This document is a work-in-progress. As such, the information described here may not match the reality of the build system as of this writing. Once this document is completely in sync with reality, this paragraph will be removed. .Pp Discrepancies between this documentation and the current reality of implementation are noted specially, as with the note below: .Pp .Em Note : This document applies only to platforms which use the new toolchain as indicated by the default setting of .Sy TOOLCHAIN_MISSING in .Aq bsd.own.mk . Platforms which have not yet been switched to the new toolchain should continue building traditionally, using the notes specified in the file .Sy UPDATING . . .Sh REQUIREMENTS . .Nx is designed to be buildable on most POSIX-compliant host systems. The basic build procedure is the same whether compiling .Em natively (on the same .Nx architecture) or .Em cross compiling (on another architecture or OS). .Pp This source tree contains a special subtree, .Dq tools , which uses the host system to create a build toolchain for the target architecture. The host system must have at least C and C++ compilers in order to create the toolchain .Nm ( make is not required); all other tools are created as part of the .Nx build process. (See the environment variables section below if you need to override or manually select your compilers.) . .Sh FILES . .Ss Source tree layout . .Bl -tag -width "BUILDING.mdoc" .It Sy doc/BUILDING.mdoc This document (in -mdoc troff format; the original copy). .It Sy BUILDING This document (in plaintext). .It Sy tools/compat/README Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on non-NetBSD platforms. .It Sy Makefile The main Makefile for .Nx ; should only be run for native builds with an appropriately up-to-date version of .Nx .Xr make 1 . (For building from out-of-date systems or on a non-native host, see the .Nm build.sh shell script.) .It Sy UPDATING Special notes for updating from an earlier revision of .Nx . It is important to read this file before every build of an updated source tree. .It Sy build.sh Bourne-compatible shell script used for building the host build tools and the .Nx system from scratch. Can be used for both native and cross builds, and should be used instead of .Xr make 1 for any source tree that is updated and recompiled regularly. .It Sy crypto/dist/ , dist/ , gnu/dist/ Sources imported verbatim from third parties, without mangling the existing build structure. Other source trees in .Sy bin through .Sy usr.sbin use the .Nx .Xr make 1 .Dq reachover Makefile semantics when building these programs for a native host. .It Sy distrib/ , etc/ Sources for items used when making a full release snapshot, such as files installed in .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /etc on the destination system, boot media, and release notes. .It Sy regress/ Regression test harness. Can be cross-compiled, but only run natively. .It Sy sys/ .Nx kernel sources. .It Sy tools/ .Dq Reachover build structure for the host build tools. This has a special method of determining out-of-date status. .It Sy bin/ ... usr.sbin/ Sources to the .Nx userland (non-kernel) programs. If any of these directories are missing, they will be skipped during the build. .It Sy x11/ .Dq Reachover build structure for X11R6; the source is in .Sy X11SRCDIR . .El . .Ss Build tree layout . The .Nx build tree is described in .Xr hier 7 , and the release layout is described in .Xr release 7 . .Pp . .Sh CONFIGURATION . .Ss Environment variables .. Several environment variables control the behaviour of .Nx builds. . .Bl -tag -width "MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX" . . .It Sy HOST_SH Path name to a POSIX-compliant shell. If this is not set explicitly, then the default is set using heuristics dependent on the host platform, or from the shell under which .Nm build.sh is executed (if that can be determined), or using the first copy of .Pa sh found in .Sy PATH . If the host system's .Pa /bin/sh is not POSIX-compliant, we suggest that you build using commands like .Bd -literal -offset indent HOST_SH=/path/to/working/shell export HOST_SH ${HOST_SH} build.sh [options] .Ed . .It Sy HOST_CC