* tools/coreutils: update to 9.2Georgi Valkov2023-04-024-98/+148
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This resolves an error when building toolchain/musl on macOS due to improper hole-detection caused by a bug in macOS/APFS [1]. As long as we don't reconfigure, 001-m4.patch is not needed. If we keep it, it will force reconfigure the project, since m4 files are changed. This works, but may not be optimal, because the build should use files from coreutils/m4, but OpenWRT uses legacy files from staging_dir/host/share/aclocal [2]. backport a couple of upstream patches date: diagnose -f read errors copy: fix --reflink=auto to fallback in more cases [1] https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=61386 [2] https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/12233#issuecomment-1481097456 Co-developed-by: Michael Pratt <mcpratt@pm.me> Signed-off-by: Georgi Valkov <gvalkov@gmail.com>

* tools/automake: verbose variable compatibilityMichael Pratt2023-03-271-0/+59
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An old patch attempted to harmonize the way that both Openwrt and Automake uses the $(V) variable. However, it was reverted because of the side-effects. This method is more simple and just allows Automake to accept any string as part of the verbosity toggle, falling back to the default if null.

* tools: update elf.hMathew McBride2023-03-191-215/+1535
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenWrt contains a 2012 copy of glibc's elf.h, which predates the introduction of some newer architectures like Arm64 and RISC-V. Linux 5.13 introduced the "gen-hyprel" tool into the kernel compile (when virtualization/KVM is enabled) which requires EM_AARCH64 to be defined. arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/gen-hyprel.c: In function 'init_elf': arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/gen-hyprel.c:289:43: error: 'EM_AARCH64' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'EM_IA_64'? 289 | assert_eq(elf16toh(elf.ehdr->e_machine), EM_AARCH64, "%u"); | ^~~~~~~~~~ Update the copy of elf.h from the latest glibc to fix this.

* tools/libtool: bump to 2.4.6Eneas U de Queiroz2023-03-1310-326/+395
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This updates libtool to its current release, from 2015. Current patches were renumbered and given a description text. The fix in 160-passthrough-ssp.patch is no longer needed. A patch to speed up build was cherry-picked, and another openwrt specific patch was needed to not use quotes in $(SHELL), to acommodate our "SHELL=/usr/bin/env bash" usage. The already present call to ./bootstrap ensures that generated files are refreshed, so the patches are applied only to their sources. Also, that bootstrap call was adjusted to run at the appropriate time when QUILT=1. References below are relevant commits to upstream libtool regarding some of the changes to patches. This commit is being reapplied after previous revertion, and after some editing. The fix for the issue that prompted reverting is the parent of this commit.

* tools/libtool: fix hard-coded pathsSebastian Kemper2023-03-131-12/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libtoolize hardcodes some paths. This is fine when building libtool and then using it (for example in OpenWrt's buildroot). But when using an SDK the paths are most likely different. For example, when building util-linux within an SDK we're greeted with the following message: libtoolize: error: $pkgauxdir is not a directory: '/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host/share/libtool/build-aux' This is because staging_dir/host/bin/libtoolize contains the following hard-coded paths from when the SDK was built in the first place: prefix="/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host" datadir="/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host/share" pkgauxdir="/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host/share/libtool/build-aux" pkgltdldir="/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host/share/libtool" aclocaldir="/path/to/openwrt/staging_dir/host/share/aclocal" This commits updates 000-relocatable.patch to correct the paths, relative to "$STAGING_DIR_HOST".

* tools/autoconf: bump to 2.71Michael Pratt2023-03-134-128/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Autoconf release 2.71 is a bugfix release of 2.70 Links provided are the changelog of 2.70 [1] [2] and the announcement of 2.71 [3] The first patch needed to be rewritten. Some of the lines in the patch were moved to be consistent with the same change added upstream in other similar files. Second and third patches are no longer needed, Emacs can now be disabled at the configure stage, and support for musl was added upstream. The patch now causes help2man to be required for installing man pages, but we don't need them. There is no way to disable man pages build with the configure script, so use make to touch the files with the build target install-man1.

* Remove ccache wrappersPaul Fertser2023-03-053-14/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These wrappers are not needed as CC doesn't need to be a single word. a53b084e497a9f1629a2caada833ebe14a6838b7 which introduced the wrappers doesn't explain why they were really needed and why only for the target and not for the host. Moreover, name of the wrappers breaks a ccache assumption: since v4.0-3-g6a92b4cd3a67 it has special handling for "chained" invocation such as "ccache ccache gcc" where it skips all the "ccache*" names in the middle and proceeds to run as if it was started as "ccache gcc"[1][2]. This becomes important when a build system sees ccache in the PATH and automatically enables it by prepending to CC. An example of such a system would be autosetup as used by jimtcl. With the wrappers it breaks as the command line ends up being just "ccache -Os..." because "ccache_cc" gets skipped as it starts with "ccache".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 52167feff8ae3fbd02be22dfe6021e7e9c79c599. Fakeroot 1.30.1 broke building on certain hosts (32-bit archs). As of 2023-01-10, this was apparently fixed in source code, however, the version is still 1.30.1 (patch release), so the old binaries are removed from the repository and replaced, but the source provided by the repository remains the same. Furthermore, there are some complicated issues blocking the "testing" release from being bumped to a 1.30.x version. Considering all of this, it would likely be better for this package to follow the "testing" release instead of the "unstable" release, which is still 1.29-1, so revert to that.
