Hello,

Thanks for this patch series!

I was confused originally when reading this patch, because I thought
you were talking about the Meson build system (http://mesonbuild.com/)
and not the Meson family of SoC (http://linux-meson.com/doku.php).

Minor nit on the commit title, I prefer lower-case "new" rather than
you. For your other commits in the same series, please drop the leading
"." in the commit titles.

We want this to be a Git formatted patch (i.e generated with git
format-patch), to have a description and Signed-off-by. Note that those
requirements for package patches are detailed in the Buildroot
documentation.

bool "host meson-tools" instead.

Can you try passing $(HOST_CONFIGURE_OPTS) instead ?

Better:

HOST_MESON_TOOLS_PROGS = amlbootsig unamlbootsig amlinfo

define HOST_MESON_TOOLS_INSTALL_CMDS
	$(foreach f,$(HOST_MESON_TOOLS_PROGS),
		$(INSTALL) -D -m 0755 $(@D)/$(f) $(HOST_DIR)/bin/$(f)
	)
endef
