Fixes all over the tree and new features.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Infrastructure: Buildroot takes better care now of generating
|
|
|
- predictable permissions in the target filesystem. However,
|
|
|
- existing permissions on a custom skeleton or rootfs overlay
|
|
|
- will no longer be preserved. Therefore, it is necessary to
|
|
|
- add a permission table (BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE) to set
|
|
|
- the required permissions.
|
|
|
+ Architectures:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Refactor how the availability of an MMU is described.
|
|
|
+ - Minimal support for Cortex-M3
|
|
|
+ - Minimal support for AArch64 big-endian
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Toolchains:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Add CodeSourcery MIPS 2015.05, remove MIPS 2013.11
|
|
|
+ - Use uClibc-ng as the default uClibc version, instead of the
|
|
|
+ official uClibc, which hasn't done any release since 3+
|
|
|
+ years
|
|
|
+ - eglibc is now marked as deprecated
|
|
|
+ - GCC: gcc 4.9.x is now the default and was updated to 4.9.3,
|
|
|
+ support for gcc 5.x added.
|
|
|
+ - Binutils: use Binutils 2.24 as the default, 2.25.x series
|
|
|
+ bumped to 2.25.1, remove old Binutils 2.22.
|
|
|
+ - Update ARC toolchain components to 2015.06
|
|
|
+ - Add support for Fortran when building gcc
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Bootloaders:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Support for using the kconfig configuration system in
|
|
|
+ U-Boot
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ New Defconfigs:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - VIA VAB-820/AMOS-820
|
|
|
+ - OLimex OLinuxino A20 Lime
|
|
|
+ - Many new defconfigs for Atmel evaluation boards:
|
|
|
+ at91sam9rlek, at91sam9x5ek, sama5d3xek, sama5d4ek, sama5d4
|
|
|
+ Xplained Ultra, sama5d3 Xplained.
|
|
|
+ - ACME Systems Aria G25
|
|
|
+ - WarPboard
|
|
|
+ - Altera Cyclone 5 Development Board
|
|
|
+ - Xilinx zc706
|
|
|
+ - ARC AXS101 and AXS103 Software Development Platforms
|
|
|
+ - Significant updates to Raspberry Pi / Raspberry Pi 2
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Infrastructure:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Buildroot takes better care now of generating predictable
|
|
|
+ permissions in the target filesystem. However, existing
|
|
|
+ permissions on a custom skeleton or rootfs overlay will no
|
|
|
+ longer be preserved. Therefore, it is necessary to add a
|
|
|
+ permission table (BR2_ROOTFS_DEVICE_TABLE) to set the
|
|
|
+ required permissions.
|
|
|
+ - Add support for kconfig fragments.
|
|
|
+ - No longer pass --{enable,disable}-debug to autotools
|
|
|
+ packages depending on the value of
|
|
|
+ BR2_ENABLE_DEBUG. BR2_ENABLE_DEBUG now only controls
|
|
|
+ whether we build with -g or not.
|
|
|
+ - Support for extracting archives in .lzma in the generic
|
|
|
+ package infrastructure.
|
|
|
+ - Remove random-seed file from the default skeleton, since
|
|
|
+ seeding the entropy pool with a known seed makes more harm
|
|
|
+ than good.
|
|
|
+ - In the CVS download helper, add support to use a date as
|
|
|
+ the version.
|
|
|
+ - Add support for a per-package <pkg>_STRIP_COMPONENTS
|
|
|
+ variable, which packages can use to specify how many path
|
|
|
+ components should be stripped when extracting the tarball.
|
|
|
+ - Addition of a 'kernel-module' package infrastructure, which
|
|
|
+ simplifies the packaging of external kernel modules. Many
|
|
|
+ existing packages are converted to use it.
|
|
|
+ - Allow bootloaders to be implemented in $(BR2_EXTERNAL)
|
|
|
+ - Remove /etc/securetty from the default skeleton.
|
|
|
+ - Migration of sysV initscripts from the default skeleton to
|
|
|
+ a package called 'initscripts', installed only when Busbox
|
|
|
+ init or sysvinit are used.
|
|
|
+ - Migration of the skeleton logic to a proper 'skeleton'
|
|
|
+ package.
|
|
|
+ - Addition of a 'linux-tools' infrastructure in the 'linux'
|
|
|
+ package, to support building user-space tools bundled
|
|
|
+ within the Linux kernel sources, such as perf and cpupower.
|
|
|
+ - Usage of backticks instead of make $(shell ...) to execute
|
|
|
+ shell commands. This allows to delay the evaluation of such
|
|
|
+ commands when actually needed, and not when expanding the
|
|
|
+ variables. It is useful to make 'make printvars' less
|
|
|
+ noisy, and as a preparation to support top-level parallel
|
|
|
+ build.
|
|
|
+ - Libtool .la files are not mungled for all package types,
|
|
|
+ instead of being handled only for packages using the
|
|
|
+ autotools-package infrastructure.
|
|
|
+ - Add mechanism to allow packages to express a dependency on
|
|
|
+ gcc versions. This is needed for packages that use C++11 or
|
|
|
+ C11 support for example.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Important package updates:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Complete rework of the matchbox packaging
|
|
|
+ - Lots of fixes in packages for compatibility with musl and
|
|
|
+ gcc 5.
|
|
|
+ - Hash files added to a large number of packages.
|
|
|
+ - Update a significant number of packages to use a new
|
|
|
+ hosting, after the announcement of Google Code and
|
|
|
+ Gitorious closing.
|
|
|
+ - Major packages needed for SELinux support have been merged,
|
|
|
+ but the support is not complete yet.
|
|
|
+ - Significant update of OpenCV to version 3.0, and addition
|
|
|
+ of lots of eatures.
|
|
|
+ - Significant update of all packages supporting the GPU and
|
|
|
+ VPU of i.MX ARM processors.
|
|
|
+ - Addition of systemd support in a significant number of
|
|
|
+ packages.
|
|
|
+ - Qt5 updated to 5.5.0
|
|
|
+ - Use modular X.org server by default instead of KDrive
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Filesystems:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - Complete overhaul of the iso9660 support. Now allows to use
|
|
|
+ directly IS9660 as the root filesystem format and not only
|
|
|
+ an initrd, and supports Grub 2 and isolinux in addition to
|
|
|
+ Grub.
