toolchain/binutils: backport stable patches

2023-03-01T22:44:57Z

Add the patches with real changes from the binutils 2.40 stable branch. I am not aware that we ran into any of these problems, but I think it is better to take the existing stable patches. They were exported like this: git format-patch binutils-2_40...origin/binutils-2_40-branch I removed the patches changing the version numbers and updating the translations only. I removed the following patches: *Automatic-date-updat* 001-Re-enable-development.-Update-version-to-2.40.0.patch 004-Updated-translations-for-the-gas-and-binutils-sub-di.patch 015-Updated-Swedish-translation-for-the-binutils-sub-dir.patch 027-Updated-Swedish-translation-for-the-binutils-sub-dir.patch Signed-off-by: Hauke Mehrtens

toolchain: remove installing twice in the "initial" subdir

2023-02-19T18:44:39Z

This was apparently introduced to recreate the toolchain (wipe staging_dir/toolchain*, but keep build_dir/toolchain*, followed by a `make toolchain/compile`). But it leaves leftovers and causes re-links to happen at src_install phase, because of the changed paths, possibly adding yet another source of issues. With the prior commits removing various hacks related to the "initial" folder we can remove installing it twice altogether. The recreated toolchain is exactly the same as before.

toolchain/binutils: get rid of outdated linaro version string hack

2023-02-19T18:44:39Z

This reverts commit 9d1b619cb1a7dd18cd12cab0d9f93452b10e2e11. No Linaro binutils are supported anymore, the leftover removal commit missed one line. Fixes: b648e1c0 "binutils: remove 2.25.1 support and leftovers of older versions" Signed-off-by: Andre Heider

toolchain/binutils: get rid of outdated libiberty hack

2023-02-19T18:44:39Z

This reverts commit 68fcb15f90edd92ef36990c5696b9e79df07a6ec. binutils syncs libiberty from gcc, which defaults to not installing itself since [0], see also [1]. That change is apparently part of binutils 2.24, and the oldest supported version here is 2.37, hence we can remove this hack.

toolchain/binutils: use explicit configure args

2023-02-09T01:53:31Z
