This patch updates the default toolchain used for runtime tests. The last time this toolchain was updated was in commit0207a653233 years ago. Since then, multiple things have changed: Firstly, it used uclibc-ng as the libc whereas since commit4057e36ca9, glibc is used as the default library. And secondly, since commit531b2a10cd, buildroot dropped the support for gcc 8 and it cannot be built internally anymore. So the testsuite was executed using a toolchain that can't be built by the Buildroot internal toolchain backend anymore. This new Bootlin toolchain stable 2022.08-1 is based on gcc 11.3.0, linux headers 4.9.327, glibc 2.35 and binutils 2.38. The previous toolchain bleeding edge 2018.11-1 is based on gcc 8.2.0, linux headers 4.14.80, uclibc 1.0.30 and binutils 2.31.1 Nowadays Bootlin toolchains are packaged in Buildroot and we can directly select them from BASIC_TOOLCHAIN_CONFIG and avoid setting the toolchain parameters (BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CUSTOM...). The switch to Glibc requires to update some tests for the following reasons: - TestPython3Py, TestPython3Pyc and TestPython3PyPyc has been updated since they use the libc binary file name in their test (uClibc: libc.so.1 vs Glibc: libc.so.6). - TestTmux needs at least one locale to pass (as stated in tmux help text "tmux needs a working UTF-8 locale"), so use "C.UTF-8". - TestOpenSsh needs a toolchain >= 5.x due to a openssh issue (Similar to: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=13671) Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide kernel headers 5.4 - TestShadow needs a toolchain >= 4.14 Use the Bootlin toolchain bleeding-edge 2022.08-1 rhat provide kernel headers 5.4 Runtime tested on the gcc farm server.

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.
