From 6510a826e178d674c1007126480170f0e5b1d77f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Baruch Siach Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2017 06:32:48 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] toolchain: remove CodeSourcery sh toolchain Since glibc 2.17, executable link command need not include the -lrt option for clock_* system calls. As a result, over time less and less software packages bother to check whether to toolchain needs -lrt. We are now at a point where maintainers refuse to add this complexity into their build system. This requires Buildroot to carry patches fixing this issue indefinitely. glibc 2.17 is now 4.5 years old. There is no reason to use an older version with current software. This commit removes the predefined profile for CodeSourcery sh toolchain that is based on glibc 2.16. One may still use the custom external toolchain support in Buildroot to get this toolchain back, and deal with any build issues that this toolchain causes.
