binutils: Package libdep linker plugins

2021-02-03T21:45:49+00:00

this is new plugin added in binutils 2.36 (From OE-Core rev: dddd261bab4b371ae97bcf4b954359297d615f83) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Install PIC version of libiberty.a

2020-04-26T13:00:51+00:00

some architectures e.g. mips complain in linking apps which have shared libs that are linking with libiberty.a fixes errors like below libiberty/../../libiberty/hashtab.c:285:(.text+0xf8): relocation R_MIPS_26 against `htab_create_typed_alloc' cannot be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC (From OE-Core rev: 49eacd44ff65b524c02ab93401dc97745d28415f) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Use configure options to disable gdb and dependencies

2020-04-05T10:46:38+00:00

Deleting sources is a rough way of dealing with disabling components, using configure option is elegant way and we also keep the sources unchanged, this should not cause any funcitonal changes otherwise (From OE-Core rev: 1921711c9e7a915dbf04c3909bee39450c907845) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Do not build gold linker on mips/glibc

2020-04-02T14:24:59+00:00

Using gnu_hash style is unsupported on gold for now therefore disable building gold on mips/glibc Certain applications poke for presence of gold linker and silently use it (webkit), therefore its best to disable building it (From OE-Core rev: b1b98ed4fafa9d37f71cbfe18f7a00ce2643449e) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Pregenerate autoconf files

2020-03-30T11:33:29+00:00

libtool patch will result in configure file regeneration, instead of doing that at build time, do it in patch itself, this avoids running autoconf before configure step. Since binutils needs specific version of autoconf ( which is 2.69 ) this will break on systems using newer or older verisons of autoconf in current state.

binutils: fix multilib header difference

2020-02-29T13:04:48+00:00

bfd_stdint.h encodes the name of the compiler in the header which is different between mutlilibs. Remvoe target prefix to make the headers match. (From OE-Core rev: 62cd67ac4ca39edac3c57f648669f1427b6fe7dd) Signed-off-by: Jeremy A. Puhlman Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Fix x86_64 override usage

2020-02-22T23:57:27+00:00

This override was applying to binutils-native meaning it would behave differently depending upon the host it was building on. This is not a good idea and we have tests to detect it which failed: oe-selftest -r sstatetests.SStateTests.test_sstate_32_64_same_hash binutils-native already enables all targets so we can avoid issues by not setting this option in the native case.

binutils: Upgrade to 2.34 release

2020-02-22T23:57:27+00:00

Details of changelog [1] Removing bfd/ld patch to enable PE targets, instead use specific emulations via --enable-targets for x86_64 Re-arrange/forward-port patches and upgrade libctf configure to libtool 2.4 patch rpaths are no longer emitted into elfedit/readelf therefore no need of chrpath anymore Instead of pre-generating configure scripts and house them in libtool patch, generate them during configure. This also ensures that we do not patch configure directly but rather the sources which generate it Package newly added libctf library [1] https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2020-02/msg00000.html (From OE-Core rev: 82f7d5cfc2ab02f39b69c0f8697d660936422d4a) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Cc: Christopher Clark Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: Bail out if gold is used on 32/64 bit RISC-V

2020-02-14T13:07:23+00:00

gold is not supporting risc-v yet and, this will cause subltle errors during build e.g. autoconf not finding certain features like visibility and it could take a while to unwind the problem. Its better to error out early Remove dwp and ld.gold for rv32 as well (From OE-Core rev: 5ee10b10b3316a368cea73df470befd587ef1cd0) Signed-off-by: Khem Raj Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

binutils: fix symlinks

2018-10-09T18:04:02+00:00

For nativesdk, symlinks created by do_install contain ${SDKPATHNATIVE}. This is a problem with SDKs that include nativesdk-binutils and nativesdk-gcc. When extracting such an SDK dangling symlinks are created, because relocate_sdk.py does not adjust symlinks. As a result gcc ends up calling the host binutils. Use the os.path.relpath function to obtain shorter relative paths, which do not contain ${SDKPATHNATIVE}.
