The toolchain-external logic is roughly:
- populate the staging dir by rsyncing the entire ${ARCH_LIB_DIR} and
usr/${ARCH_LIB_DIR} from sysroot.
- populate the target dir by explictly copying some libraries from sysroot
into target/lib and some other libraries in target/usr/lib, the split
being hardcoded into buildroot regardless of the location in the sysroot.
This means that a library libfoo could be located in:
staging/lib/libfoo.so
target/usr/lib/libfoo.so
When debugging an application that links against this library, gdb will
fruitlessly search for 'usr/lib/libfoo.so' in staging, and then suggest to
use 'set solib-search-path' which is a hack, really.
To solve the problem, we need to make sure that libraries from the toolchain
are installed in the same relative location in staging and target.
Achieve this by:
- replacing the convoluted search for libraries using for+find in sysroot
with a simple find in staging.
- determining DESTDIR for each library individually based on the location in
staging.
- treating LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS and USR_LIB_EXTERNAL_LIBS equivalently
These changes also allow for the removal of most arguments to
copy_toolchain_lib_root in the method itself and their callers.
Test procedure:
- set configuration for a given toolchain
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-before
- apply patch
- make clean toolchain
- find output/target | sort > /tmp/out-after
- diff -u /tmp/out-before /tmp/out-after
The only changes should be some libraries moving from lib to usr/lib or vice
versa. Notable examples being libstdc++ and libatomic.

[Thomas:
- use -L instead of -follow in the find invocation, as suggested by
Arnout.
- move the BR2_STATIC_LIBS condition as a make condition rather than
a shell condition, as suggested by Arnout.]

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 Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
