* Introduce multiarch DISTRO_FEATUREJulian Pidancet2011-11-291-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch introduces a distro feature which enables gcc to produce both 32bit and 64bit code, and enables binutils to operate on both 32bit and 64bit binaries. It differs from multilib toolchains in that it does not require to compile a version of the libc for each architecture variant. However, the code produced for the secondary architecture will not be linkable against the libc. v2: - Renamed the feature name from "biarch" to "multiarch". The GCC installation manual claims that the mips-linux can be made a tri-arch compiler (http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html) - For x86_64, the compiler is made bi-arch by default, so nothing has to be done in particular. - I analyzed the gcc/config.gcc from GCC sources and added in this patch all the architectures that could be made biarch with the version of gcc currently used in OE, which are powerpc, and sparc, in addition to x86. mips and s390 will probably be supported in future versions of gcc. For x86 and sparc, only the --enable-targets=all option is valid to make this work (this option doesn't have any other side effects than making the compiler bi-arch). For powerpc, I used the --enable-targets=powerpc64 option (although 'all' also works). Note: - Untested on powerpc and sparc. But I believe it works the same as with x86. - gcc in meta-toolchain is also made multiarch.

* gcc/binutils: Disable NLS/gettext dependenciesRichard Purdie2011-10-101-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We force the C locale when running builds for determinstic error messages. We therefore have no need to NLS support in binutils cross or gcc cross. We also don't need the standard base/autotools dependencies for our toolchain components since we don't autoreconf these. This patch turns off nls and cleans up some of the dependencies resulting in a slightly less convoluted set of build dependencies.

* binutils: allow distro to select gold as default linkerPhil Blundell2011-06-301-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | But ensure that gcc-cross-intermediate always uses ld.bfd since (e)glibc won't build with gold. (From OE-Core rev: 207a9013670560d62c793a66f01e19f4760a71a8) Signed-off-by: Phil Blundell <philb@gnu.org> Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>

* binutils: Update the poison patchMark Hatle2010-10-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | [BUGID #374] Previously the poison directories patch was present, but not enabled due to the lack of the configure option being set, and also the fact configure itself was not being patched. Signed-off-by: Mark Hatle <mark.hatle@windriver.com>
* Major layout change to the packages directoryRichard Purdie2010-08-271-0/+25
Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.
