we're ELF now, and there are many missing checks against OBJECT_FMT.
if we ever consider switching, the we can figure out what new ones
we need but for now it's just clutter.
this doesn't remove any of the support for exec_aout or any actually
required-for-boot a.out support, only the ability to build a netbsd
release in a.out format. ie, most of this code has been dead for
over a decade.
i've tested builds on vax, amd64, i386, mac68k, macppc, sparc, atari,
amiga, shark, cats, dreamcast, landisk, mmeye and x68k. this covers
the 5 MACHINE_ARCH's affected, and all the other arch code touched.
it also includes some actual run-time testing of sparc, i386 and
shark, and i performed binary comparison upon amiga and x68k as well.
some minor details relevant:
- move shlib.[ch] from ld.aout_so into ldconfig proper, and cut them
down to only the parts ldconfig needs
- remove various unused source files
- switch amiga bootblocks to using elf2bb.h instead of aout2bb.h
* Don't bother prefixing commands with a line of ${_MKCMD}\
and instead rely upon "make -s". This is less intrusive on
all the Makefiles than the former. Idea from David Laight.
* Rename the variables use to print messages. The scheme now is:
_MKMSG_FOO Run _MKMSG 'foo'
_MKTARGET_FOO Run _MKMSG_FOO ${.TARGET}
From discussion with Alistair Crooks.
program/tool from "FOO" to "TOOL_FOO". The new variables are:
TOOL_ASN1_COMPILE TOOL_CAP_MKDB TOOL_CAT TOOL_CKSUM TOOL_COMPILE_ET
TOOL_CONFIG TOOL_CRUNCHGEN TOOL_CTAGS TOOL_DB TOOL_EQN TOOL_FGEN
TOOL_GENCAT TOOL_GROFF TOOL_HEXDUMP TOOL_INDXBIB TOOL_INSTALLBOOT
TOOL_INSTALL_INFO TOOL_M4 TOOL_MAKEFS TOOL_MAKEINFO TOOL_MAKEWHATIS
TOOL_MDSETIMAGE TOOL_MENUC TOOL_MKCSMAPPER TOOL_MKESDB
TOOL_MKLOCALE TOOL_MKMAGIC TOOL_MKTEMP TOOL_MSGC TOOL_MTREE
TOOL_PAX TOOL_PIC TOOL_PREPMKBOOTIMAGE TOOL_PWD_MKDB TOOL_REFER
TOOL_ROFF_ASCII TOOL_ROFF_DVI TOOL_ROFF_HTML TOOL_ROFF_PS
TOOL_ROFF_RAW TOOL_RPCGEN TOOL_SOELIM TOOL_SUNLABEL TOOL_TBL
TOOL_UUDECODE TOOL_VGRIND TOOL_ZIC
For each, provide default in <bsd.sys.mk> of the form:
TOOL_FOO?= foo
and for the ${USETOOLS}=="yes" case in <bsd.own.mk>, provide override:
TOOL_FOO= ${TOOLDIR}/bin/${_TOOL_PREFIX}foo
Document all of these in bsd.README.
This cleans up a chunk of potential (and actual) namespace collision
within our build infrastructure, as well as improves consistency in
the share/mk documentation and provision of appropriate defaults for
each of these variables.
than -0x20000000, not -0x1f000000. Quells the endless stream
of
ld: Double word displacement -535682276, out of range
style warnings that have annoyed my once too often.
make -V FILES
from being useful (and given that every other variable can be
extracted using make -V, the behaviour was unusually inconsistent
given that the original reason for clearing it doesn't seem to be
relevant anymore)
- use <bsd.prog.mk> instead of directly including <bsd.files.mk>
(and possibly <bsd.man.mk> or <bsd.own.mk>)
- remove obsolete NOPROG
* There is no -indent option to .Bd or .Bl, although you would
never know that from its frequent use in this tree. There is a
"-offset indent" combination that makes sense, and you can certainly
say "-width indent".
* Also, you can't markup the -width option argument, tho you CAN
use a callable macro. So "-width Ar filename" doesn't make sense,
but either "-width Ar" or "-width filename" does, as might something
like "-width xxfilename" for a little extra space.
* There are a lot of needlessly complex hanging tag macros in man4 used
to create simple item lists. Those should be simplified one of these
days before someone copies and edits yet another man4 page.
