Kevin Tian 2a066e7ca9 gcc: fix check for target libc ssp support
gcc uses hardcoded path "${with-build-sysroot}/usr/include" to check target
libc ssp support. Based on GLIBC version strings in features.h in that search
path, gcc knows whether target (e)glibc implements stack protector itself.

However this breaks meta-toolchain, which actually has target libc headers
installed under {with-build-sysroot}/opt/... This way features.h is not found
and thus gcc-crosssdk-intermediate thinks that target (e)glibc doesn't support ssp.

Later when building eglibc-nativesdk, undefined reference to "__stack_chk_guard"
occurs which was caused by:

  o eglibc do_configure found that gcc-crosssdk-intermediate supports ssp,
    and thus enable -fstack-protector for nscd

  o eglibc itself supports stack smash proctection for some architectures such
    as i386, x86-64, etc. It's expected to use its own method to provide stack
    protection, instead of relying on gcc. So eglibc rtld.os doesn't export
    __stack_chk_guard to other modules

  o then when installing nscd objects, gcc-crosssdk-intermediate sees the
    flag "-fstack-protector", while it thought this eglibc doesn't implement
    ssp itself, so gcc turns to the alternative to find a valid
    __stack_chk_guard exported. eglibc doesn'g export it, while
    gcc-crosssdk-intermediate itself disables libssp.

Then the undefined reference happens. If enabling libssp for gcc-crosssdk-
intermediate, it may also work-around this issue. But the ideal fix is still
to replace hard coded path with the actual one where target libc gets installed.

glibc-nativesdk doesn't encounter this issue because it thinks gcc doesn't
support ssp, and thus doesn't enable "-fstack-protector" for nscd. Don't know
the reason yet

This fix [BUGID #366]

Poky

Poky platform builder is a combined cross build system and development environment. It features support for building X11/Matchbox/GTK based filesystem images for various embedded devices and boards. It also supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.

Poky has an extensive handbook, the source of which is contained in the handbook directory. For compiled HTML or pdf versions of this, see the Poky website http://pokylinux.org.

Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware.
