odroidxu4: armv5 to armv7-a so it compiles with modern gcc

  • have absolutely no idea if this works. there's also some other armv5 variants to try if this does not.
  • XU4's CPU is Exynos5422 ARM Cortex-A15 which should be armv7-a indeed, so why not?

Hmm. This is untestable, I realize.SKIP_EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAINS=yes only works for armhf on armbian-next. I will provide builds for testing soon. This was rumoured to be the last modern-gcc-resistant thing, so maybe this will allow us to.... 😱 drop toolchains?

What about adding: UBOOT_USE_GCC='> 9.0' to https://github.com/armbian/build/blob/master/config/sources/families/odroidxu4.conf#L1-L6

Is this still interesting?

It is, and included in armbian-next so we can built without external toolchains. It's here for someone who knows to appreciate eventual impacts, of which I guess there are none or someone would have spoken up. You can close Igor
