Blackfin and Microblaze + support for internal uClibc-ng toolchain, m68k/coldfire + improvements. The check for unsafe (build host) directories + access (/usr/include and /usr/lib) is now enabled by default. + Unused locales are now purged by default to save space (and + the default list of locales shrunk). The option to control + this has now moved from the toolchain menu to system + configuration. + + Legal info improvements: sources are now hardlinked instead of + copied if possible to save space. Patches and extra downloads + are also saved. + + An experimental configuration knob (BR2_REPRODUCIBLE) has been + added to make the builds more reproducible (E.G. less + differences in the binary output between builds of the same + configuration). This is still work in progress. + + An option to execute a custom script inside the fakeroot + environment used to the generate the filesystem (E.G. to tweak + permissions or similar) has been added. + + Git support now supports git submodules if + _GIT_SUBMODULES is enabled. + + Hash files for integritry validation have been added for all + packages. + + Scanpypi utility to help creating packages from the Python + package index (pypi) has been added. + + The makedevs utility now has support for adding file + capabilities using extended attributes. + + New defconfigs: Arcturus uCP1020, Atmel sama5d{2,3,4} xplained + development configs, Blackfin GDB simulator, Linksprite + pcDuino, Minnow Board Max graphical demo, NXP i.MX25 PDK, + i.MX51 EVK, i.MX6UL Pico, i.MX7 sabresd, QEMU MIPS32r6{,el} and + MIPS64r6{,el} malta, Roseapple Pi, Samsung Snow chromebook, + Toradex Apalis i.MX6 COM, TS-4800, x86-64 PC BIOS and EFI + demos.
