Hello all!
I'm pleased to announce the release of crosstool-NG 1.17.0!
Due to late core changes, and my being at the ELC-E and LinuxCon Europe
conferences this week, this release comes a bit later than usual. Sorry
about that... :-(
As usual, there has been quite a number of improvements, new features,
and bug fixes all around. Except for one very large new feature, this
release has been rather calm. The most notable changes are listed below:
- it is now possible to use local copies of most of the components:
binutils, elf2flt, gcc, gdb, newlib, uClibc, linux
support for glibc/eglibc local copies will be available in the next version
- a new architecture has been added as an experimental feature: microblaze
so far, it requires local copies of most components (binutils, gcc, and
glibc), but support is currently being pushed upstream to the corresponding
projects
- components have been updated to the latest version(s):
linux, gcc, newlib, gdb
- a new debug feature has been added, to spawn a shell with the current
environment, when a command fails, so user has a chance to try and fix
the issue without haviong to restart the complete build
- a bunch of bugs have been fixed here and there
To be noted, the samples now account for a much lower percentage of the
changes. This, thanks to the switch to using defconfigs for samples,
instead of full config files.
Also, I'm now using pathwork to manage the patches that are sent to the
list. For those interested, I'll detail my new workflow in a separate
message (as a reply to this one). Globally, I'm very happy to be using
patchwork, it has made things a bit easier to manage! :-)
This marks the beginning of the 1.17 maintenance branch, and the end of
the previous maintenance branch. As always, comments and suggestions
are most welcome!
