The copy_toolchain_sysroot helper in toolchain/helpers.mk performs an
rsync of various directories from the extracted external toolchain to the
corresponding directory in staging.
The relevant (simplified) snippet is:
for i in etc $${ARCH_LIB_DIR} sbin usr usr/$${ARCH_LIB_DIR}; do \
rsync -au --chmod=u=rwX,go=rX --exclude 'usr/lib/locale' \
--exclude lib --exclude lib32 --exclude lib64 \
$${ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR}/$$i/ $(STAGING_DIR)/$$i/ ; \
done ; \
The exclusion logic of lib/lib32/lib64 has been added by commit
5628776c4a4d29d0715633ea463b64cc19e19c5a with the purpose of only copying
the relevant usr/lib* directory from the toolchain to staging, instead of
all. For example, if ARCH_LIB_DIR is 'lib64', then only usr/lib64 would be
copied and usr/lib and usr/lib32 are ignored. It works by ignoring any
lib/lib32/lib64 subdirectory on the rsync of 'usr' and then separately
copying usr/{lib,lib32,lib64} as appropriate. (The exclusion rules only have
impact on the files beneath the main source directory.)
However, on the rsync of 'usr', ANY of the following directories AND files
would be excluded:
lib/
lib
lib32/
foobar/something/lib/
something-else/lib64/
while it is only the intention to skip directories directly under usr.
Therefore, add a leading (to restrict the scope to first-level) and trailing
(to restrict to directories) slash to the exclude pattern. From 'man rsync':
- if the pattern starts with a / then it is anchored to [..] the root of
the transfer.
- if the pattern ends with a / then it will only match a directory, not
a regular file, symlink, or device.
