3 NAME
4 BUILDING - Procedure for building NetBSD from source code.
5
6 STATUS
7 This document is a work-in-progress. As such, the information described
8 here may not match the reality of the build system as of this writing.
9 Once this document is completely in sync with reality, this paragraph
10 will be removed.
11
12 Discrepancies between this documentation and the current reality of
13 implementation are noted specially, as with the note below:
14
15 Note: This document applies only to platforms which use the new toolchain
16 as indicated by the default setting of TOOLCHAIN_MISSING in <bsd.own.mk>.
17 Platforms which have not yet been switched to the new toolchain should
18 continue building traditionally, using the notes specified in the file
19 UPDATING.
20
21 REQUIREMENTS
22 NetBSD is designed to be buildable on most POSIX-compliant host systems.
23 The basic build procedure is the same whether compiling natively (on the
24 same NetBSD architecture) or cross compiling (on another architecture or
25 OS).
26
27 This source tree contains a special subtree, ``tools'', which uses the
28 host system to create a build toolchain for the target architecture. The
29 host system must have at least C and C++ compilers in order to create the
30 toolchain (make is not required); all other tools are created as part of
31 the NetBSD build process.
32
33 Note: A couple of host toolchain components are not yet available
34 in the tools directory. Also, some tools use non-POSIX, non-ANSI C
35 extensions and need to be standardized. As a result, cross-compil-
36 ing from systems other than NetBSD is not currently supported.

43 BUILDING This document (in plaintext).
44
45 tools/compat/README
46 Special notes for cross-hosting a NetBSD build on non-
47 NetBSD platforms.
48
49 Makefile The main Makefile for NetBSD; should only be run for
50 native builds with an appropriately up-to-date version of
51 NetBSD make(1). (For building from out-of-date systems or
52 on a non-native host, see the build.sh shell script.)
53
54 UPDATING Special notes for updating from an earlier revision of
55 NetBSD. It is important to read this file before every
56 build of an updated source tree.
57
58 build.sh Bourne-compatible shell script used for building the host
59 build tools and the NetBSD system from scratch. Can be
60 used for both native and cross builds, and should be used
61 instead of make(1) for any source tree that is updated and
62 recompiled regularly.
63
64 crypto/dist/, dist/, gnu/dist/
65 Sources imported verbatim from third parties, without man-
66 gling the existing build structure. Other source trees in
67 bin through usr.sbin use the NetBSD make(1) ``reachover''
68 Makefile semantics when building these programs for a
69 native host.
70
71 distrib/, etc/
72 Sources for items used when making a full release snap-
73 shot, such as files installed in DESTDIR/etc on the desti-
74 nation system, boot media, and release notes.
75
76 regress/ Regression test harness. Can be cross-compiled, but only
77 run natively.
78
79 sys/ NetBSD kernel sources.
80
81 tools/ ``Reachover'' build structure for the host build tools.
82 This has a special method of determining out-of-date sta-
83 tus.
84
85 bin/ ... usr.sbin/
86 Sources to the NetBSD userland (non-kernel) programs. If
87 any of these directories are missing, they will be skipped
88 during the build.
89
90 Build tree layout
91 The NetBSD build tree is described in hier(7), and the release layout is
92 described in release(7).
93
94 CONFIGURATION
95 Environment variables
96 Several environment variables control the behaviour of NetBSD builds.
97
98 MACHINE Machine type.
99
100 MACHINE_ARCH Machine architecture.
101
102 MAKE Path name to invoke make(1) as.
103
104 MAKEFLAGS Flags to invoke make(1) with.
105
106 MAKEOBJDIR Directory to use as the .OBJDIR for the current direc-
107 tory. Used only if MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is not defined.
108 MAKEOBJDIR can only be provided in the environment or
109 via the -O flag of build.sh.
110
111 MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX Top level directory of the object directory tree. If
112 this is defined, ${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/${.CURDIR} is used
113 as the .OBJDIR for the current directory. The current
114 directory may be read only. MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX can only
115 be provided in the environment or via the -M flag of
116 build.sh.
