Use getmakevar to expand MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX or MAKEOBJDIR, or (if
neither of those variables is set) use a non-recursive "make obj" in
the top level source directory.
* Do not let TOP_objdir default to ${TOP}. It's now set only by the
-M or -O command line options, or after using getmakevar to expand
MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX or MAKEOBJDIR.
* Make try_set_TOOLDIR handle MAKEOBJDIRPERFIX passed from the
environment. It runs too early to use getmakevar, so it will not work
if the value contains embedded '${...}' variable references.
* Use '$TOOLDIR' (with a literal '$') instead of 'nonexistent' in
a message when rebuilding make when TOOLDIR is not yet known.

The default remains MAKEVERBOSE=2.
- introduce X11FLAVOUR to choose src/x11 vs src/external/mit/xorg
for the X11 to build if MKX11=yes is set. it takes the values
of either Xorg or XFree86.
- default to Xorg on alpha, i386, macppc, shark, sparc and sparc64
- remove MKXORG_WITH_XSRC_XSERVER, unused and never useful
and so on. Significant highlights:
- mention src/tests and reference atf;
- provide examples of MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH;
- mention that MKOBJ=no is not recommended;
- correct the description of the default setting of USETOOLS;
- document the interactions of build.sh -[uo] with various things;
- document the interactions of build.sh tools and kernel=FOO;
- use a lot fewer parentheses.

to the CD-ROM image.
Make CDEXTRA and CDBUILDEXTRA be able to contain lists of files and directories
which are added in turn.
Add support for CDEXTRA_SKIP which contains a list of fnmatch(3) items to
skip during the copy. This is _very_ useful for skipping CVS dirs for example.
CDBUILDEXTRA and CDEXTRA_SKIP are to be used in Makefiles creating the images,
CDEXTRA remains to be used from build.sh.
Update documentation and build.sh help text to show that -C can be used to
specify a list of files and directories rather than just a single dir.
* Describe the HOST_SH variable, and the way build.sh attempts to set it.
* Suggest passing HOST_SH in the environment if /bin/sh is not a working
shell.
which invokes make iso-image in the etc directory.
* Add an "iso-image" action in build.sh, which
invokes make iso-image.
* Document the above in doc/BUILDING.mdoc.
* Re-generate BUILDING.

rather than adding '-s' to make's command line in the makewrapper,
use the .SILENT target based on MAKEVERBOSE's value.
This means that you can do:
./build.sh -N 1 makewrapper
$TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$MACHINE
# runs at MAKEVERBOSE==1, with command lines suppressed
$TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$MACHINE MAKEVERBOSE=2
# runs at MAKEVERBOSE==2 for this invocation, with command lines shown
* add "releasekernel=conf", to install a gzipped copy of the kernels
built by "kernel=conf" to RELEASEDIR/MACHINE/binary/kernel
build.sh:
* be more consistent in various status messages
* move the {release,}kernel=conf conf parsing code into getkernelconf()
and use in both buildkernel() and releasekernel()
* only warn once when building multiple kernels without updating the tools
Add "makewrapper" operation to build.sh.
[The above changes were suggested by Alan Barrett on current-users@]
Fail if building as non-root unless: UNPRIVED is set, -U is given, or -E
(expert mode) is given.

Improve the examples in BUILDING.
parameters, and a list of "operations" defines what to do.
The full usage is show below. Notes:
`-b' has been deprecated (it always occurs now)
`-d' is replaced by "distribution"
`-R rel' onlys sets RELEASEDIR; use "release" to build a release
`-k kern' has been replaced by "kernel=kern"
`-i idir' has been replaced by "install=idir"
-r now occurs before nbmake is rebuilt
Add a copyright (long due!). Rework the code to (a KNF inspired) ShellNF.
Use functions appropriately. Allow `nb' prefix to be easily changed to
something else. Solve world peace (just kidding)
This is part of the (never achievable) goal of attempting to make
NetBSD easier to build...
--8<-- new usage follows --8<--
Usage: build.sh [-EnorUu] [-a arch] [-B buildid] [-D dest] [-j njob] [-M obj]
[-m mach] [-O obj] [-R release] [-T tools] [-V var=[value]]
[-w wrapper] [operation [...] ]
System build operations (all imply "obj" and "tools"):
build Run "make build"
distribution Run "make distribution" (includes etc/ files)
release Run "make release" (includes kernels & distrib media)
Other operations:
obj Run "make obj" (default unless -o)
tools Build and install tools
kernel=conf Build kernel with config file `conf'
install=idir Run "make installworld" to `idir'
(useful after 'distribution' or 'release')
Options:
-a arch Set MACHINE_ARCH to arch (otherwise deduced from MACHINE)
-B buildId Set BUILDID to buildId
-D dest Set DESTDIR to dest
-E Set "expert" mode; disables some DESTDIR checks
-j njob Run up to njob jobs in parallel; see make(1)
-M obj Set obj root directory to obj (sets MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX)
-m mach Set MACHINE to mach (not required if NetBSD native)
-n Show commands that would be executed, but do not execute them
-O obj Set obj root directory to obj (sets a MAKEOBJDIR pattern)
-o Set MKOBJDIRS=no (do not create objdirs at start of build)
-R release Set RELEASEDIR to release
-r Remove contents of TOOLDIR and DESTDIR before building
-T tools Set TOOLDIR to tools. If unset, and TOOLDIR is not set in
the environment, nbmake will be (re)built unconditionally.
-U Set UNPRIVED
-u Set UPDATE
-V v=[val] Set variable `v' to `val'
-w wrapper Create nbmake script as wrapper
(default: ${TOOLDIR}/bin/nbmake-${MACHINE})
There were too many synchronisation problems with using the former;
including situations such as a "make clean" performed between two
installs to the same DESTDIR would result in a truncated METALOG and
the resultant sets would be missing stuff such as include files that
don't get reinstalled if they haven't changed, even with !UPDATE.
- make's UNPRIVED support
- build.sh's -U support
- the build system currently needs to build onto a file system with
long file name and hard link support
* Rewrite src/tools Make logic to work like the rest of the tree wrt
"dependall" and "install". The old "make build" hack is gone.
* Remove the MKTOOLS logic. This was linked to the "make build" hack,
and was only needed because TOOLDIR originally had no writable default.
* Redo the GNU configure/make logic to make it fit reasonably in a
BSD make wrapper. Use new ${.ALLTARGETS} variable to scan for
targets in $(srcdir), and mark them with .MADE: to prevent rebuilding.
* Only build cross tools in src/tools; remove some messy logic in
src/usr.* and src/gnu/usr.* that would do target filename rewriting
(improves consistency and readability).
* Add the ability to build cross gdb at tool build time by setting
MKCROSSGDB (default no) to "yes" in mk.conf.
* Add src/tools/groff and set up paths to work with this cross groff.
