grub2: force -fno-stack-protector in CFLAGS

2017-08-30T20:09:21+00:00

grub2 fails to configure when BR2_SSP_ALL is enabled, with the following configure error: checking whether -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables works... yes checking whether -fno-unwind-tables works... yes checking for target linking format... unknown configure: error: no suitable link format found This can be worked around by enforcing -fno-stack-protector in the package CFLAGS in a way that overrides the SSP flag, as is already done for the valgrind package. Fixes bug #10261. Signed-off-by: Erico Nunes Reported-by: Dr I J Ormshaw Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

grub2: move usage notes to package readme.txt

2017-07-16T13:25:27+00:00

As discussed in the mailing list, grub2 usage notes were growing too big for a Config.in documentation, and so it was agreed that a readme.txt in the package directory is a better place to put them. This commit simply moves the documentation as-is to preserve the original contents as they were in Config.in which can be worked on in further commits.

grub2: bump up version

2017-07-16T12:55:33+00:00

After many years since the last release and a long time with grub 2.02 in beta, there is finally a release and it brings many bug fixes and interesting features such as support for ARM. Patch boot/grub2/0001-remove-gets.patch doesn't seem to be required anymore as grub-core/gnulib/stdio.in.h has changed significantly since "053cfcd Import new gnulib." and has another treatment for gets. Patch boot/grub2/0002-grub-core-gettext-gettext.c-main_context-secondary_c.patch was a backport which is present after the bump and therefore is also no longer necessary. Since we're adding a Config.in comment, we also introduce a BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_ARCH_SUPPORTS hidden boolean, in order to avoid repeating the architecture dependencies. Signed-off-by: Erico Nunes Cc: Thomas Petazzoni [Thomas: add BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_ARCH_SUPPORTS, remove bogus dependencies on ARM and AArch64, since enabling Grub2 on those architectures is done in another commit.] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

grub2: install in $(HOST_DIR) instead of $(HOST_DIR)/usr

2017-07-05T14:06:47+00:00

grub2 builds for the target but installs with DESTDIR=$(HOST_DIR). Since we set prefix to /usr in TARGET_CONF_OPTS, this results in installing things in $(HOST_DIR)/usr. To make sure we don't install in $(HOST_DIR)/usr, override --prefix and --exec-prefix. Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

Globally replace $(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib with $(HOST_DIR)/lib

2017-07-05T13:20:05+00:00

Since things are no longer installed in $(HOST_DIR)/usr, the callers should also not refer to it. This is a mechanical change with git grep -l '$(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib' | xargs sed -i 's%$(HOST_DIR)/usr/lib%$(HOST_DIR)/lib%g' Signed-off-by: Arnout Vandecappelle (Essensium/Mind) Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

core: change the strip command from a choice to a boolean

2017-07-01T13:07:25+00:00

Curently, we have a choice to select between stripping and not stripping. This is legacy code from back when we had a third option, sstrip (super-strip). Since we removed sstrip, stripping or not stripping is now just a boolean rather than a choice. Make it so. We make BR2_STRIP_strip default to 'y' to keep the current behaviour of defaulting to stripping. Move BR2_STIP_none to legacy, and instruct the user to review the new setting. Drop any reference to BR2_STRIP_none in comments. Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" Cc: Arnout Vandecappelle Cc: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni

boot, package: use SPDX short identifier for GPLv3/GPLv3+

2017-04-01T13:17:59+00:00

We want to use SPDX identifier for license string as much as possible. SPDX short identifier for GPLv3/GPLv3+ is GPL-3.0/GPL-3.0+.

grub2: fix build with BR2_STRIP_none

2016-07-31T18:19:40+00:00

grub2 assumes the strip command will generate output and the output should always be stripped - so, just use the $(TARGET_CROSS)strip to make sure that the build succeeds regardless of the buildroot strip configuration.
