+configure: fix detection for cURL libs when static linking
+
+Currently, to check for cURL, configure uses either pkg-config (the default),
+or curl-config (as a fallback).
+
+But curl-config and pkg-config do not have the same set of options:
+ - to check for shared libs, both use the option: --libs
+ - to check for static libs:
+ - pkg-config uses: --static --libs
+ - curl-config uses: --static-libs
+
+To add to the complexity, pkg-config is called through the querry_pkg_config
+wrapper, that already passes --static when static linking is required, but
+there is no such wrapper for curl-config, so we miss the occasion to pass
+--static-libs
+
+To fix this:
+ - introduce a new variable QEMU_XXX_CONFIG_LIBS_FLAGS that mirrors the
+ behavior of QEMU_PKG_CONFIG_FLAGS; this variable can be used by all
+ xxx-config scripts (eg. curl-config, but later sdl-config too).
+ Default it to '--libs', which is for shared linking;
+ - properly use either --libs for pkg-config (--static is already takend
+ care of in the wrapper), or $QEMU_XXX_CONFIG_LIBS_FLAGS for
+ curl-config.

+configure: fix detection for SDL libs when static linking
+
+Currently, configure checks for SDL libs with either pkg-config (the
+default), or with sdl-config (as a fallback).
+
+As for cURL (previous patch), sdl-config does not have the same set of
+options as pkg-config:
+ - to check for shared libs, both use the option: --libs
+ - to check for static libs:
+ - pkg-config uses: --static --libs
+ - curl-config uses: --static-libs
+
+Fix that by using the previously introduced $QEMU_XXX_CONFIG_LIBS_FLAGS
+variable, the way ot was done previously for cURL.
+
+Also, simplify the code-path for checking for SDL libs with a single,
+non-conditional call to $sdlconfig, which is either pkg-config or
+sdl-config, as checked just above.

Signed-off-by: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin.1998@free.fr> --- It can be useful to have a statically-linked QEMU (especially the linux-user and bsd-user emulators) to avoid run-time issues with dynamically-loaded libraries. There is an issue where QEMU could not be able to properly (re)map libraries in memory due to some overlap between its own memory mappings and the mappings of the user application being translated (it's a complex issue, so don't count on me to properly explain it, I did not understood it completely either... :-/ ). --- package/qemu/Config.in | 38 ++++++++++++++---- package/qemu/qemu-static-curl.patch | 72 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ package/qemu/qemu-static-sdl.patch | 54 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ package/qemu/qemu.mk | 4 ++ 4 files changed, 159 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) create mode 100644 package/qemu/qemu-static-curl.patch create mode 100644 package/qemu/qemu-static-sdl.patch
