* create symlinks to the GCC8 patches (introduced in pmaports!35)
* link to the new vendorkernel reference wiki page
* use SPDX license in the license= field
* add comment above the compiler section of the APKBUILD
* remove empty line at the end of the APKBUILD
When the timeout occurs it is important to ensure clean up of child
processes. Killing only the direct process created by a command can
leave child processes running.
For example a pmbootstrap.py install will run apk add. This run command
creates multiple processes as follows:
(cmd line arguments snipped for readability)
$ ps -e -o pid,ppid,pgid,cmd
PID PPID PGID CMD
31738 23247 31738 python3 ./pmbootstrap.py -t 15 install --no-fde
31746 31738 31738 sudo env -i /bin/sh -c ... ;apk --no-progress add
31747 31746 31738 /bin/sh -c ... ;apk --no-progress add
31748 31747 31738 apk --no-progress add
The root process of the run command is PID 31746. We want to kill
the child processes too. Otherwise only running kill -9 31746 will leave
the processes 31747 and 31748 running.
* aportgen: modify code to allow generating gcc6-armhf and other gcc6
cross compiler packages
* package: when 'gcc6' is in the depends of a package, and the cross
compiling mode is "native" (as we do it with kernels), install the
gcc6 cross compiler instead of the usual one (gcc8)
Related: pmaports#103
When cross compiling, the kernel scripts would be in the native arch
again. That was already fixed in !1234, however the mime type of the
binaries has changed, so we couldn't detect them properly anymore
(#1659).
This commit fixes it again, and also adds a checks so this won't
silently fail in the future.
[skip ci] because this would not run through anyway (building these
packages takes too long). Fixes#1659.
The pmbootstrap alias cannot be used within the script.
The reason is that aliases are not expanded in non-interactive shells.

To fix this replace references to the pmbootstrap alias with
the $pmbootstrap variable
Overview:
In order to execute foreign arch binaries on the host system, we are
using the Linux kernel's binfmt_misc feature in combination with
static builds of QEMU. Before this patch, the statically compiled
QEMU binaries were taken from Debian (mostly because I did not realize
that Alpine ships them as well). Now we can use the ones from the aport.
Benefits:
This allows us to easily update and patch the QEMU executables, we
don't need to be in sync with Debian's versions anymore.
Alpine's package is more modular, so we can save some download,
install, zap time, as well as disk space: setting up an armhf chroot
with pmbootstrap took ~102 MB before, now it's ~18 MB.
Detailed changes:
* Remove `cross/qemu-user-static-repack` aport
* Add `data/qemu-user-binfmt.txt` with the binfmt_misc flags for ELF
binaries of various arches (extracted from Debian's packaging)
* When parsing that file, don't write verbose messages to
`pmbootstrap log` anymore, only to the verbose log (can be enabled
with `pmbootstrap -v`)
* Rename `pmb.parse.arch.alpine_to_debian()` to ...`alpine_to_qemu()`
* Rename `arch_debian` to `arch_qemu`