Path name to C compiler used to create the toolchain. . .It Sy HOST_CXX Path name to C++ compiler used to create the toolchain. . .It Sy MACHINE Machine type. . .It Sy MACHINE_ARCH Machine architecture. . .It Sy MAKE Path name to invoke .Xr make 1 as. . .It Sy MAKEFLAGS Flags to invoke .Xr make 1 with. . .It Sy MAKEOBJDIR Directory to use as the .Sy .OBJDIR for the current directory. Used only if .Sy MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is not defined. .Sy MAKEOBJDIR can only be provided in the environment or via the .Fl O flag of .Nm build.sh . . .It Sy MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX Top level directory of the object directory tree. If this is defined, ${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/${.CURDIR} is used as the .Sy .OBJDIR for the current directory. The current directory may be read only. .Sy MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX can only be provided in the environment or via the .Fl M flag of .Nm build.sh . . .El . .Ss \*qmake\*q variables . .de YorN Can be set to .Dq yes or .Dq no . .. .de DFLT .Pp .Em Default : .. .de DFLTu .DFLT Unset. .. .de DFLTy .DFLT .Dq yes .. .de DFLTn .DFLT .Dq no .. Several variables control the behavior of .Nx builds. Unless otherwise specified, these variables may be set in either the process environment or the .Xr make 1 configuration file specified by .Sy MAKECONF . . .Bl -tag -width "MKCATPAGES" . .It Sy BUILDID Identifier for the build. The identifier will be appended to object directory names, and can be consulted in the .Xr make 1 configuration file in order to set additional build parameters, such as compiler flags. . .It Sy DESTDIR Directory to contain the built .Nx system. If set, special options are passed to the compilation tools to prevent their default use of the host system's .Sy /usr/include , /usr/lib , and so forth. This pathname should .Em not end with a slash .Pq / character (for installation into the system's root directory, set .Sy DESTDIR to an empty string). The directory must reside on a file system which supports long file names and hard links. .DFLT Empty string if .Sy USETOOLS is .Dq yes ; unset otherwise. .Pp .Em Note : .Sy build.sh will provide a default of .Pa destdir. Ns Sy MACHINE (in the top-level .Sy .OBJDIR ) unless run in .Sq expert mode . .It Sy MAKECONF The name of the .Xr make 1 configuration file. .Em Only settable in the process environment. .DFLT .Dq /etc/mk.conf . .It Sy MAKEVERBOSE Level of verbosity of status messages. Supported values: .Bl -tag -width xxx .It 0 No descriptive messages are shown. .It 1 Descriptive messages are shown. .It 2 Descriptive messages (prefixed with a .Sq # ) and command output is not suppressed. .El .DFLT 2 . .It Sy MKCATPAGES .YorN Indicates whether preformatted plaintext manual pages will be created during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKCRYPTO .YorN Indicates whether cryptographic code will be included in a build; provided for the benefit of countries that do not allow strong cryptography. Will not affect use of the standard low-security password encryption system, .Xr crypt 3 . .DFLTy . .It Sy MKDOC .YorN Indicates whether system documentation destined for .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /usr/share/doc will be installed during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKHOSTOBJ .YorN If set to .Dq yes , then for programs intended to be run on the compile host, the name, release, and architecture of the host operating system will be suffixed to the name of the object directory created by .Dq make obj . (This allows multiple host systems to compile NetBSD for a single target.) If set to .Dq no , then programs built to be run on the compile host will use the same object directory names as programs built to be run on the target. .DFLTn . .It Sy MKINFO .YorN Indicates whether GNU Info files, used for the documentation for most of the compilation tools, will be created and installed during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKLINT .YorN Indicates whether .Xr lint 1 will be run against portions of the .Nx source code during the build, and whether lint libraries will be installed into .