[Buildroot] [PATCH v4] toolchain-external: Commonize /lib/<tuple> symlinks

Matthew Fornero mfornero at mathworks.com
Fri May 20 17:52:05 UTC 2016


Commonize the creation of symlinks from {/usr}/lib to
{/usr}/lib/<tuple>.

These were originally defined on a per-toolchain basis for the Linaro
toolchains, but there is currently no support for creating symlinks
for custom toolchains that may have been based on Linaro (or older
versions of the Linaro toolchain).

Add common code for all supported Linaro toolchains and add a new
config option, BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_PREFIX_SYMLINK to enable custom
toolchains to enable the symbolic link creation.
