Both for the rPI and the Verdex target we now have FDTs. The verdex
DTS is homebrew, the pxa DTSIs come from Linux and should be kept
in sync.
The rPI DTS and Broadcom DTSI come from FreeBSD HEAD, and should
ofcourse also be kept in sync.
One global new Jam rule has been introduced for handling DTS
compilation, aptly named CompileDTS....
More coming!
This is especially important for the assembler code in the kernel,
since it enables workarounds for some critical errata related to
exception handling.
This adds the -mapcs-frame compiler flag for ARM to have "stable"
stack frames, adds support to the kernel for dumping stack crawls,
and initial support for iframes. There' much more functionality
to unlock in KDL, but this makes debugging already a lot more
comfortable.....
The symlink was only correct, if the container was a package. For
containers with a non-empty path to the system directory the link would
duplicate the system directory path.
* TARGET_KERNEL_PIC_FLAGS was probably meant to be
TARGET_KERNEL_PIC_CCFLAGS at the time this had been added in 2005.
As correcting the name would mean that kernel add-ons would be
compiled such that they wouldn't be position independent, dropping
the variable makes more sense (which is just a cleanup and doesn't
change anything due to that variable being always empty)
* The needed LLVM libraries are now within
the Mesa optional build package.
* The swpipe renderer needs some work still
and will likey change, swrast is fully
functional.
* Remove support for VCSs other than git.
* Make the haiku-revision file a regular build target and make sure it
is built only once.
* Make determine_haiku_revision an actual shell script and simplify
it a bit.
Almost complete. bepdf is still missing, since it doesn't build with gcc
4 and a few source packages are missing as well (binutils and gcc
because haikuporter doesn't build them correctly ATM, mesa due to an
oversight).
* Introduce build variable HAIKU_IMAGE_ADDITIONAL_PACKAGES which can be
set to add additional packages to the image.
* Use HAIKU_IMAGE_ADDITIONAL_PACKAGES to support specifying a list of
additional packages via the build-package-list build profile action.
* Add htmldoc and texi2html when building the list of the packages for
which we need source packages when building the bootstrap Haiku image.
We don't want them on the regular image, but they are needed to build
some packages that are on it.
