PATCH 1/1 extern-toolchain: Bump ARC tools to arc-2017.09-rc1

This commit bumps ARC prebuild toolchain to arc-2017.09-rc1

There might be subtle differences between uClibc configuration compared to Buildroot's one. Native RPC now is disabled because uClinc-ng has removed it.

This commit bumps ARC prebuild toolchain to arc-2017.09-rc1
There might be subtle differences between uClibc configuration compared to Buildroot's one. Native RPC now is disabled because uClinc-ng has removed it.

These two sentences are unrelated, right? I mean, Buildroot's uClibc hasn't had
RPC since April... So better make that two paragraphs.

Could you describe the subtle differences?

?These two sentences are unrelated, right? I mean, Buildroot's uClibc hasn't had RPC since April... So better make that two paragraphs.

Probably so.

?Could you describe the subtle differences?

Well we may do a full side-by-side comparison of uClibc's defconfigs but that barely makes a lot of sense. I mean we used to use some configuration which was formed as it was in years and not all choices I may justify and explain.

Still we're slowly drifting to Buildroot's uClibc defconfig with pretty much every our release but not yet there... and Buildroot's defconfig changes with time but we cannot change ours in the middle of development cycle.

Again we may do that comparison and identify all [meaningful] differences but not sure what it gives.

Well we used to have ARC prebuilt toolchain in autobuilder if I'm not mistaken. But due to some significant deviations from Buildroot defaults like missing IPv6 back in the day it got nuked. Maybe Thomas can remember it better... for some reason I cannot find any signs of ARC prebuilt tools in

But indeed we wanted to get some more testing for that pre-built toolchain and catch a couple of issues before cutting rc2 and final release.

It doesn't change that much. Since 2016.09, we added UCLIBC_HAS_WORDEXP and
UCLIBC_HAS_LIBINTL, nothing more.

Quoted 3 lines

Again we may do that comparison and identify all [meaningful] differences but not sure what it gives.

There are a few important ones, like ftw. Just do a log of
package/uclibc/uClibc-ng.config to see which ones were added over the years and why. If you don't have some of those, and this toolchain gets added to the autobuilders, you're going to get build failures because of those.

This is BTW the only predefined external toolchain with uClibc.

OK! But then please first do a diff of the uClibc configs to check if anything
important is missing.