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /usr/libdata/lint . .DFLTy . .It Sy MKMAN .YorN Indicates whether manual pages will be installed during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKNLS .YorN Indicates whether Native Language System locale zone files will be compiled and installed during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKOBJ .YorN Indicates whether object directories will be created when running .Dq make obj . If set to .Dq no , then all built files will be located inside the regular source tree. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKPIC .YorN Indicates whether shared objects and libraries will be created and installed during a build. If set to .Dq no , the entire built system will be statically linked. .DFLT Platform dependent. As of this writing, all platforms except .Sy sh3 default to .Dq yes . . .It Sy MKPICINSTALL .YorN Indicates whether the .Xr ar 1 format libraries .Sy ( lib*_pic.a ) , used to generate shared libraries, are installed during a build. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKPROFILE .YorN Indicates whether profiled libraries .Sy ( lib*_p.a ) will be built and installed during a build. .DFLT .Dq yes ; however, some platforms turn off .Sy MKPROFILE by default at times due to toolchain problems with profiled code. . .It Sy MKSHARE .YorN Indicates whether files destined to reside in .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /usr/share will be built and installed during a build. If set to .Dq no , then all of .Sy MKCATPAGES , MKDOC , MKINFO , MKMAN , and .Sy MKNLS will be set to .Dq no unconditionally. .DFLTy . .It Sy MKTTINTERP .YorN For X builds, decides if the TrueType bytecode interpreter is turned on. See .Pa http://www.freetype.org/patents.html for details. .DFLTn . .It Sy MKUNPRIVED .YorN Indicates whether an unprivileged install will occur. The user, group, permissions, and file flags, will not be set on the installed items; instead the information will be appended to a file called .Pa METALOG in .Sy DESTDIR . The contents of .Pa METALOG are used during the generation of the distribution tar files to ensure that the appropriate file ownership is stored. .DFLTn . .It Sy MKUPDATE .YorN Indicates whether all install operations intended to write to .Sy DESTDIR will compare file timestamps before installing, and skip the install phase if the destination files are up-to-date. This also has implications on full builds (see next subsection). .DFLTn . .It Sy MKX11 .YorN Indicates whether X11R6 is built from .Sy X11SRCDIR . .DFLTn . .It Sy TOOLDIR Directory to hold the host tools, once built. This directory should be unique to a given host system and .Nx source tree. (However, multiple targets may share the same .Sy TOOLDIR ; the target-dependent files have unique names.) If unset, a default based on the .Xr uname 1 information of the host platform will be created in the .Sy .OBJDIR of .Pa src . .DFLTu . .It Sy USETOOLS Indicates whether the tools specified by .Sy TOOLDIR should be used as part of a build in progress. Must be set to .Dq yes if cross-compiling. .Bl -tag -width "never" .It Sy yes Use the tools from .Sy TOOLDIR . .It Sy no Do not use the tools from .Sy TOOLDIR , but refuse to build native compilation tool components that are version-specific for that tool. .It Sy never Do not use the tools from .Sy TOOLDIR , even when building native tool components. This is similar to the traditional .Nx build method, but does .Em not verify that the compilation tools in use are up-to-date enough in order to build the tree successfully. This may cause build or runtime problems when building the whole .Nx source tree. .El .DFLT .Dq yes if building all or part of a whole .Nx source tree (detected automatically); .Dq no otherwise (to preserve traditional semantics of the .Aq bsd.