PATCH 1/1 toolchain-external: update Linaro toolchains

Bump the ARM, ARMeb and AArch64 Linaro toolchains from 14.08 to 14.09. We can't bump to 14.10, because they completely changed the toolchains and they are now completely broken: they switched from Crosstool-NG to a new build tool to generate the toolchain, and now the sysroot handling is completely borked.

Do you have more details on this? If the new tool is causing problems for people then we need to address those.

Yes, I first complained on my G+ (I know, it's silly):
https://plus.google.com/101327154101389327284/posts/SjFkrX3ow5M. And I'm going to fill a bug to the Linaro bug tracker, I just created an account today.

Basically, the sysroot handling is not done correctly, so the toolchain is not relocatable: -print-sysroot and -print-file-name=libc.a return invalid values.

Just have a look at the INSTALL-sysroot.sh script inside the toolchain, it gives you an idea on how bad the toolchain is.

Best regards,

Thomas

Thanks, a bug would be really useful for tracking purposes.

I'll make sure it gets looked at...

Committed, thanks.

I see this also has libubsan, so we should probably look into handling -fsanitize / copy that library in the future.
