We already had backported patches for the Blackfin and AArch64
support, and now we would have needed to also backport the Xtensa
support and the Microblaze support. This starts to get crazy.
Let's switch to using a Git version from Github, until libffi finally
releases a new stable version.
In order to achieve this, we also need to:
* autoreconf the package, so that a libffi.pc file gets generated
* manually install the libffi.pc file, because it doesn't get
installed by libffi Makefile, for some reason
* remove the part of the target post install hook that was messing
with libffi.pc, since it was modifying the one in STAGING_DIR
(which is odd for a target post install hook), and the libffi.pc
file is anyway not installed to the target anymore.

As we are going to add an Xtensa related patch that needs to be
applied *after* the AArch64 patch, let's first add a number to each
util-linux patch file name, so that we know they will be applied in
the right order.

The external toolchain wrapper sets sysroot etc. to an absolute path.
By changing this to a relative path, it is possible to move the host
directory to a different location and still have a working build
system.
This only works for a downloaded external toolchain. For a pre-installed
external toolchain, it is possible to move the host directory to a
different location, but not the external toolchain directory (it does work
if the external toolchain directory lies within the host directory). For
an internal or crosstool-ng toolchain, there is no wrapper so updating the
sysroot path should be done in a different way.
See http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2012-February/050371.html
for information about others things to do to make the host directory
relocatable.

This reverts commit f1b86cef98
While the fix makes gnutls build without wchar, it doesn't actually work as
there's no rpl_wctomb implementation so the .so ends up with an undefined
reference to wctomb:
./host/usr/bin/arm-linux-nm -D staging/usr/lib/libgnutls.so.28|grep wctomb
U wctomb
Causing linker errors for packages trying to use it:
CCLD msmtp
host/usr/arm-buildroot-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/libgnutls.so:
undefined reference to `wctomb'

This patch will add <pkg>_CONFIG_FIXUP variable to buildroot infra.
It's purpose is to inform buildroot that the package in question
contains some $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/*-config files and that we
want to automatically fix prefixes of such files.
It is often the case that many packages call these
files during their configuration step to determine 3rd party
library package locations and any flags needed to link against them.
For example:
Some package might try to check the existense and linking flags
of NSPR package by calling $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin/nspr-config --prefix.
Without this fix. NSPR would return /usr/ as it's prefix which is
wrong when cross-compiling.
Correct would be $(STAGING_DIR)/usr.
All packages that have <pkg>_INSTALL_STAGING = YES defined and
also install some config file(s) into $(STAGING_DIR)/usr/bin must
hereafter also define <pkg>_CONFIG_FIXUP with the correspondig
filename(s).
For example:
DIVINE_CONFIG_FIXUP = divine-config
or for multiple files:
IMAGEMAGICK_CONFIG_FIXUP = Magick-config Wand-config

The original cJSON submittal downloaded a .zip file from SourceForge.
The .zip file did not have a version number, making it impossible
to gaurantee that the same archive is downloaded on any given build.
It also required a custom EXTRACT command.
This patch changes the source for cJSON to the svn repository
listed on the sf project web page - giving us an actual version
number, and letting us use buildroot's normal extraction functionality.

The Calibrator is a small C program that is supposed to analyze
a computers (cache-) memory system and extract the following
parameters:
number of cache levels
for each cache level:
its size
its linesize
its access/miss latency
main memory access latency
number of TLB levels
for each TLB level:
its capacity (i.e. number of entries)
the pagesize used
the TLB miss latency
http://homepages.cwi.nl/~manegold/Calibrator/
It is also recommended as a load generator for realtime testing in:
