libc/glibc: move some options around

libc/glibc: get rid of the now obsolete CVS stuff

It's now been a while that glibc switched to git from cvs.
Get rid of cvs to download glibc; this will make for a good
cleanup before we add git support! :-)

libc/glibc: add 2.11 and 2.11.1

kernel/linux: remove legacy check

Now, we only support building with Linux >=2.6.27.
Get rid of the code that depended on <2.6.18.

binutils/elf2flt: activate elf2flt build

The code has been lying around inactivated for some time.
Let's enable it at last, and see if any one needs it.

debug/gdb: fix the space-damage

debug/gdb: do not expose the ncurses version in the menuconfig

Merge.

scripts/functions: inverse log level ALL and DEBUG

configure: do not require hg when configuring in an hg clone

When configuring in an hg clone, we need hg to compute the version string.
It can happen that users do not have Mercurial (eg. if they got a snapshot
rather that they did a full clone). In this case, we can still run, of
course, so simply fill the version string with a sufficiently explicit
value, that does not require hg. The date is a good candidate.

configure: silently ignore auto-stuff options --build --host and friends

libc/uClibc: rename patches for 0.9.30.2

debug/gdb: install ncurses in a temporary place

We only build the static ncurses, to be used to build the native gdb,
and it needs not be available for anyone but us. So install it into
a temporary place, and get rid of it once gdb is built.

debug/gdb: staticaly link to ncurses for the native gdb

libc/glibc: correctly handle dual-bitness archs

If the selected ARCH is dual-bitness (eg. supports 32- and 64-bit),

debug/strace: fix strace 4.5.19 to properly build with latest Linux kernels

Here's a couple of patches to get strace 4.5.19 to configure and build

enough while we wait for 4.5.20 to be released.

With the current strace-4.5.19 patches I failed to get the configure
script running even on my host environment. Also, when cross building
the configure script needs to look for the proper system headers to be
able to properly set HAVE_LINUX_NETLINK_H. Otherwise you get:

aria2 is a powerfull downloader that is capable of chunking and

Due to li;itations in crosstool-NG retrieval facilities, it's not possible
to take fully advantage of aria2. It might happen that, in the future,
those limitations get lifted away, so we can take use features such as
parallel downloading from more than one server at the same time. For now,
it should still speed up downloads thanks to parallel downloading of chunks.

1.5: update to 1.5.0+hg

Tagging release 1.5.1

1.5: update version to 1.5.1

arch/arm: add sample for nommu bare-metal Cortex-M3 with newlib

arch/arm: add THUMB interworking support

Add config option to build wtarget code with THUMB interworking.
This is used to build the C library as well as all other code
that runs on the target.

arch/arm: add THUMB mode config option

arch/arm: no need to check for the ABI option

The ABI option can not be set if EABI was selected,
so no need to check for it.

arch/arm: add support for noMMU

Some ARM cores do not have an MMU (eg. Cortex-Mx and Cortex-Rx series).
Thus, allow the user to configure out the MMU for ARM.

libc/newlib: allow using CVS snapshots

The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.

functions: allow using sub-dir of a module

Some projects' module (eg. newlib) are checked-out into a sudirectory
rather than into their own directory. Handle this case in the CT_GetCVS
function.

libc/newlib: allow using newlib with archs other than avr32

libc/newlib: fix namespace in config file

C library config options should be prefixed with 'LIBC_'.

libc/newlib: cleanup the build and finish steps

build step:
- ./configure
- remove glibc-specific options
- pass the target CFLAGS in the correct variable
- make:
- build in //

finish step:
- print proper message in finish step

libc/newlib: fix host/target confusion

newlib handles the build/host/target a bit differently as one would expect:
build : not used
host : the nachine that builds newlib
target : the machine on which newlib will run

debug/dmalloc: fix handling of threading model

config: add help for the MMU/noMMU entry

config/libc: move around hidden config options

This yields a cleaner .config file that is easier to read.

scripts/functions: Fix a variable name.

config/arch/arm: default to EABI

docs: adding naming conventions for crosstool-NG

docs: fix chapter spacing

version: update to 1.5.0+hg

Merge.

scripts: replace calls to svn with calls to hg in script to renumber patches

docs: get rid of any reference to the now long-gone svn repository

docs: move the "contributing" section to overview.txt

docs: configure no longer accepts --with-contrib

It's been a while that configure does not recognise --with-contrib.
Applying contibutions is to be done manually, using patch.

configure: force using the C locale to check messages

configure: fix --with-foo=/path/to/foo

When a required tool is specified with --with-foo, store the variable
in the list.

samples: fix the avr32-unknown-none sample

Bizarely enough, binutils-2.18 fails to build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/bash (although it has code to recognise bash and act accordingly).

