The arm_foundationv8_defconfig currently doesn't build because it uses an external AArch64 toolchain that has been updated (Linaro toolchain) and is now based on gcc 5.x. Unfortunately, Linux 3.13 is too old to be built with gcc 5.x. As a minimal fix to make this defconfig build again, we switch to use the internal toolchain backend. At the time this defconfig was introduced, there was no support for AArch64 in the internal toolchain backend, but now that it is available, there is no reason to not use it. This makes the defconfig also more consistent with the other defconfigs. Obviously, the kernel headers used to build the toolchain are set to the fixed version 3.13, so that they match the kernel being used. While we're at it, the readme.txt file corresponding to this defconfig is updated. Runtime testing has been performed with the latest version of the ARM Foundation model.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