*.mk .Xr make 1 include files). . .It Sy X11SRCDIR Directory containing the X11R6 source. The main X11R6 source is found in .Sy X11SRCDIR Ns Pa /xfree/xc . .DFLT .Dq /usr/xsrc . .El . .Ss \*qmake\*q variables for full builds These variables only affect the top level .Dq Makefile and do not affect manually building subtrees of the .Nx source code. . .Bl -tag -width "INSTALLWORLDDIR" . .It Sy INSTALLWORLDDIR Location for the .Dq make installworld target to install to. .DFLT .Dq / . .It Sy MKOBJDIRS .YorN Indicates whether object directories will be created automatically (via a .Dq make obj pass) at the start of a build. .DFLTn . .It Sy MKUPDATE .YorN If set, then in addition to the effects described for .Sy MKUPDATE=yes above, this implies the effects of .Sy NOCLEANDIR (i.e., .Dq make cleandir is avoided). .DFLTn . .It Sy NBUILDJOBS Now obsolete. Use the .Xr make 1 option .Fl j , instead (see below) .DFLTu . .It Sy NOCLEANDIR If set, avoids the .Dq make cleandir phase of a full build. This has the effect of allowing only changed files in a source tree to be recompiled. This can speed up builds when updating only a few files in the tree. .DFLTu . .It Sy NODISTRIBDIRS If set, avoids the .Dq make distrib-dirs phase of a full build. This skips running .Xr mtree 8 on .Sy DESTDIR , useful on systems where building as an unprivileged user, or where it is known that the system-wide mtree files have not changed. .DFLTu . .It Sy NOINCLUDES If set, avoids the .Dq make includes phase of a full build. This has the effect of preventing .Xr make 1 from thinking that some programs are out-of-date simply because the system include files have changed. However, this option should not be used when updating the entire .Nx source tree arbitrarily; it is suggested to use .Sy MKUPDATE=yes in that case. .DFLTu . .It Sy RELEASEDIR If set, specifies the directory to which a .Xr release 7 layout will be written at the end of a .Dq make release . .DFLTu .Pp .Em Note : .Sy build.sh will provide a default of .Pa releasedir (in the top-level .Sy .OBJDIR ) unless run in .Sq expert mode . .El . .Sh BUILDING . .Ss \*qmake\*q command line options This is not a summary of all the options available to .Xr make 1 ; only the options used most frequently with .Nx builds are listed here. . .Bl -tag -width "var=value" . .It Fl j Ar njob Run up to .Ar njob .Xr make 1 subjobs in parallel. Makefiles should use .WAIT or have explicit dependencies as necessary to enforce build ordering. If you see build failures with -j, please save complete build logs so the failures can be analyzed. . .It Fl m Ar dir Specify the default directory for searching for system Makefile segments, mainly the .Aq bsd.*.mk files. When building any full .Nx source tree, this should be set to the .Dq share/mk directory in the source tree. (This is set automatically when building from the top level.) . .It Fl n Display the commands that would have been executed, but do not actually execute them. This will still cause recursion to take place. . .It Fl V Ar var Print .Xr make 1 Ns 's idea of the value of .Ar var . Does not build any targets. . .It Em var=value Set the variable .Em var to .Em value , overriding any setting specified by the process environment, the .Sy MAKECONF configuration file, or the system Makefile segments. . .El . .Ss \*qmake\*q targets . These default targets may be built by running .Xr make 1 in any subtree of the .Nx source code. It is recommended that none of these be used from the top level Makefile; as a specific exception, .Dq make obj and .Dq make cleandir are useful in that context. . .Bl -tag -width "dependall" . .It Sy all Build programs, libraries, and preformatted documentation. . .It Sy clean Remove program and library object code files. . .It Sy cleandir Same as .Sy clean , but also remove preformatted documentation, dependency files generated by .Dq make depend , and any other files known to be created at build time. . .It Sy depend Create dependency files .Sy ( .depend ) containing more detailed information about the dependencies of source code on header files. Allows programs to be recompiled automatically when a dependency changes. . .It Sy dependall Does a .Dq make depend immediately followed by a .Dq make all . This improves cache locality of the build since both passes read the source files in their entirety. . .It Sy distclean Synonym for .Sy cleandir . . .It Sy includes Build and install system header files. Typically needed before any system libraries or programs can be built. . .It Sy install Install programs, libraries, and documentation into .Sy DESTDIR . Few files will be installed to .