117
118 "make" variables
119 Several variables control the behavior of NetBSD builds. Unless other-
120 wise specified, these variables may be set in either the process environ-
121 ment or the make(1) configuration file specified by MAKECONF.
122
123 BUILDID Identifier for the build. The identifier will be appended to
124 object directory names, and can be consulted in the make(1)
125 configuration file in order to set additional build parame-
126 ters, such as compiler flags.
127
128 DESTDIR Directory to contain the built NetBSD system. If set, spe-
129 cial options are passed to the compilation tools to prevent
130 their default use of the host system's /usr/include,
131 /usr/lib, and so forth. This pathname should not end with a
132 slash (/) character (for installation into the system's root
133 directory, set DESTDIR to an empty string). The directory
134 must reside on a file system which supports long file names
135 and hard links.
136
137 Default: Empty string if USETOOLS is ``yes''; unset other-
138 wise.
139
140 Note: build.sh will provide a default of destdir.MACHINE (in
141 the top-level .OBJDIR) unless run in `expert' mode
142
143 MAKECONF The name of the make(1) configuration file. Only settable in
144 the process environment.
145
146 Default: ``/etc/mk.conf''
147
148 MAKEVERBOSE
149 Level of verbosity of status messages. Supported values:
150
151 0 No descriptive messages are shown.
152
153 1 Descriptive messages are shown.
154
155 2 Descriptive messages (prefixed with a `#') and command
156 output is not suppressed.
157
158 Default: 2
159
160 MKCATPAGES Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether prefor-
161 matted plaintext manual pages will be created during a build.
162
163 Default: ``yes''
164
165 MKCRYPTO Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether crypto-
166 graphic code will be included in a build; provided for the
167 benefit of countries that do not allow strong cryptography.
168 Will not affect use of the standard low-security password
169 encryption system, crypt(3).
170
171 Default: ``yes''
172
173 MKDOC Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether system
174 documentation destined for DESTDIR/usr/share/doc will be
175 installed during a build.
176
177 Default: ``yes''
178
179 MKHOSTOBJ Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. If set to ``yes'', then for
180 programs intended to be run on the compile host, the name,
181 release, and architecture of the host operating system will
182 be suffixed to the name of the object directory created by
183 ``make obj''. (This allows multiple host systems to compile
184 NetBSD for a single target.) If set to ``no'', then programs
185 built to be run on the compile host will use the same object
186 directory names as programs built to be run on the target.
187
188 Default: ``no''
189
190 MKINFO Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether GNU Info
191 files, used for the documentation for most of the compilation
192 tools, will be created and installed during a build.
193
194 Default: ``yes''
195
196 MKLINT Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether lint(1)
197 will be run against portions of the NetBSD source code during
198 the build, and whether lint libraries will be installed into
199 DESTDIR/usr/libdata/lint.
200
201 Default: ``yes''
202
203 MKMAN Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether manual
204 pages will be installed during a build.
205
206 Default: ``yes''
207
208 MKNLS Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether Native
209 Language System locale zone files will be compiled and
210 installed during a build.
211
212 Default: ``yes''
213
214 MKOBJ Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether object
215 directories will be created when running ``make obj''. If
216 set to ``no'', then all built files will be located inside
217 the regular source tree.
218
219 Default: ``yes''
220
221 MKPIC Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether shared
222 objects and libraries will be created and installed during a
223 build. If set to ``no'', the entire built system will be
224 statically linked.
225
226 Default: Platform dependent. As of this writing, all plat-
227 forms except sh3 default to ``yes''.
228
229 MKPICINSTALL
230 Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether the ar(1)
231 format libraries (lib*_pic.a), used to generate shared
232 libraries, are installed during a build.
233
234 Default: ``yes''
235
236 MKPROFILE Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether profiled
237 libraries (lib*_p.a) will be built and installed during a
238 build.
239
240 Default: ``yes''; however, some platforms turn off MKPROFILE
241 by default at times due to toolchain problems with profiled
242 code.
243
244 MKSHARE Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether files
245 destined to reside in DESTDIR/usr/share will be built and
246 installed during a build. If set to ``no'', then all of
247 MKCATPAGES, MKDOC, MKINFO, MKMAN, and MKNLS will be set to
248 ``no'' unconditionally.
