* support/download: add explicit no-hash supportYann E. MORIN2015-04-031-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support to explicitly state that an archive has no hash. This can be used for archives downloaded from a repository, like a git-clone or a subversion checkout, or using the github helper. This will come in handy when we'll eventually make hashes mandatory as soon as a .hash file exists: for some packages, like gcc, some versions are downloaded as archives from upstream, while other versions may come from a GitHub repository (via the github herlper). In this case, a .hash file would exist, that contains hashes for the downloaded tarballs, but archives downloaded from the repository would not have a hash (since it is currently not possible to have reproducible such archives). So, we'd need a way to explicitly state there is no hash, on purpose, for those archives. So, add 'none' as a new type of hash. Signed-off-by: "Yann E.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | When downloading from a repository, we have no way to ensure the reproducibility of the generated archives, so we can't check the hashes.

This allows to match with what the current code is doing. - It updates the description of <pkg>_EXTRA_DOWNLOADS to also indicate that full URLs are now accepted, following the change made in the previous commit.

* Rename BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBSThomas Petazzoni2014-12-112-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since a while, the semantic of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB has been changed from "prefer static libraries when possible" to "use only static libraries". The former semantic didn't make much sense, since the user had absolutely no control/idea of which package would use static libraries, and which packages would not. Therefore, for quite some time, we have been starting to enforce that BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB should really build everything with static libraries. As a consequence, this patch renames BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS, and adjust the Config.in option accordingly. This also helps preparing the addition of other options to select shared, shared+static or just static. Note that we have verified that this commit can be reproduced by simply doing a global rename of BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to BR2_STATIC_LIBS plus adding BR2_PREFER_STATIC_LIB to Config.in.legacy.
