allow conditionally disabling the building of certain user space
programs in the 'base' set.
There is not enough consensus that this is the right way and a few
people had strong objections, see source-changes-d@.
This code has been developed by Abhinav Upadhyay as part of Google's Summer
of Code 2011. It uses libmandoc to parse man pages and builds a Full
Text Index in a SQLite database. The combination of indexing the full
manual page, filtering out stop words and ranking individual matches
based on the section gives a much improved user experience.
The old makewhatis and friends are kept under MKMAKEMANDB=no for now.
This adds reachover Makefiles to build and install the atf tools.
Some are public, thus installed in /usr/bin, and others are internal
and therefore installed in /usr/libexec.
FORTIFY_SOURCE feature of libssp, thus checking the size of arguments to
various string and memory copy and set functions (as well as a few system
calls and other miscellany) where known at function entry. RedHat has
evidently built all "core system packages" with this option for some time.
This option should be used at the top of Makefiles (or Makefile.inc where
this is used for subdirectories) but after any setting of LIB.
This is only useful for userland code, and cannot be used in libc or in
any code which includes the libc internals, because it overrides certain
libc functions with macros. Some effort has been made to make USE_FORT=yes
work correctly for a full-system build by having the bsd.sys.mk logic
disable the feature where it should not be used (libc, libssp iteself,
the kernel) but no attempt has been made to build the entire system with
USE_FORT and doing so will doubtless expose numerous bugs and misfeatures.
Adjust the system build so that all programs and libraries that are setuid,
directly handle network data (including serial comm data), perform
authentication, or appear likely to have (or have a history of having)
data-driven bugs (e.g. file(1)) are built with USE_FORT=yes by default,
with the exception of libc, which cannot use USE_FORT and thus uses
only USE_SSP by default. Tested on i386 with no ill results; USE_FORT=no
per-directory or in a system build will disable if desired.
point to directories which do not exist (and are not wanted) in our source tree.
While we're here, was `libexec/spamd' approved for import? It conflicts with the
name of a tool in pkgsrc which a _lot_ of developers and users of NetBSD are using...
infrastructure and using that infrastructure in programs.
* MKHESIOD, MKKERBEROS, MKSKEY, and MKYP control building
of the infratsructure (libraries, support programs, etc.)
* USE_HESIOD, USE_KERBEROS, USE_SKEY, and USE_YP control
building of support for using the corresponding API
in various libraries/programs that can use it.
As discussed on tech-toolchain.
adding support for Heimdal/KTH Kerberos where easy to do so. Eliminate
bsd.crypto.mk.
There is still a bunch more work to do, but crypto is now more-or-less
fully merged into the base NetBSD distribution.
of the domestic build process. No domestic program actually builds its
own man pages but instead relies on those built in the exportable tree.
The result is missing telnet(1) and telnet(8) pages.
Fix this problem descending into the telnet and telnetd directories
regardless of whether we're doing an exportable build or not. Once there,
we generate only the man pages if we're building a non-exportable system.