249
250 Default: ``yes''
251
252 MKUNPRIVED Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether an
253 unprivileged install will occur. The user, group, permis-
254 sions, and file flags, will not be set on the installed item;
255 instead the information will be appended to a file called
256 METALOG in DESTDIR. The contents of METALOG is used during
257 the generation of the distribution tar files to ensure that
258 the appropriate file ownership is stored.
259
260 Default: ``no''
261
262 MKUPDATE Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether all
263 install operations intended to write to DESTDIR will compare
264 file timestamps before installing, and skip the install phase
265 if the destination files are up-to-date. This also has
266 implications on full builds (see next subsection).
267
268 Default: ``no''
269
270 TOOLDIR Directory to hold the host tools, once built. This directory
271 should be unique to a given host system and NetBSD source
272 tree. (However, multiple targets may share the same TOOLDIR;
273 the target-dependent files have unique names.) If unset, a
274 default based on the uname(1) information of the host plat-
275 form will be created in the .OBJDIR of src.
276
277 Default: Unset.
278
279 USETOOLS Indicates whether the tools specified by TOOLDIR should be
280 used as part of a build in progress. Must be set to ``yes''
281 if cross-compiling.
282
283 yes Use the tools from TOOLDIR.
284
285 no Do not use the tools from TOOLDIR, but refuse to build
286 native compilation tool components that are version-
287 specific for that tool.
288
289 never Do not use the tools from TOOLDIR, even when building
290 native tool components. This is similar to the tradi-
291 tional NetBSD build method, but does not verify that
292 the compilation tools in use are up-to-date enough in
293 order to build the tree successfully. This may cause
294 build or runtime problems when building the whole
295 NetBSD source tree.
296
297 Default: ``yes'' if building all or part of a whole NetBSD
298 source tree (detected automatically); ``no'' otherwise (to
299 preserve traditional semantics of the <bsd.*.mk> make(1)
300 include files).
301
302 "make" variables for full builds
303 These variables only affect the top level ``Makefile'' and do not affect
304 manually building subtrees of the NetBSD source code.
305
306 INSTALLWORLDDIR Location for the ``make installworld'' target to install
307 to.
308
309 Default: ``/''
310
311 MKOBJDIRS Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. Indicates whether
312 object directories will be created automatically (via a
313 ``make obj'' pass) at the start of a build.
314
315 Default: ``no''
316
317 MKUPDATE Can be set to ``yes'' or ``no''. If set, then in addi-
318 tion to the effects described for MKUPDATE=yes above,
319 this implies the effects of NOCLEANDIR (i.e., ``make
320 cleandir'' is avoided).
321
322 Default: ``no''
323
324 NBUILDJOBS Now obsolete. Use the make(1) option -j, instead (see
325 below)
326
327 Default: Unset.
328
329 NOCLEANDIR If set, avoids the ``make cleandir'' phase of a full
330 build. This has the effect of allowing only changed
331 files in a source tree to be recompiled. This can speed
332 up builds when updating only a few files in the tree.
333
334 Default: Unset.
335
336 NODISTRIBDIRS If set, avoids the ``make distrib-dirs'' phase of a full
337 build. This skips running mtree(8) on DESTDIR, useful
338 on systems where building as an unprivileged user, or
339 where it is known that the system-wide mtree files have
340 not changed.
341
342 Default: Unset.
343
344 NOINCLUDES If set, avoids the ``make includes'' phase of a full
345 build. This has the effect of preventing make(1) from
346 thinking that some programs are out-of-date simply
347 because the system include files have changed. However,
348 this option should not be used when updating the entire
349 NetBSD source tree arbitrarily; it is suggested to use
350 MKUPDATE=yes in that case.
351
352 Default: Unset.
353
354 RELEASEDIR If set, specifies the directory to which a release(7)
355 layout will be written at the end of a ``make release''.
356
357 Default: Unset.
358
359 Note: build.sh will provide a default of releasedir (in
360 the top-level .OBJDIR) unless run in `expert' mode
361
362 BUILDING
363 "make" command line options
364 This is only a summary of options available to make(1); only the options
365 used most frequently with NetBSD builds are listed here.
