Firstly, we ignore getenv("PWD") if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is set so that we always
get the same value for .CURDIR regardless of how make was invoked.
Second, when executing a command we check if it is ${.MAKE} or ${.MAKE:T}
without a preceeding chdir, if so we insert a chdir(${.CURDIR}) so that
the Makefile will be found by the child make. Note that this behaviour is
dissabled if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is not set or if NOCHECKMAKECHDIR is set.
See the comments in main.c for more detail.
With these two changes, one can successfully build usr/src using MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX
allowing the src to be mounted from a CD-ROM.
Unfortunately this revealed a deeper problem with the brk_string code.
To fix it:
- remove sharing of the buffer between brk_string invocations
- change the semantics of brk_string so that the argument array
starts with 0, and return the buffer where the strings are
stored
arch.c: Don't require ranlib stuff. Not everybody has it.
dir.c: SunOS-4 != Solaris; change #ifdef sun to #if sun && !__svr4__
job.c, compat.c: Don't use 'union wait', use int and the W*() macros.
main.c: Check for uname() == -1; some unames return > 0...
util.c, job.c: Add signal() with BSD semantics for svr4, don't use bsd
sigmask and friends.
- ${.PREFIX} should never contain a full pathname
- Fixed gcc -Wall warnings
Major:
- compatMake is now FALSE. This means that we are now running in
full pmake mode:
* rules on dependency lines can be executed in parallel and or
out of sequence:
foo: bar baz
can fire the rule for baz before the rule for bar is fired.
To enforce bar to be fired before baz, another rule needs to be
added. [bar: baz]
* adjacent shell commands in a target are now executed by a single
invocation of the shell, not one invocation of the shell per line
(compatMake can be turned off using the -B flag)
- The -j flag now works... I.e. make -j 4 will fork up to four jobs in
parallel when it can. The target name is printed before each burst
of output caused by the target execution as '--- target ---', when j > 1
- I have changed all the Makefiles so that they work with make -j N, and
I have tested the whole netbsd by:
'make -j 4 cleandir; make -j 4 depend; make -j 4; make -j 4 install'
- I have not compiled or tested this version of make with -DREMOTE.
