Subject: toolchain: add support of ARC architecture
X-Git-Tag: reboot~1587
X-Git-Url: http://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fchunkeey.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=8b5d644bb36846660e1fa20d38361fec12a14b28

toolchain: add support of ARC architecture

This includes binutils, gcc, gdb and uClibc-ng.

Latest release of ARC gcc (as of today it is "arc-2015.06")
is based on upstream gcc 4.8.4.

Sources are available on GitHub, see:
https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/gcc

Latest release of ARC binutils (as of today it is "arc-2015.06")
is based on upstream binutils 2.23.

Sources are available on GitHub, see:
https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/binutils-gdb/releases/tag/arc-2015.06

Latest release of ARC GDB (as of today this is "arc-2015.06-gdb")
is based on upstream gdb 7.9.1.

Sources are available on GitHub, see:
https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/binutils-gdb/releases/tag/arc-2015.06-gdb

Note that for binutils and gdb that come from unified git repository
(which is the case for upstream binutils/gdb today) we need to disable
building of gdb in binutils and binutils in gdb hence in binutils:
------>8------
--disable-sim
--disable-gdb
------>8------

and in gdb:
------>8------
--disable-binutils
--disable-ld
--disable-gas
------>8------

Also in gdb we disable sim because if the following breakage while
building with it:
------------>8------------
/usr/bin/env bash ./../common/genmloop.sh -shell /usr/bin/env bash \
        -mono -fast -pbb -switch sem5-switch.c \
        -cpu a5f -infile ./mloop5.in \
        -outfile-suffix 5
unknown option: bash
Makefile:699: recipe for target 'stamp-5mloop' failed
make[7]: *** [stamp-5mloop] Error 1
------------>8------------

+
+	This patch brings over a few features from MirBSD:
+	* -fhonour-copts
+	  If this option is not given, it's warned (depending
+	  on environment variables). This is to catch errors
+	  of misbuilt packages which override CFLAGS themselves.
+	* -Werror-maybe-reset
+	  Has the effect of -Wno-error if GCC_NO_WERROR is
+	  set and not '0', a no-operation otherwise. This is
+	  to be able to use -Werror in "make" but prevent
+	  GNU autoconf generated configure scripts from
+	  freaking out.
+	* Make -fno-strict-aliasing and -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks
+	  the default for -O2/-Os, because they trigger gcc bugs
+	  and can delete code with security implications.
+
+	This patch was authored by Thorsten Glaser <tg at mirbsd.de>
+	with copyright assignment to the FSF in effect.