366
367 -j njob Run up to njob make(1) subjobs in parallel. Makefiles should
368 use .WAIT or have explicit dependancies as necessary to
369 enforce build ordering. If you see build failures with -j,
370 please save complete build logs so the failures can be ana-
371 lyzed.
372
373 -m dir Specify the default directory for searching for system Make-
374 file segments, mainly the <bsd.*.mk> files. When building any
375 full NetBSD source tree, this should be set to the
376 ``share/mk'' directory in the source tree. (This is set auto-
377 matically when building from the top level.)
378
379 -n Display the commands that would have been executed, but do not
380 actually execute them. This will still cause recursion to
381 take place.
382
383 -V var Print make(1)'s idea of the value of var. Does not build any
384 targets.
385
386 var=value Set the variable var to value, overriding any setting speci-
387 fied by the process environment, the MAKECONF configuration
388 file, or the system Makefile segments.
389
390 "make" targets
391 These default targets may be built by running make(1) in any subtree of
392 the NetBSD source code. It is recommended that none of these be used
393 from the top level Makefile; as a specific exception, ``make obj'' and
394 ``make cleandir'' are useful in that context.
395
396 all Build programs, libraries, and preformatted documentation.
397
398 clean Remove program and library object code files.
399
400 cleandir Same as clean, but also remove preformatted documentation,
401 dependency files generated by ``make depend'', and any other
402 files known to be created at build time. ``make distclean''
403 may be used as a synonym, for familiarity with a similar well-
404 known convention.
405
406 depend Create dependency files (.depend) containing more detailed
407 information about the dependencies of source code on header
408 files. Allows programs to be recompiled automatically when a
409 dependency changes.
410
411 dependall Does a ``make depend'' immediately followed by a ``make all''.
412 This improves cache locality of the build since both passes
413 read the source files in their entirety.
414
415 includes Build and install system header files. Typically needed
416 before any system libraries or programs can be built.
417
418 install Install programs, libraries, and documentation into DESTDIR.
419 Few files will be installed to DESTDIR/dev, DESTDIR/etc,
420 DESTDIR/root or DESTDIR/var in order to prevent user supplied
421 configuration data from being overwritten.
422
423 lint Run lint(1) against the C source code, where appropriate, and
424 generate system-installed lint libraries.
425
426 obj Create object directories to be used for built files, instead
427 of building directly in the source tree.
428
429 tags Create ctags(1) searchable function lists usable by the ex(1)
430 and vi(1) text editors.
431
432 "make" targets for the top level
433 Additional make(1) targets are usable specifically from the top source
434 level to facilitate building the entire NetBSD source tree.
435
436 build Build the entire NetBSD system. This orders portions of
437 the source tree such that prerequisites will be built in
438 the proper order.
439
440 distribution Do a ``make build'', and then install a full distribution
441 into DESTDIR, including files in DESTDIR/dev, DESTDIR/etc,
442 DESTDIR/root and DESTDIR/var.
443
444 buildworld As per ``make distribution'', except that it ensures that
445 DESTDIR is not the root directory.
446
447 installworld Install the distribution from DESTDIR to INSTALLWORLDDIR
448 (which defaults to the root directory). Ensures that
449 INSTALLWORLDDIR is the not root directory if cross compil-
450 ing.
451
452 Note: It is highly recommended that you upgrade your kernel
453 and reboot before performing this operation.
454
455 sets Create distribution sets from DESTDIR into
456 RELEASEDIR/MACHINE/binary/sets. Should be run after ``make
457 distribution'' (as ``make build'' does not install all of
458 the required files).
459
460 sourcesets Create source sets of the source tree into
461 RELEASEDIR/source/sets.
462
463 release Do a ``make distribution'', build kernels, distribution
464 media, and install sets (this as per ``make sets''), and
465 then package the system into a standard release layout as
466 described by release(7). This requires that RELEASEDIR be
467 set (see above).
468
469 regression-tests
470 Can only be run after building the regression tests in the
471 directory ``regress''. Runs the compiled regression tests
472 on the local host.
