2011-12-07powerpc: Minimal private libgcc to build on DebianKyle Moffett
Standard Debian powerpc and powerpcspe systems only include hard-float libgcc in their native compilers, which causes scary build warnings when building U-Boot. Debian and other PowerPC-supporting distributions used to provide libgcc and other libraries in a "nof" (soft-float) form in the "multilib" packages. As they were completely unused by the distribution and therefore tended to be very buggy it was decided to save some time on the part of the maintainers and build-servers by removing them. Admittedly, right now the linker warnings do not indicate any problems, as the included routines do not use any floating point at all. The concern is that if floating-point code were ever added it might cause hard-float code to be unexpectedly included in U-Boot without generating a hard error. This would cause unexplained crashes or indeterminate results at runtime. The easiest way to resolve this is to borrow the routines that U-Boot needs from the Linux kernel, which has the same issue. Specifically, the routines are: _ashldi3(), _ashrdi3(), and _lshrdi3(). They were borrowed from arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S as of v2.6.38-rc5, commit 85e2efbb1db9a18d218006706d6e4fbeb0216213, and are GPLv2+. The Makefile framework was copied from the U-Boot ARM port.
