ARC: switch to RC1 of upcoming arc-2015.06 tools
PATCH 1/1 ARC: switch to RC1 of upcoming arc-2015.06 tools
Even though this is only RC1 it's been heavily used internally so it should not be any worse than existing arc-2014.12.
Moreover this relase (and so its RC1) finally delivers support of NPTL for ARC in uClibc.
That's why it would be good to allow interested users to start trying it (for example WebKit and apps that use WebKit could be successfully built and run) also it will be helpful to run that new toolchain through autobuilder in attempt to find any hidden regressions so we have a solid toolchain for release.
If there's an interest in that patch more patches will follow with subsequent RCs and essentially on appearence or relese Buildroot will be updated with it.

Is there any reason uClibc-ng 1.0.3 can not be used as default? Do you have pending patches for ARC?

PATCH 1/1 ARC: switch to RC1 of upcoming arc-2015.06 tools
Hi Waldemar,
Quoted 2 lines · Waldemar Brodkorb
Is there any reason uClibc-ng 1.0.3 can not be used as default? Do you have pending patches for ARC?
Even thought there's no strong preference for us between uClibc and uClibc-ng the point is we've been using our GitHub uClibc repo (which is now a "mirror" of uClibc's git with a bit of a lag in updates - we do it manually from time to time) for all builds, i.e. we run regression tests and use for building everything uClibc but not uClibc -ng. And so we're pretty sure uClibc works for us.
I'm not saying that uClibc-ng is any worse, no. But for current release cycle we'll claim support of "vanilla" uClibc.
But I believe it's a good time now to discuss a possibility to switch to uClibc-ng for our following releases.
I'm explicitly adding Vineet in Cc who is our uClibc maintainer so he may add his 2 cents in that discussion.

Applied, thanks. I've also committed a patch that makes the ARC uClibc version the default version on ARC.
Best regards,
Thomas
