2019.11-rc2, released November 16th, 2019
Fixes all over the tree.
Toolchain: ARC tools bumped to arc-2019.09-rc1, ensure
external toolchain kernel headers version check correctly stop
the build on mismatch
Meson: Fix generation of global cross-compilation.conf
Download: Also use the package download method for extra
downloads from the same site, so it does not get confused by
URLs containing '+'
Defconfigs: Fix boot issue for beaglebone
Updated/fixed packages: bird, chrony, connman, dhcp, domoticz,
dropwatch, dtc, elf2flt, gettext-tiny, glog, intel-microcode,
ipsec-tools, jailhouse, kodi, libfribi, libmbim, libressl,
libsigrokdecode, libsvgtiny, linux-serial-test, ltp-testsuite,
lvm2, lxc, mariadb, mesa3d, minizip, ndisc6, neardal, ninja,
ofono, openvmtools, oracle-mysql, qt5wayland, safeclib, socat,
sudo, systemd, wpewebkit, xserver_xorg-server
Fixes all over the tree and new features.
Dependencies: Gcc/g++ 4.8 or newer is now required on the
build host.
Ensure host has JSON::PP perl module installed if
webkitgtk/wpewebkit packages are enabled as it is needed
during their build process.
Toolchain: Add support for the D programming language (GCC
9.x, Glibc).
GCC 9.x updated to 9.2.0, Glibc updated to 2.30, Musl updated
to 1.1.24, uClibc-ng updated to 1.0.32, ARC toolchain updated
to arc-2019.09-eng002.
Musl: Add a patch to add support for
sched_{get,set}scheduler() and sched_{get,set}param() for
compatibility.
Generate check-headers program under BUILD_DIR rather than
/tmp to fix issues with distributions mounting /tmp noexec.
Also copy libssp.so for external toolchains if SSP
to handle toolchains providing SSP support in libssp rather
than in the C library
New defconfigs: Beaglebone AI, FriendlyARM Nanopi NEO Plus2,
Libre Computer "La Frite", QEMU Armv7-A with trustzone/OP-TEE,
STM32MP157 Discovery Kit
Arch: RISC-V: Default to a sensible floating point ABI based
on the selected ISA extensions rather than always defaulting
to ILP32/64

Graph-size: Package sizes are now shown in human readable form
(Kib/Mib/Gib) rather than always in Kib. Binary (KB/MB/GB)
format can be selected using the --binary option. The cut-off
limit for classifying packages as "other" is now configurable
using the --size-limit option.
Br2-external: Linux kernel extensions can now also be provided
in an external tree by adding packages under
linux/linux-ext-*.mk. See the manual for details.
Fakeroot now works correctly under Microsoft Windows 10
Services for Linux, which does not provide SYSV IPC support
The check-uniq-files logic which would complain if multiple
packages would touch the same files has been removed as it
causes issues in certain situations (when packages are
rebuilt) and the issue is no longer considered a problem for
toplevel parallel builds as those will use a per-package
staging/target directory.
With this removed, Python is no longer required for a basic
build (only for optional scripts).
support/scripts/genimage.sh will no longer make a copy of
TARGET_DIR, speeding up post-build/image scripts.
The runtime test logic now uses Python 3.x.
A 'v' prefix has been dropped from the <pkg>_SOURCE variable
for a number of packages to match the version numbers used by
https://release-monitoring.org
New packages: caps, collectl, dav1d, fstrcmp, ima-evm-utils,
jitterentropy-library, kodi-vfs-rar, kodi-vfs-sftp, libavl,
libhttpserver, libmspack, libnetconf2, libolm, libyang,
linux-serial-test, lrzip, mdevd, minimodem, musl-fts, netifrc,
ogre, openlayers, python-aioredis, python-asgiref,
