| comment "crosstool-NG behavior" |
| |
| config OBSOLETE |
| bool |
| prompt "Use obsolete features" |
| help |
| If you set this to Y, you will be able to select obsolete features. |
| |
| Such obsolete features are the use of old kernel headers, old gcc |
| versions, etc... for which maintaining support in crosstool-NG |
| would be very costly. |
| |
| It does not however mean that the specific feature or version has been |
| marked obsolete by the upstream team. |
| |
| config EXPERIMENTAL |
| bool |
| prompt "Try features marked as EXPERIMENTAL" |
| help |
| If you set this to Y, then you will be able to try very experimental |
| features. |
| |
| Experimental features can be one of: |
| - working, in which case you should tell me it is! |
| - buggy, in which case you could try patching and send me the result |
| - unfinished, in which case you could try hacking it and send me the result |
| - non-existant, in which case you could also try hacking it in and send me |
| the result |
| |
| config DEBUG_CT |
| bool |
| prompt "Debug crosstool-NG" |
| depends on ! BACKEND |
| help |
| Say 'y' here to get some options regarding debugging crosstool-NG. |
| |
| if DEBUG_CT |
| |
| config DEBUG_PAUSE_STEPS |
| bool |
| prompt "Pause between every steps" |
| help |
| Say 'y' if you intend to attend the build, and want to investigate |
| the result of each steps before running the next one. |
| |
| config DEBUG_CT_SAVE_STEPS |
| bool |
| prompt "Save intermediate steps" |
| help |
| If you say 'y' here, then you will be able to restart crosstool-NG at |
| any step. |
| |
| It is not currently possible to restart at any of the debug facilities. |
| They are treated as a whole. |
| |
| To get the full list os steps, run: ct-ng list-steps |
| |
| config DEBUG_CT_SAVE_STEPS_GZIP |
| bool |
| prompt "gzip saved states" |
| default y |
| depends on DEBUG_CT_SAVE_STEPS |
| help |
| If you are tight on space, then you can ask to gzip the saved states |
| tarballs. On the other hand, this takes some longer time... |
| |
| To lose as less time as possible, the gzip process is done with a low |
| compression ratio (-3), which gives roughly 70% gain in size. Going |
| further doesn't gain much, and takes far more time (believe me, I've |
| got figures here! :-) ). |
| |
| config NO_OVERIDE_LC_MESSAGES |
| bool |
| prompt "Do *not* overide LC_MESSAGES (EXPERIMENTAL)" |
| depends on EXPERIMENTAL |
| help |
| By default, crosstool-NG sets and exports LC_ALL=C so that the |
| build.log file contains english messages, that can be read by |
| people most likely to help interpret the logs. If you say N here, |
| and your locale is not an english language, then dissecting your |
| log file will be difficult for most people but you. |
| |
| If you say Y here, then your current locale settings will be used |
| to print messages, instead of plain english. |
| |
| Say N, please. |