Waht is really strange is that it does build when CONFIG_SHELL is set
to /bin/sh, *although* /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/bash. WTF?!?!

Tagging release 1.5.0

1.5: update version to 1.5.0

1.5: create maintenance branch for the 1.5 series

samples: update

libelf: add libelf-0.8.12

Merge.

configure: split has_or_abort in two: one to check, one to abort

Split the has_or_abort function in two:
- one that checks if the tool if found,
- one that calls the above check, and aborts if not found

The rational behind this is to be able to check for a tool
and if not found, fallback to using our bundled version,
should the need arise (and I get time).

Merge.

libc/glibc: don't use legacy snapshots

glibc snapshots have not been updated for about the
past 5 months. Consider them to be deprecated, now.

libc/glibc: remove dead code

The option to retrieve snapshots is already handled by
the generic 'specific date' and 'use latest' entries.
No need for a special case, as there's no code for it.

Merge.

debug/gdb: cleanup (remove) the static ncurses build

ncurses is built solely for the sake of building a native gdb.
The user should not rely on this library to build his/her userland,
but should rather build his/her own. So we remove it from the
sysroot after we successfully build the native gdb.

doc: update documentation, mostly eye-candy

sample: update the i686-nptl-linux-gnu sample

Update this sample, now it seems to correctly build again.

libc/eglibc: fix building for seemingly native toolchains

Build eglibc with -O2 as a fix/workaround to building
seemingly-native toolchains (see docs/overview.txt).

See:
- docs/overview.txt
- docs/known-issues.txt

samples: upgrade some samples

Upgrading all samples is too much a hassle.
Stick with those few for now.

samples: remove arm-beagle-linux-gnueabi

Use the generic arm-cortex_a8-linux-gnueabi sample instead.

Merge.

scripts: update config.guess and config.sub

readme: document patch description

gcc: ecjx.cc -> ecjx.o should use host compiler, not cross compiler

gcc: forward port gcc-4.4.0 patchset to 4.4.1

kernel/linux: update versions.

Insert an empty line bwetween added new versions.

debug/ltrace: fix build with /exotic/ linux-host OS

For ARM EABI hosts (ct-ng's target), the tupple ends in 'gnueabi'
For uClibc-based toolchains, the tuple ends in '-uclibc.*'
Make ltrace recognise those tuples as being the same as 'linux-gnu'

Merge.

samples: correclty fix saving samples with a C library config file

samples: fix uClibc config file location

comp-libs/cloog: fix building

For CLooG/PPL 0.15.3, the directory name was simply cloog-ppl.
For any later versions, the driectory name does have the version, such as
cloog-ppl-0.15.4.

config: fix indentation for options marked EXPERIMENTAL or OBSOLETE

Change the 2-space separation into a 1-space separation, for the sake
of homogeneity.

scripts: add new version at top of choice

Add new versions at the top of the choice menu, not at the bottom.

config: re-order menu entries so that latest versions are at the top

It makes better sense to have latest versions at the top of the choice
entries.

Merge.

samples: update

comp-libs/mpc: add latest 0.7 version.

comp-libs/cloog: new versions have the version number in the dir name

For CLooG/PPL 0.15.3, the directory name was simply cloog-ppl.
For any later versions, the driectory name does have the version, such as
cloog-ppl-0.15.4.

samples: fix saving samples

Use a correct sed pattern when setting CT_PREFIX_DIR

libc/eglibc: fix download

Fix the test to check if download is forced.

Merge.

kernel/linux: add latest versions

Add 2.6.27.33 as long-term stable, and 2.6.30.6 and 2.6.31.

gcc: add patch to fix EABI for armv4t

As pointed out by Martin GUY, gcc incorrectly generates armv5t
instrcutions for EABI, even for cores that are an armv4t.
The new patch (for the 4.3 series) fixes the problem by downgrading
the default CPU for EABI to being an armv4t core.

kconfig: allow stdin/stdout redirection

Allow stdin/stdout redirection for the CLI conf (not mconf).
This allows to recall a sample and automatically apply the defaults
to new configuration option, with something like the following:
yes "" |ct-ng "sample_name"

docs: add a tutorial on how to build a toolchain on Mac OS-X

Add a step-bystep tutorial to build a cross-toolchain on Mac OS-X.

companion libs: add latest CLooG/PPL versions

Add the latest 0.15.{4,5,6,7} CLoog/PPL.

samples: show the PPL, GLoog/ppl and MPC versions

When displaying a sample, do show the PPL, CLoog/ppl and MPC versions
