Summary:	alsa-lib ARM binaries always built with EABI

Description Per-Henrik Lundblom 2009-03-18 11:08:07 UTC

When configuring buildroot-2009.02 for OABI binaries (both uClibc/GCC and kernel) and enabling ALSA lib, the output binaries always will be EABI binaries.

Relevant buildroot config options:

BR2_VERSION="2009.02"
BR2_arm=y
BR2_xscale=y
BR2_ARM_TYPE="ARM_XSCALE"
BR2_ARM_OABI=y
BR2_ARCH="arm"
BR2_ENDIAN="LITTLE"
BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE="xscale"
BR2_GCC_TARGET_ABI="apcs-gnu"
BR2_PACKAGE_ALSA_LIB=y

This is due to a misconfiguration in package/multimedia/alsa-lib/alsa-lib.mk

Supplied patch should fix everything:

Yes, I have been asking the ARM people about this for some time. I think we should actually remove the entire conditional, as EABI builds already have -mabi=aapcs-linux in their CFLAGS.

Fixed in r25714.
