commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=474d39991bf4701e4138150171954bbe016330c7
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Even though Qt4 could be built for ARC cores during execution
of Qt4 applications on target issues will happen.

Most notable is will be segfaults due to unaligned access to data,
especially in WebKit applications.

Both patches were submitted upstream and if they ever get accepted
they should be removed from Buildroot.

+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Add initial support of ARC architecture
+
+DesignWare ARC 700 and ARC HS38 are families of 32-bit CPUs
+developed by Synopsys, Inc.
+
+This change implements following:
+ [1] Defines ARC as one embedded targets
+ [2] Defines default tools prefixed for ARC like
+     arc-linux-g++ etc
+ [3] Defines "inotify" syscall numbers for ARC
+     (note ARC fully compliant to Linux UAPI headers)
+ [4] Disables 16-bit aligned data access
+
+For now we're using generic atomic ops even though it may
+introduce performance panalty.
+
+Change-Id: I91e879ac55c2f3643a544f97cd59671a81ccc3c2
+
+This patch was submited in upstream Qt4 and if it ever gets accepted,
+it should be removed from Buildroot.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Prevent unaligned access on ARC
+
+As many other architectures ARC cores by default don't support
+unaligned word access to data.
+
+Even though it's possible to enable unaligned access to data in
+ARC HS38 core (we're talking about configuration of core design)
+to make sure Qt could be executed on any flavour of ARC fall-back
+to byte-accesses is used.
+
+Change-Id: I96068d40b449f11ba987ed1e5d5e44f493d1eb5f
+
+This patch was submited in upstream Qt4 and if it ever gets accepted,
+it should be removed from Buildroot.
