# Build a smaller sh (e.g. for boot media)

|

# Once upon a time (actually, 11/97) cjs wrote this Makefile and put
|
||||
# in a comment explaining why the obvious approach would NOT work,
|
||||
# and proceeded to do it in an ugly but functional way. Later (actually,
|
||||
# on 3/29/98) Christos came along and did it the simple, clean, and
|
||||
# beautiful way which, sadly, does not work. What's funny is, that pesky
|
||||
# comment was deleted in the same 3/29 commit.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# So now, on 5/3/98 ross comes along and decides to fix it. I'm not doing
|
||||
# it Curt's way, exactly, but I am going to explain again why this is ugly
|
||||
# and, once again, why the obvious way to do it won't work. The reason for
|
||||
# this long-winded explaination is obvious: if someone comes along and "fixes"
|
||||
# my ugly version I want them to at least get their version to really work.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# You cannot completely test this makefile by building in the
|
||||
# utils/x_sh directory! The whole problem comes from crunchgen(1).
|
||||
# The way crunchgen(1) works is to build a makefile in /tmp that includes
|
||||
# the makefile from the directory to be crunched. It executes that makefile
|
||||
# in order to get the list of files to work on. The key thing is: crunchgen
|
||||
# doesn't run from this directory. Therefore, this makefile has to be able
|
||||
# to work from some other directory.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# So, my XXX hack is to locate the sh directory from the different
|
||||
# possible subdirectory level counts beneath /usr/src. Note that using
|
||||
# objdirs changes the level count and usually makes it impossible to do a
|
||||
# relative traversal to another source directory. That's why the :H is
|
||||
# used, to cancel out the objdir. ".." won't do it, that moves us up
|
||||
# the obj tree.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Be very careful before attempting to "clean up" the ugly location
|
||||
# of the bin/sh source directory. The problem is that crunchgen(1)
|
||||
# doesn't run from this directory, thus creating a triple-indirect
|
||||
# sh Makefile include and requiring the whole thing to work from
|
||||
# different levels in the tree.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# We could just use only the BSDSRCDIR assignment, but right now the use
|
||||
# of BSDSRCDIR can be deleted here, and so I didn't want to depend on it
|
||||
# in case someday we completely nuke BSDSRCDIR.
