[Buildroot] new package: orc

[Buildroot] new package: orc

[Sven Neumann]

Here's an updated patch-set that adds orc, the liboil runtime compiler.
This package replaces liboil functionality-wise, it's not a drop-in
replacement. Newer versions of gstreamer plug-ins require orc for
accelerated codepaths.

I've dropped some patches that added orc dependencies all over the
place. It should be sufficient to make gst-plugins-base depend on
orc (if it is selected). All other gst-plugins packages do already
depend on gst-plugins-base.

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] orc: new package

[Sven Neumann]

Orc - the Oil Runtime Compiler - is the successor of liboil.
There's a runtime library that is installed in staging and target
and there's a host version that can be built if orcc, the ORC
compiler is needed at build time.

So presumably we should remove liboil? The only thing using it is
swfdec, which afaik is long dead upstream.

You could drop this line as that's default.

Why? You don't patch any files.

I prefer to only add host support when needed.

Should usr/bin/orcc get removed if !BR2_HAVE_DEVFILES or is it needed
for anything?

I've committed with those changes (except for orcc, please advice) -
Thanks.

Agreed.

Yes, that makes sense. There's also /usr/bin/orc-bugreport which should
probably be removed as well.

I won't find time to do the proposed changes before next week as I am
currently on vacation.

No problem, I've fixed it now.

What does this buy us? Extra functionality or higher performance?

Higher performance. It is highly recommended by the GStreamer developers
to enable this for production systems.