473
474 The "build.sh" script
475 This script file is a Bourne shell script designed to build the entire
476 NetBSD system on any host with a Bourne shell in /bin/sh, including many
477 that are not POSIX compliant. Note that if a host system's /bin/sh is
478 unusually old and broken, the Korn Shell (/bin/ksh), if available, may be
479 a usable alternative.
480
481 All cross-compile builds, and most native builds, of the entire system
482 should make use of build.sh rather than just running ``make''. This way,
483 the make(1) program will be bootstrapped properly, in case the host sys-
484 tem has an older or incompatible ``make'' program.
485
486 When compiling the entire system via build.sh, many make(1) variables are
487 set for you in order to help encapsulate the build process. In the list
488 of options below, variables that are automatically set by build.sh are
489 noted where applicable.
490
491 The following operations are supported by build.sh:
492
493 build Build the system as per ``make build''. This option
494 implies the obj and tools operations.
495
496 distribution Build a full distribution as per ``make distribution''.
497 This option implies the build operation.
498
499 release Build a full release as per ``make release''. This option
500 implies the distribution operation.
501
502 makewrapper Create the nbmake-MACHINE wrapper. This operation is auto-
503 matically performed for any of the other operations.
504
505 obj Perform ``make obj''.
506
507 tools Build and install the host tools from src/tools.
508
509 install=idir Install the contents of DESTDIR to idir, using ``make
510 installworld''.
511
512 kernel=kconf Build a new kernel. The kconf argument is the name of a
513 configuration file suitable for use by config(8). If kconf
514 does not contain any `/' characters, the configuration file
515 is expected to be found in the KERNCONFDIR directory, which
516 is typically sys/arch/MACHINE/conf. The new kernel will be
517 built in a subdirectory of KERNOBJDIR, which is typically
518 sys/arch/MACHINE/compile or an associated object directory.
519 In order to ensure that the kernel is built using up-to-
520 date tools, it is strongly recommended that the tools be
521 rebuilt (using the tools operation).
522
523 releasekernel=kconf
524 Install a gzip(1)ed copy of the kernel built by
525 kernel=kconf into RELEASEDIR/MACHINE/binary/kernel, usually
526 as netbsd-kconf.gz, although the ``netbsd'' prefix is
527 determined from the ``config'' directives in kconf.
528
529 sets Perform ``make sets''.
530
531 sourcesets Perform ``make sourcesets''.
532
533 The following command line options alter the behaviour of the above oper-
534 ations: The following command line options alter the behaviour of the
535 build.sh operations described above:
536
537 -a arch Set the value of MACHINE_ARCH to arch.
538
539 -B buildid
540 Set the value of BUILDID to buildid. This will also append the
541 build idenfitier to the name of the ``make'' wrapper script so
542 that the resulting name is of the form
543 ``nbmake-MACHINE-BUILDID''.
544
545 -D dest Set the value of DESTDIR to dest.
546
547 -E Set `expert' mode. This overrides various sanity checks, and
548 allows: DESTDIR does not have to be set to a non-root path for
549 builds, and MKUNPRIVED=yes does not have to be set when build-
550 ing as a non-root user.
551
552 Note: It is highly recommended that you know what you are doing
553 when you use this option.
554
555 -j njob Passed through to make(1). Makefiles should use .WAIT or have
556 explicit dependancies as necessary to enforce build ordering.
557 If you see build failures with -j, please save complete build
558 logs so the failures can be analyzed.
559
560 -M obj Set MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to obj. Unsets MAKEOBJDIR.
561
562 -m mach Set the value of MACHINE to mach. This will also override any
563 value of MACHINE_ARCH in the process environment with a value
564 deduced from mach, unless -a is specified, or mach is a special
565 case listed below. All cross builds require -m, but if unset
566 on a NetBSD host, the host's value of MACHINE will be detected
567 and used automatically.
