# Copy the full external toolchain sysroot directory to the staging
# dir. The operation of this function is rendered a little bit
# complicated by the support for multilib toolchains.
#
# We start by copying etc, 'lib', sbin, usr and usr/'lib' from the
# sysroot of the selected architecture variant (as pointed to by
# ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR). This allows to import into the staging directory
# the C library and companion libraries for the correct architecture
# variant. 'lib' may not be literally 'lib' but could be something else,
# e.g. lib32-fp (as determined by ARCH_LIB_DIR) and we only want to copy
# that lib directory and no other. When copying usr, we therefore need
# to be extra careful not to include usr/lib* but we _do_ want to
# include usr/libexec.
# We are selective in the directories we copy since other directories
# might exist for other architecture variants (on Codesourcery
# toolchain, the sysroot for the default architecture variant contains
# the armv4t and thumb2 subdirectories, which are the sysroot for the
# corresponding architecture variants), and we don't want to import
# them.
#
# If ARCH_LIB_DIR is not a singular directory component, e.g.
# 'lib32/octeon2', then symbolic links in ARCH_LIB_DIR and
# usr/ARCH_LIB_DIR may be broken because Buildroot will flatten the
# directory structure (e.g. lib32/octeon2/foo is actually stored in
# lib/foo). This is only relevant for links that contain one or more ../
# components, as links to the current directory are always fine.
# We need to fix the broken links by removing the right amount of ../
# dots from the link destination.
# Once the link destination is valid again, it can be simplified to
# remove the dependency on intermediate directory symlinks.
#
# It is possible that ARCH_LIB_DIR does not contain the dynamic loader
# (ld*.so or similar) because it (or the main symlink to it) normally
# resides in /lib while ARCH_LIB_DIR may be something else (e.g. lib64,
# lib/<tuple>, ...). Therefore, copy the dynamic loader separately.
#
# Then, if the selected architecture variant is not the default one
# (i.e, if SYSROOT_DIR != ARCH_SYSROOT_DIR), then we :
#
#  * Import the header files from the default architecture
#    variant. Header files are typically shared between the sysroots
#    for the different architecture variants. If we use the
#    non-default one, header files were not copied by the previous
#    step, so we copy them here from the sysroot of the default
#    architecture variant.
#
#  * Create a symbolic link that matches the name of the subdirectory
#    for the architecture variant in the original sysroot. This is
#    required as the compiler will by default look in
#    sysroot_dir/arch_variant/ for libraries and headers, when the
#    non-default architecture variant is used. Without this, the
#    compiler fails to find libraries and headers.
#
# Some toolchains (i.e Linaro binary toolchains) store support
# libraries (libstdc++, libgcc_s) outside of the sysroot, so we simply
# copy all the libraries from the "support lib directory" into our
# sysroot.
#
# Note that the 'locale' directories are not copied. They are huge
# (400+MB) in CodeSourcery toolchains, and they are not really useful.
