Subject: kbuild: introduce cc-cross-prefix
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=910b40468a9ce3f2f5d48c5d260329c27d45adb5;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

kbuild: introduce cc-cross-prefix

cc-cross-prefix is useful for the architecture that like
to provide a default CROSS_COMPILE value,
but may have several to select between.

Sample usage:

ifneq ($(SUBARCH),$(ARCH))
        ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
               CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, m68k-linux-gnu- m68k-linux-)
        endif
endif

Actual usage by the different archs will taken care of later.

 	In this example for a specific GCC version the build will error out explaining
 	to the user why it stops.
 
+    cc-cross-prefix
+	cc-cross-prefix is used to check if there exist a $(CC) in path with
+	one of the listed prefixes. The first prefix where there exist a
+	prefix$(CC) in the PATH is returned - and if no prefix$(CC) is found
+	then nothing is returned.
+	Additional prefixes are separated by a single space in the
+	call of cc-cross-prefix.
+	This functionality is usefull for architecture Makefile that try
+	to set CROSS_COMPILE to well know values but may have several
+	values to select between.
+	It is recommended only to try to set CROSS_COMPILE is it is a cross
+	build (host arch is different from target arch). And is CROSS_COMPILE
+	is already set then leave it with the old value.
+
+	Example:
+		#arch/m68k/Makefile
+		ifneq ($(SUBARCH),$(ARCH))
+		        ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
+		               CROSS_COMPILE := $(call cc-cross-prefix, m68k-linux-gnu-)