568
569 Some machines support multiple values for MACHINE_ARCH. For a
570 given value of mach, the following MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH
571 values will result:
572
573 mach MACHINE MACHINE_ARCH
574 evbmips evbmips (not set)
575 evbmips-eb evbmips mipseb
576 evbmips-el evbmips mipsel
577 evbsh3 evbsh3 (not set)
578 evbsh3-eb evbsh3 sh3eb
579 evbsh3-el evbsh3 sh3el
580 sbmips sbmips (not set)
581 sbmips-eb sbmips mipseb
582 sbmips-el sbmips mipsel
583
584 -N noiselevel
585 Set the ``noisyness'' level of the build, by setting
586 MAKEVERBOSE to noiselevel.
587
588 -n Show the commands that would be executed by build.sh, but do
589 not make any changes. This is similar in concept to ``make
590 -n''.
591
592 -O obj Create an appropriate transform macro for MAKEOBJDIR that will
593 place the built object files under obj. For instance, a set-
594 ting of /usr/obj will place build-time files under
595 /usr/obj/bin, /usr/obj/lib, /usr/obj/usr.bin, and so forth.
596 Unsets MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX.
597
598 -o Set the value of MKOBJDIRS to ``no''. Otherwise, it will be
599 automatically set to ``yes'' (which is opposite to the default
600 behaviour).
601
602 -R rel Set the value of RELEASEDIR to rel.
603
604 -r Remove the contents of DESTDIR and TOOLDIR before building
605 (provides a clean starting point). This will skip deleting
606 DESTDIR if building on a native system to the root directory.
607
608 -T tools Set the value of TOOLDIR to tools. If set, the bootstrap
609 ``make'' will only be rebuilt as needed (when the source files
610 for make(1) change).
611
612 -U Set MKUNPRIVED=yes.
613
614 -u Set MKUPDATE=yes.
615
616 -V var=[value]
617 Set the environment variable var to an optional value. This is
618 propagated to the nbmake wrapper.
619
620 -w wrapper
621 Create the nbmake wrapper script (see below) in a custom loca-
622 tion, specified by wrapper. This allows, for instance, to
623 place the wrapper in PATH automatically. Note that wrapper is
624 the full name of the file, not just a directory name.
625
626 -Z var Unset ("zap") the environment variable var. This is propagated
627 to the nbmake wrapper.
628
629 The "nbmake-MACHINE" wrapper script
630 If using the build.sh script to build NetBSD, a nbmake-MACHINE script
631 will be created in TOOLDIR/bin upon the first build to assist in building
632 subtrees on a cross-compile host.
633
634 nbmake-MACHINE can be invoked in lieu of make(1), and will instead call
635 the up-to-date version of ``nbmake'' installed into TOOLDIR/bin with sev-
636 eral key variables pre-set, including MACHINE, MACHINE_ARCH, and TOOLDIR.
637 build.sh will also set variables specified with -V, and unset variables
638 specified with -Z.
639
640 This script can be symlinked into a directory listed in PATH, or called
641 with an absolute path.
642
643 EXAMPLES
644 1. % ./build.sh tools kernel=GENERIC
645
646 Build a new toolchain, and use the new toolchain to configure and
647 build a new GENERIC kernel.
648
649 2. % ./build.sh -U distribution
650
651 Using unprivileged mode, build a complete distribution to a DESTDIR
652 directory that build.sh selects (and will display).
653
654 3. # ./build.sh -U install=/
655
656 As root, install to / the distribution that was built by example 2.
657 Even though this is run as root, -U is required so that the permis-
658 sions stored in DESTDIR/METALOG are correctly applied to the files
659 as they're copied to /.
660
661 4. % ./build.sh -U -u release
662
663 Using unprivileged mode, build a complete release to DESTDIR and
664 RELEASEDIR directories that build.sh selects (and will display).
665 MKUPDATE=yes (-u) is set to prevent the ``make cleandir'', so that
666 if this is run after example 2, it doesn't need to redo that portion
667 of the release build.
668
669 OBSOLETE VARIABLES
670 NBUILDJOBS Use the make(1) option -j, instead.
671
672 USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN
673 The new toolchain is now the default. To disable, use
674 TOOLCHAIN_MISSING=yes.
675
676 SEE ALSO

678
679 HISTORY
680 The build.sh based build scheme was introduced for NetBSD 1.6 as
681 USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN, and re-worked to TOOLCHAIN_MISSING after that.
682
683 BUGS
684 A few platforms are not yet using this build system.