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /dev , .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /etc , .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /root or .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /var in order to prevent user supplied configuration data from being overwritten. .It Sy lint Run .Xr lint 1 against the C source code, where appropriate, and generate system-installed lint libraries. . .It Sy obj Create object directories to be used for built files, instead of building directly in the source tree. . .It Sy tags Create .Xr ctags 1 searchable function lists usable by the .Xr ex 1 and .Xr vi 1 text editors. . .El . .Ss \*qmake\*q targets for the top level . Additional .Xr make 1 targets are usable specifically from the top source level to facilitate building the entire .Nx source tree. . .Bl -tag -width "distribution" . .It Sy build Build the entire .Nx system. This orders portions of the source tree such that prerequisites will be built in the proper order. . .It Sy distribution Do a .Dq make build , and then install a full distribution into .Sy DESTDIR , including files in .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /dev , .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /etc , .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /root and .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /var . . .It Sy buildworld As per .Dq make distribution , except that it ensures that .Sy DESTDIR is not the root directory. . .It Sy installworld Install the distribution from .Sy DESTDIR to .Sy INSTALLWORLDDIR (which defaults to the root directory). Ensures that .Sy INSTALLWORLDDIR is not the root directory if cross compiling. .Pp .Em Note : It is highly recommended that you upgrade your kernel and reboot before performing this operation. . .It Sy sets Create distribution sets from .Sy DESTDIR into .Sy RELEASEDIR/MACHINE Ns Pa /binary/sets . Should be run after .Dq make distribution (as .Dq make build does not install all of the required files). . .It Sy sourcesets Create source sets of the source tree into .Sy RELEASEDIR Ns Pa /source/sets . . .It Sy syspkgs Create syspkgs from .Sy DESTDIR into .Sy RELEASEDIR/MACHINE Ns Pa /binary/syspkgs . Should be run after .Dq make distribution (as .Dq make build does not install all of the required files). . .It Sy release Do a .Dq make distribution , build kernels, distribution media, and install sets (this as per .Dq make sets ) , and then package the system into a standard release layout as described by .Xr release 7 . This requires that .Sy RELEASEDIR be set (see above). . .It iso-image Create a CD-ROM image in .Sy RELEASEDIR/MACHINE Ns Pa /installation/cdrom . RELEASEDIR must already have been populated by .Dq make release or equivalent. This requires the .Xr mkisofs 1 utility, which is not part of .Nx , but which can be installed from .Pa pkgsrc/sysutils/cdrtools . . .It Sy regression-tests Can only be run after building the regression tests in the directory .Dq regress . Runs the compiled regression tests on the local host. . .El . .Ss The \*qbuild.sh\*q script . This script file is a Bourne shell script designed to build the entire .Nx system on any host with a Bourne shell in .Sy /bin/sh , including many that are not POSIX compliant. Note that if a host system's .Sy /bin/sh is unusually old and broken, the Korn Shell .Sy ( /bin/ksh ) , if available, may be a usable alternative. .Pp All cross-compile builds, and most native builds, of the entire system should make use of .Sy build.sh rather than just running .Dq make . This way, the .Xr make 1 program will be bootstrapped properly, in case the host system has an older or incompatible .Dq make program. .Pp When compiling the entire system via .Sy build.sh , many .Xr make 1 variables are set for you in order to help encapsulate the build process. In the list of options below, variables that are automatically set by .Sy build.sh are noted where applicable. . .Pp The following operations are supported by .Sy build.sh : . .Bl -tag -width "distribution" . .It Sy build