into every 'gnode' (aka target), instead just copy a pointer to the string
and avoid freeing the original name when we close the file.
I can't imagine any makefile set where this gives a larger footprint!
This gives a considerable speedup in the processing of .WAIT and .ORDER.
Both .WAIT and .ORDER stop both the commands of the node, and its dependant
nodes being built until the LH nodes are complete.
.WAIT only applies to the dependency line on which it appears, whereas
.ORDER applies globally between the two nodes.
In both cases dependant nodes can be built because other targets need them.
make now processes the target list left to right, scheduling child nodes
as they are needed to make other nodes (instead of attempting to generate
a bottom-up dependency graph at the start). This means that 'make -j1'
will tend to build in the same order as a non-parallel make.
Note that:
all: x y
x: a .WAIT b
y: b .WAIT a
does not generate a dependency loop.
But
x: y
.ORDER y x
does (unless something elswhere causes 'y' to be built).
(Almost all the debug output went there, but some went to stderr.)
Split the parsing of -d (debug flags) out into its own routine.
Allow the output filename to be changed by specifying -dF<file> to create
a log file, or -dF+<file> to append to it. <file> may be stdout or stderr.
Also change so that -d-<flags> acts on <flags> locally but doesn't copy
them to MAKEFLAGS so they aren't inherited by child makes.
I'm not 100% happy with the command line syntax for the above, so they are
currently undocumented.

cause a cycle in the dependency graph.

of trying to de-jobify the make.
You can now put .NOTPARALLEL in a submake of a recursive make (where it is
using a job-token pipe from the outer make and have it only run a single job.
You can also specify .NOTPARRALEL in the root makefile of a large recursive
make and have the submakes run multiple commands.
Add some diagnostics printfs (enabled with -dp) to the parser.
Also :tW and a W flag to :C and :S to allow treating value as a single word.
Add unit tests for the above, and fix some corner cases.
Based on patches supplied by Alan Barrett <apb@cequrux.com>
In these revisions `::' dependency handling was simplified by not linking
the cohort nodes into the dependency graph. This broke dependency checking
on all but the first instance of a `::' target since all of the cohort nodes
now just form a collection of disconnected dependency graphs.
Fix this by keeping a back-reference in each cohort to its leader (the
first instance of a :: node with the same name) and a count of the number
of cohorts that need to be made before dependent nodes are scheduled.
Classically, we'd need six centurions for cohort, but in this case one
suffices...
* Replace chdir_verify_path() with Main_SetObjdir(), which can be called
externally, and can take a "const char *". (There's a lot of non-const
"char *" passing around in var.c of what should be const strings....)
* Rewrite the initial "find my .OBJDIR" code to make use of the new
function. This still functions as it had in the past, but the comment
above this block was changed to reflect reality: if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX
or MAKEOBJDIR are set in the environment, then *only that value* is
tried; make does not fall back to obj.MACHINE, obj, and /usr/obj/`pwd`
as it would without these env vars set.
* Add a new special target, .OBJDIR:, which when parsed will cause make to
change to a new object directory and reset .OBJDIR, and PWD in the
environment. This will allow some makefiles (mainly, src/tools)
to override the default objdir semantics in order to add custom logic.
(This splits out the "default system include paths" into its own Lst
variable, and uses it only if sysIncPath is empty. This allows sysIncPath
to be filled in by the Makefile itself.)
via MAKEFLAGS. Instead of appending them directly to .MAKEFLAGS, put
them in .MAKEOVERRIDES (and ensure they are quoted). This is now done
in Var_Set when it exports VAR_CMD's.
Use ExportMAKEFLAGS() to export MAKEFLAGS, using the combined content
of .MAKEFLAGS and .MAKEOVERRIDES (with duplicate supression).
If .MAKEFLAGS is assigned to in a Makefile, ExportMAKEFLAGS is called again.
This allows a line like:
.MAKEOVERRIDES=
to effectively stop the exporting of the command line vars in MAKEFLAGS.
1. make -dx turns on DEBUG_SHELL which causes sh -x to be used where
possible.
2. PrintOnError() is now called when make is stopping due to an error.
This routine reports the curdir and the value of any variables listed
in MAKE_PRINT_VAR_ON_ERROR.
3. Variables set via command line, are propagated to child-makes via
MAKEFLAGS. This behaviour appears to be necessary for POSIX (according
to the GNU folk anyway).
4. Do not reset MAKEFILE when reading ".depend" as this rather eliminates the
usefulness of ${MAKEFILE}.
5. Added ${.newline} as a simple means of being able to include \n in the
result of a :@ loop expansion.
6. Set ${MAKE_VERSION} if defined. Need to come up with a useful value.

use -j; all make's in a recursive build cooperate to limit the total
number of jobs, using a token-passing scheme.
The current token passing algorithm is similar to the one implemented
by gmake; there is a single pipe which is inherited through the entire
process hierarchy; tokens are obtained by reading a byte from the
"read end" of the pipe, and are returned by writing them to the "write
end". This exact algorithm is likely to change in the future.
Implementation details:
- Use the new trace facility to allow measurement of the
effectiveness of different token-passing schemes
- Get a token in MakeStartJobs(), return it in Make_Update()
- Eliminate Job_Full() and the jobFull global since they are
redundant with token system.
- Add an "internal" -J option (to pass the token pipe fd's down to
submakes) and a -T option for tracing.
- Change how compatMake is forced so that -j means something when
inherited by submakes.
- When waiting for a token, poll the token-passing pipe as well as
the output pipes of existing jobs.
arguments names on one function being swapped (by a previous author).
Do not do any duplicate suppression when a source list is created. Instead:
* OP_MADE protects against trying to make the source multiple times.
* A new OP_MARK flag is introduced to suppress duplicates while expanding
the .ALLSRC variable and .USE targets.
This turns the O(n^2) insertion into O(n) in most cases.
This is tested with a `make build' and some special test cases.
