2 # Config.in.legacy - support for backward compatibility
4 # When an existing Config.in symbol is removed, it should be added again in
5 # this file, and take appropriate action to approximate backward compatibility.
6 # This will make the transition for the user more convenient.
8 # When adding legacy symbols to this file, add them to the front. The oldest
9 # symbols will be removed again after about two years.
11 # The symbol should be copied as-is from the place where it was previously
12 # defined, but the help text should be removed or replaced with something that
13 # explains how to fix it.
15 # For bool options, the old symbol should select BR2_LEGACY, so that the user
16 # is informed at build-time about selected legacy options.
17 # If there is an equivalent (set of) new symbols, these should be select'ed by
18 # the old symbol for backwards compatibility.
20 # For string options, it is not possible to directly select another symbol. In
21 # this case, a hidden wrap bool option has to be added, that defaults to y if
22 # the old string is not set at its default value. The wrap symbol should select
24 # If the original symbol has been renamed, the new symbol should use the value
25 # of the old symbol as default. This requires a change outside of
26 # Config.in.legacy, and this should be clearly marked as such below, so that
27 # removal of legacy options also include the removal of these external
30 # [Example: renaming a string option from FOO to BAR]
32 # config BR2_FOO_STRING
33 # string "Some foo string"
36 # config BR2_BAR_STRING
37 # string "Some bar string"
38 # default BR2_FOO_STRING if BR2_FOO_STRING != "" # legacy
40 # and in Config.in.legacy:
41 # config BR2_FOO_STRING
42 # string "The foo string has been renamed"
44 # <suitable help text>
46 # config BR2_FOO_STRING_WRAP
48 # default y if BR2_FOO_STRING != ""
51 # # Note: BR2_FOO_STRING is still referenced from package/foo/Config.in

1434 config BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_DMSETUP_ONLY
1435 bool "lvm2's 'dmsetup only' option removed"
1438 The BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_DMSETUP_ONLY was a negative option, which
1439 led to problems with other packages that need the full lvm2
1440 suite. Therefore, the option has been replaced with the positive
1441 BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_STANDARD_INSTALL option.
1443 # Note: BR2_PACKAGE_LVM2_DMSETUP_ONLY is still referenced in package/lvm2/Config.in
1444 # in order to automatically propagate old configs
1446 config BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE
1447 bool "qt javascriptcore option removed"
1450 The BR2_PACKAGE_QT_JAVASCRIPTCORE option was available to
1451 force the activation or disabling of the JIT compiler in the
1452 Qt Javascript interpreter. However, the JIT compiler is not
1453 available for all architectures, so forcing its activation
1454 does not always work. Moreover, Qt knows by itself for which
1455 architectures JIT support is possible, and will
1456 automatically enable it if possible.
1458 Therefore, this option was in fact useless, and causing
1459 build problems when enabled on architectures for which the
1460 JIT support was not available. It has been removed, and
1461 there is no replacement: Qt will enable JIT at compile time

1535 bool "ARM OABI support has been removed"
1538 The support for the ARM OABI was deprecated since a while,
1539 and has been removed completely from Buildroot. It is also
1540 deprecated in upstream gcc, since gcc 4.7. People should
1541 switch to EABI instead, which should not be a problem as
1542 long as you don't have pre-built OABI binaries in your
1543 system that you can't recompile.

1567 bool "the elf2flt option has been renamed"
1570 The BR2_ELF2FLT option has been renamed to

1574 config BR2_VFP_FLOAT
1575 bool "the ARM VFP floating point option has been renamed"
1578 Due to a major refactoring of the floating-point handling of
1579 the ARM architecture support, the BR2_VFP_FLOAT option has
1580 been replaced with a choice of options that allows to select
1581 between various VFP versions/capabilities.
1583 config BR2_PACKAGE_GCC_TARGET