Build the system as per .Dq make build . This option implies the .Sy obj and .Sy tools operations. . .It Sy distribution Build a full distribution as per .Dq make distribution . This option implies the .Sy build operation. . .It Sy release Build a full release as per .Dq make release . This option implies the .Sy distribution operation. . .It Sy makewrapper Create the .Sy \*[toolprefix]make-MACHINE wrapper. This operation is automatically performed for any of the other operations. . .It Sy obj Perform .Dq make obj . . .It Sy tools Build and install the host tools from .Pa src/tools . . .It Sy install Ns = Ns Ar idir Install the contents of .Sy DESTDIR to .Ar idir , using .Dq make installworld . . .It Sy kernel Ns = Ns Ar kconf Build a new kernel. The .Ar kconf argument is the name of a configuration file suitable for use by .Xr config 1 . If .Ar kconf does not contain any .Sq / characters, the configuration file is expected to be found in the .Sy KERNCONFDIR directory, which is typically .Sy sys/arch/MACHINE/conf . The new kernel will be built in a subdirectory of .Sy KERNOBJDIR , which is typically .Sy sys/arch/MACHINE/compile or an associated object directory. In order to ensure that the kernel is built using up-to-date tools, it is strongly recommended that the tools be rebuilt (using the .Sy tools operation). . .It Sy releasekernel Ns = Ns Ar kconf Install a .Xr gzip 1 Ns ed copy of the kernel built by .Sy kernel Ns = Ns Ar kconf into .Sy RELEASEDIR/MACHINE Ns Pa /binary/kernel , usually as .Pa netbsd- Ns Ar kconf Ns Pa .gz , although the .Dq Pa netbsd prefix is determined from the .Dq Sy config directives in .Ar kconf . . .It Sy sets Perform .Dq make sets . . .It Sy sourcesets Perform .Dq make sourcesets . . .It Sy syspkgs Perform .Dq make syspkgs . . .It Sy iso-image Perform .Dq make iso-image . . .El . .Pp The following command line options alter the behaviour of the .Sy build.sh operations described above: . .Bl -tag -width "-T tools" . .It Fl a Ar arch Set the value of .Sy MACHINE_ARCH to .Ar arch . . .It Fl B Ar buildid Set the value of .Sy BUILDID to .Ar buildid . This will also append the build idenfitier to the name of the .Dq make wrapper script so that the resulting name is of the form .Dq Sy \*[toolprefix]make-MACHINE-BUILDID . . .It Fl D Ar dest Set the value of .Sy DESTDIR to .Ar dest . . .It Fl E Set .Sq expert mode. This overrides various sanity checks, and allows: .Sy DESTDIR does not have to be set to a non-root path for builds, and .Sy MKUNPRIVED=yes does not have to be set when building as a non-root user. .Pp .Em Note : It is highly recommended that you know what you are doing when you use this option. . .It Fl h Print a help message. . .It Fl j Ar njob Passed through to .Xr make 1 . Makefiles should use .WAIT or have explicit dependancies as necessary to enforce build ordering. If you see build failures with -j, please save complete build logs so the failures can be analyzed. . .It Fl M Ar obj Set .Sy MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to .Ar obj . Unsets .Sy MAKEOBJDIR . . .It Fl m Ar mach Set the value of .Sy MACHINE to .Ar mach . This will also override any value of .Sy MACHINE_ARCH in the process environment with a value deduced from .Ar mach , unless .Fl a is specified, or .Ar mach is a special case listed below. All cross builds require .Fl m , but if unset on a NetBSD host, the host's value of MACHINE will be detected and used automatically. .Pp Some machines support multiple values for .Sy MACHINE_ARCH . For a given value of .Ar mach , the following .Sy MACHINE and .Sy MACHINE_ARCH values will result: .Bl -column "evbmips-el" "MACHINE" "MACHINE_ARCH" -offset indent .It Sy mach Ta Sy "MACHINE" Ta Sy "MACHINE_ARCH" .It evbmips Ta evbmips Ta (not set) .It evbmips-eb Ta evbmips Ta mipseb .It evbmips-el Ta evbmips Ta mipsel .It evbsh3 Ta evbsh3 Ta (not set) .It evbsh3-eb Ta evbsh3 Ta sh3eb .It evbsh3-el Ta evbsh3 Ta sh3el .It sbmips Ta sbmips Ta (not set) .It sbmips-eb Ta sbmips Ta mipseb .It sbmips-el Ta sbmips Ta mipsel .El . .It Fl N Ar noiselevel Set the .Dq noisyness level of the build, by setting .Sy MAKEVERBOSE to .Ar noiselevel . . .It Fl n Show the commands that