[Buildroot] [PATCH v3] uboot-tools: bump to version 2014.04

[Alexey Brodkin]

U-Boot v2014.04 introduced significant changes in its build infrastrcture.

Among things related to buildroot are:
1. Special new target ("tools-only") was added for building host tools alone

2. Tools cross-building for target is no longer possible with substitution of
HOSTxx with TARGETxx because host binaries won't be built. Instead we just set
CROSS_COMPILE and CROSS_BUILD_TOOLS variables.

3. Most of make targets now require U-Boot to be configured before building.
So for building generic "fw_printenv" we now need to make "env" target config-
independent.

4. HOSTCPPFLAGS are only applicable to .cpp files so dropping
"uboot-tools-02-hostcflags-override-fix.patch"

Also due to lincese boilerplate change in sources
"uboot-tools-01-drop-configh-from-tools.patch" required subtle changes.

That's not true. They are flags for the preprocessor. You must be
confusing them with CXXFLAGS.

With that said, I think we're passing everything from HOST_CPPFLAGS
through HOST_CFLAGS as well, so it shouldn't matter.

Ok I think I did confused wit CXXFLAGS.

But I haven't found any mention of HOSTCPPFLAGS in current U-Boot so I'm
wondering if we still need to add any handling of HOSTCPPFLAGS in U-Boot
or there's nothing to be done?

Regards,
Alexey

No, I also don't see it used anywhere in u-boot nowadays, so the patch
can get dropped.

I'll adjust the commit message when I commit (unless review finds other
issues).

Thanks for handling this.
My intention was to explicitly mention dropping of the patch. But seems
like I failed to properly explain why it could be done.

This is just a kind reminder. If there're no objections is there a
chance to get this one applied?
