| Subject: [PATCH] bindings: python: fix library loading |
| |
| On Linux the find_library() function requires ld, gcc, objdump |
| or ldconfig on the target, which might not be present on a |
| buildroot system. [1] |
| We do not actually need this function at all, as we know the iio library |
| will be referencable in the system under the name "libiio.so". |
| So instead of kicking of this complicated cross-platform/cross-distro |
| compatible machinery, we just pass in the name of the library we already |
| know. |
| |
| [1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/ctypes.html#finding-shared-libraries |
| |
| Upstream: N/A, buildroot doesn't have to care about different OS's and |
| distro setups, so we can just hardcode the lib name, but we cannot |
| submit that upstream. |