would be executed by .Sy build.sh , but do not make any changes. This is similar in concept to .Dq make -n . . .It Fl O Ar obj Create an appropriate transform macro for .Sy MAKEOBJDIR that will place the built object files under .Ar obj . For instance, a setting of .Sy /usr/obj will place build-time files under .Sy /usr/obj/bin , .Sy /usr/obj/lib , .Sy /usr/obj/usr.bin , and so forth. Unsets .Sy MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX . . .It Fl o Set the value of .Sy MKOBJDIRS to .Dq no . Otherwise, it will be automatically set to .Dq yes (which is opposite to the default behaviour). . .It Fl R Ar rel Set the value of .Sy RELEASEDIR to .Ar rel . . .It Fl r Remove the contents of .Sy DESTDIR and .Sy TOOLDIR before building (provides a clean starting point). This will skip deleting .Sy DESTDIR if building on a native system to the root directory. . .It Fl T Ar tools Set the value of .Sy TOOLDIR to .Ar tools . If set, the bootstrap .Dq make will only be rebuilt as needed (when the source files for .Xr make 1 change). . .It Fl U Set .Sy MKUNPRIVED=yes . . .It Fl u Set .Sy MKUPDATE=yes . . .It Xo .Fl V .Sm off .Ar var .Li = .Op Ar value .Sm on .Xc Set the environment variable .Ar var to an optional .Ar value . This is propagated to the .Sy \*[toolprefix]make wrapper. . .It Fl w Ar wrapper Create the .Sy \*[toolprefix]make wrapper script (see below) in a custom location, specified by .Ar wrapper . This allows, for instance, to place the wrapper in .Sy PATH automatically. Note that .Ar wrapper is the full name of the file, not just a directory name. . .It Fl X Ar x11src Set the value of .Sy X11SRCDIR to .Ar x11src . . .It Fl x Set .Sy MKX11=yes . . .It Fl Z Ar var Unset ("zap") the environment variable .Ar var . This is propagated to the .Sy \*[toolprefix]make wrapper. . .El . .Ss The \*q\*[toolprefix]make-MACHINE\*q wrapper script . If using the .Sy build.sh script to build .Nx , a .Sy \*[toolprefix]make-MACHINE script will be created in .Sy TOOLDIR/bin upon the first build to assist in building subtrees on a cross-compile host. .Pp .Sy \*[toolprefix]make-MACHINE can be invoked in lieu of .Xr make 1 , and will instead call the up-to-date version of .Dq \*[toolprefix]make installed into .Sy TOOLDIR/bin with several key variables pre-set, including .Sy MACHINE , MACHINE_ARCH , and .Sy TOOLDIR . .Sy build.sh will also set variables specified with .Fl V , and unset variables specified with .Fl Z . .Pp This script can be symlinked into a directory listed in .Sy PATH , or called with an absolute path. . .Sh EXAMPLES . .Bl -enum . .It .Li "% ./build.sh tools kernel=GENERIC" .Pp Build a new toolchain, and use the new toolchain to configure and build a new GENERIC kernel. . .It .Li "% ./build.sh -U distribution" .Pp Using unprivileged mode, build a complete distribution to a .Sy DESTDIR directory that .Sy build.sh selects (and will display). . .It .Li "# ./build.sh -U install=/" .Pp As root, install to .Pa / the distribution that was built by example 2. Even though this is run as root, .Fl U is required so that the permissions stored in .Sy DESTDIR Ns Pa /METALOG are correctly applied to the files as they're copied to .Pa / . . .It .Li "% ./build.sh -U -u release" .Pp Using unprivileged mode, build a complete release to .Sy DESTDIR and .Sy RELEASEDIR directories that .Sy build.sh selects (and will display). .Sy MKUPDATE=yes .Pq Fl u is set to prevent the .Dq make cleandir , so that if this is run after example 2, it doesn't need to redo that portion of the release build. .El . .Sh OBSOLETE VARIABLES . .Bl -tag -width "NBUILDJOBS" . .It Sy NBUILDJOBS Use the .Xr make 1 option .Fl j , instead. . .It Sy USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN The new toolchain is now the default. To disable, use .Sy TOOLCHAIN_MISSING=yes . .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr make 1 , .Xr hier 7 , .Xr release 7 , .Pa pkgsrc/sysutils/cdrtools . .Sh HISTORY . The .Nm build.sh based build scheme was introduced for .Nx 1.6 as .Sy USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN , and re-worked to .Sy TOOLCHAIN_MISSING after that. . .Sh BUGS . A few platforms are not yet using this build system.
