toolchain: Bump ARC tools to arc-2016.09-eng010

2016-08-31T07:32:29+00:00

As described at: 4520524ba055706236db9f00dd79f1b2e2e87fde this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools. This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng010. This engenering build contains different fixes done to TLS and PIE features. Appropriate custom patches are removed as they have been added to eng010. We still keep GDB as it is of arc-2016.03 release because there're some issues we'd like to resolve before releasing it to wider audience. So again note this is next engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for production builds.

binutils: disable warning flags to prevent build failures

2016-08-19T21:05:45+00:00

binutils-arc-2016.09-eng008 build fails sometimes. This happens due to the following issue: binutils configure script has CC variable that stores compiler for target and CC_FOR_BUILD variable that stores compiler for host. WARN_FLAGS are verified by the script to be compatible only with CC compiler but not with CC_FOR_BUILD compiler. Despite this WARN_FLAGS are passed to both CC and CC_FOR_BUILD compilers. This leads to unevident errors when cross-compiling. More information you can find in the binutils mailing list: https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2016-08/msg00117.html We are going to write a patch for bunutils that fixes the initial issue. Current patch contains temporary workaround. It should be deleted after real fix.

toolchain: Bump ARC tools to arc-2016.09-eng008

2016-08-11T13:07:06+00:00

As described at: 4520524ba055706236db9f00dd79f1b2e2e87fde this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools. This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng008. Main updates were made for gcc. It was switched to GCC 6 and to OSABI v4. Besides this patch fixes buildroot ARC failures connected to "crtbeginT.o" object file missing. This issue lead to two main errors: 1) "crtbeginT.o: No such file or directory", e. g. bootutils-1.0.0. No comments are required here I hope. 2) Errors like "compiler cannot create executables", e.g.: a) host-gcc-final-arc-2016.09-eng007 static build, b) aespipe-2.4c. That was caused because the test to determine if compiler is able to create executables was failing due to missing "crtbeginT.o" file. We still keep GDB as it is of arc-2016.03 release because there're some issues we'd like to resolve before releasing it to wider audience. So again note this is next engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for production builds.

toolchain: Bump ARC tools to arc-2016.09-eng007 and enable PIE

2016-08-01T20:59:31+00:00

As described at: 4520524ba055706236db9f00dd79f1b2e2e87fde this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools. This time we're updating tools to arc-2016.09-eng007 tag plus a couple of fixes on top of it that will all make its way in the next engineering build. We hope this patch will cure most buildroot ARC failures as it contains important fixes: 1) PIE fix. We have added PIE support to ARC toolchain at last. So that should prevent breakage of many packages. As ARC now supports PIE we remove ARC from BR2_TOOLCHAIN_SUPPORTS_PIE exclusion in toolchain/Config.in file. 2) Assembler fix. This patch also have changes that fixes frequent assembler failures, e.g.: http://autobuild.buildroot.net/results/543/5430b902d900943a34c1888e7e410bd5df367bc2// We still keep GDB as it is of arc-2016.03 release because there're some issues we'd like to resolve before releasing it to wider audience. So again note this is next engineering builds of arc-2016.09 series and it might have all kinds of breakages, please don't use it for production builds.

As described at: 4520524ba055706236db9f00dd79f1b2e2e87fde this commit continues a series of updates of ARC tools. This engineering build fixes the kernel dwarf stack unwinder feature for ARC targets.

binutils: fix build of 2.26 when makeinfo is not available

2016-07-05T13:04:29+00:00

The 2.26 binutils tarball has incorrect timestamps for the .info files, so binutils build system tries to regenerate them with makeinfo. In order to avoid depending on host-texinfo, we simply touch the .info files so that their timestamp is newer than the corresponding source files.

binutils: build host-texinfo if needed

2016-07-05T13:04:25+00:00

This commit adds the dependency on host-texinfo to binutils, when the source is fetched from Git. Thanks to this, we can remove the 0800-Docs-Prevent-build-failures-when-makeinfo-is-missing.patch patch from the ARC-specific version of binutils.
