<id>urn:sha1:4a3f597a0ea3392bbd1063c40291743955309472</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS is no longer used anywhere, we can
remove it from arch/Config.in*, as well as from the documentation.

These were forgotten when the subarches were added in cd88e49.

<content type='text'>
Add Freescale E5500 and E6500 core support.
These can go in 32 or 64-bit mode.
I'm not aware of these being able to boot in LE mode so filter that out
until we get some feedback on it.

<title>arch/powerpc: get rid of BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE</title>

<id>urn:sha1:75418c4cf678a3c34352bd7a781296937815681d</id>
<content type='text'>
According to the gcc documentation for PowerPC options:

'-mtune=CPU_TYPE'
     Set the instruction scheduling parameters for machine type
     CPU_TYPE, but do not set the architecture type, register usage, or
     choice of mnemonics, as '-mcpu=CPU_TYPE' would.  The same values
     for CPU_TYPE are used for '-mtune' as for '-mcpu'.  If both are
     specified, the code generated will use the architecture, registers,
     and mnemonics set by '-mcpu', but the scheduling parameters set by
     '-mtune'.

In the case of Buildroot where we only target a specific system, using
-mtune therefore doesn't make much sense, and using -mcpu would be
more appropriate. As a consequence, this patch makes PowerPC use
BR2_GCC_TARGET_CPU instead of BR2_GCC_TARGET_TUNE.

This enables powerpc64 and powerpc64le. Currently, le needs at least
glibc 2.19 and gcc 4.9.0. For gdb, 7.7.1 works (added in an earlier
patch).

[Peter: also disallow gcc 4.8 for ppc64le]
