ffmpeg: do not build on m68k coldfire
m68k coldfire causes ffmpeg to think atomic intrinsics are available,
so ffmpeg doesn't use its fallback on pthreads based atomic
operations. However, m68k coldfire doesn't provide properly working
sync 4 atomics, causing a build failure.
Since fixing ffmpeg on m68k coldfire is not really important (who
wants to use ffmpeg on such platform?), we simply disallow the
selection of ffmpeg on this platform.
Alternate approaches have been proposed in the past:
- Bernd Kuhls proposed in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/766909/
to add a dependency on BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SYNC_4, but this is wrong
because other architectures that lack sync 4 atomics, such as
Sparc, can build ffmpeg perfectly fine thanks to the pthreads based
fallback code.
- Waldemar Brodkorb proposed in
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/756664/ to add an explicit
option in ffmpeg configure to force the use of pthreads based
atomics. However, we believe that running ffmpeg on m68k coldfire
is such an unlikely use case that it isn't worth carrying a patch
for this.
