS_G3 relocation type has now been handled as a
  PLT-generating relocation to fix an issue when main is not defined in the
  main executable but rather in a .so file. (e764557)
- [RISC-V] We now merge input .riscv.attributes contents. Previously, we
  just concatenated them. (aa64491)

813ef01a27 tools/xz: update to 5.4.4
* liblzma and xzdec can now build against WASI SDK when threading
  support is disabled. xz and tests don't build yet.

* CMake:

    - Fixed a bug preventing other projects from including liblzma
      multiple times using find_package().

    - Don't create broken symlinks in Cygwin and MSYS2 unless
      supported by the environment. This prevented building for the
      default MSYS2 environment. The problem was introduced in
      xz 5.4.0.

* Documentation:

    - Small improvements to man pages.

    - Small improvements and typo fixes for liblzma API
      documentation.

* Tests:

    - Added a new section to INSTALL to describe basic test usage
      and address recent questions about building the tests when
      cross compiling.

    - Small fixes and improvements to the tests.

* Translations:

    - Fixed a mistake that caused one of the error messages to not
      be translated. This only affected versions 5.4.2 and 5.4.3.

    - Updated the Chinese (simplified), Croatian, Esperanto, German,
      Korean, Polish, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian, and
      Vietnamese translations.

    - Updated the German, Korean, Romanian, and Ukrainian man page
      translations.

tools: add mold, a modern linker
mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers.

A single binary is able to link various targets, which is why this lives
in tools/.

All toolchain builds then just need to copy the linker over, hence avoiding
multiple builds with the same outcome.

18238c4428 firmware-utils: ptgen: add SiFive-related GUID types
Add patch until it gets accepted in firmware-utils upstream.

The SiFive RISC-V SoCs use two special partition types in the boot process.
As a first step, the ZSBL (zero-stage bootloader) in the CPU looks for a
partition with a GUID of 5B193300-FC78-40CD-8002-E86C45580B47 to load the
first-stage bootloader - which in OpenWrt's case is an SPL image. The FSBL
(SPL) then looks for a partition with a GUID of
2E54B353-1271-4842-806F-E436D6AF6985 to load the SSBL which is usually an
u-boot.

With ptgen already supporting GPT partition creation, add the required GUID
types and name them accordingly to be invoked with the '-T <GPT partition
type>' parameter.

3636b06b2d tools/cpio: update to 2.14
Noteworthy changes in this release:

* New option --ignore-dirnlink

Valid in copy-out mode, it instructs cpio to ignore the actual number
of links reported for each directory member and always store 2
instead.

* Changes in --reproducible option

The --reproducible option implies --ignore-dirlink.  In other words,
it is equivalent to --ignore-devno --ignore-dirnlink --renumber-inodes.

* Use GNU ls algorithm for deciding timestamp format in -tv mode

* Bugfixes

** Fix cpio header verification.

** Fix handling of device numbers on copy out.

** Fix calculation of CRC in copy-out mode.

** Rewrite the fix for CVE-2015-1197.

** Fix combination of --create --append --directory.

** Fix appending to archives bigger than 2G.

tools/coreutils: bootstrap to local gnulib source
Using the local gnulib source during bootstrap
allows for fine-grained control over the macros
and source files for use with coreutils
but part of gnulib instead of coreutils,
without having to wait for a release
or deal with gnulib as a git submodule.

In this case, the execution of autotools
must be skipped by force.
Autoconf and Automake during bootstrap on coreutils
only works right when using directly checked-out source.

There is a symbol in gnulib, @GNULIB_TIME@
that is not yet defined in coreutils source,
so we use the backup of lib/time.in.h instead
of the one provided by gnulib source.

tools/gengetopt: override SUBDIRS variable with Makefile
Instead of editing the SUBDIRS variable with a patch,
it can be overriden at the end of the command line when invoking Make.

This tool has a series of recursive Makefiles in each subdirectory,
therefore SUBDIRS is set to a pattern of Make functions
so that the result is variable depending on the current subdirectory
that Make is being invoked in.

By eliminating the patch, autoreconf is no longer required.

tools/flex: override SUBDIRS variable with Makefile
Instead of editing the SUBDIRS variable with a patch,
it can be overriden at the end of the command line when invoking Make.

Skip the build for po files as well, which is causing a conflict
depending on the version of gettext detected, and macros present.

tools/automake: move file requirements to higher strictness
GNU standards requires certain files at the top-level directory
of a package that automake is used with, mostly documentation.

If one of these files happens to be missing, autoreconf would fail.

Move these file requirements to the more strict 'GNITS' setting.

tools/missing-macros: bump version of makeinfo alternative script
Some new releases of GNU tools are checking for a higher version
of makeinfo than what our scripted alternative shows
when working with checked-out sources instead of releases.

Since this is a "fake" makeinfo we can also just fake the version.

tools/missing-macros: prefer macros provided by gnulib source
These 7 macro files are provided by gnulib,
so we can now replace these statically stored copies
with the latest copy from GNU sources.

tools: add gnulib source
By having a local copy of gnulib, we can:
import the latest macro fixes into any package,
get rid of some statically stored macros that were otherwise missing,
bootstrap GNU tools with the latest relevant source
without having to wait for a release or rely on git submodules,
and possibly more...

The patch assists in bootstrapping by ignoring
the building of po files using gettext,
and also to allow a user-defined path to a program
to include parameters.
