The gnu-efi package was enabled on mips64el by commit11b347c03a("package/gnu-efi: add mips64el support"). However, it has been failing to build for a long time, and nobody bothered fixing it: gnu-efi-3.0.15//gnuefi/crt0-efi-mips64el.S:71: Error: cannot represent BFD_RELOC_16 relocation in this object file format Even reverting back to gnu-efi 3.0.10, which was the version used at the time of11b347c03a, does not fix the issue. We tested updating to the latest gnu-efi version, 3.0.17, and the problem still exists. Since EFI on MIPS is extremely niche, we don't really want to invest the time to fix this issue, so let's disable it again. If someone cares enough, it can be fixed and re-enabled.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
