2022.02-rc1, released February 13th, 2022
Numerous package updates and many (80) new packages.
Toolchain:
- glibc: Optional support for compatibility shims for running
on older kernels than what glibc has been built against
- uClibc: Use uClibc-ng 1.0.40
- External toolchains: Update Bootlin toolchains to 2021.11-1
version
Python 2.7 and python 2.x specific packages removed as python
2.x is EOL since April 2020. Likewise a number of python3
specific host packages has been renamed (host-python-foo
instead of host-python3-foo) now host-python is always python
3.x.
Cargo (Rust) package infrastructure added. Vendoring support
added to golang package infrastructure.

Toolchain:
- add support for gcc 11.x, gcc 10.x is now the default, gcc
9.x updated to 9.4.0, removed gcc 8.x support except for
PowerPC SPE
- add support for binutils 2.37, binutils 2.36.x is now the
default, binutils 2.34 removed.

Dependencies: Explicitly detect and bail out if PATH contains
spaces or tabs. A number of packages fail to build in such
setups, so explicitly inform about this.
Infrastructure: Expose CONFIG_DIR to post-build/post-image
scripts, so they can call the Buildroot Makefile in the
correct directory for both in-tree / out-of-tree builds.
CMake infrastructure: Use CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS rather than

ijson backend for older (< 2.5) ijson versions rather than the
slow python default, speeding up pkg-stats by ~2x.
Toolchain: Add logic to work around binutils bug 21464
(affecting OpenRISC), bug 27597 (affecting Nios II) and drop
