Feature #20
openAdd make target to check if toolchain is up to date
0%
Description
Various automated build/test services use a specific toolchain build for all tests, and have no way to know if the toolchain has been updated and requires a rebuild. This, in turn, means manual intervention is needed for these services every time the toolchain version changes. (unless various hacks involving searching the output text are used, but these are highly suboptimal).
A new make target to check if the built toolchain is completely up to date with the current coreboot versions would be very useful.

It checks gcc, clang, buildtools, and iasl.

This was completed, but seems like it may now be broken again.
The command 'make test-toolchain' should tell you if the toolchain version you are using is current, but currently reports that the toolchain is up-to-date even when that's not the case.
