UPDATING revision 1.121
11.121Slukem$NetBSD: UPDATING,v 1.121 2004/05/16 11:33:44 lukem Exp $ 21.1Sabs 31.1SabsThis file is intended to be a brief introduction to the build 41.1Sabsprocess and a reference on what to do if something doesn't work. 51.1Sabs 61.1SabsFor a more detailed description see Makefile. 71.1Sabs 81.1SabsRecent changes: 91.1Sabs^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 101.99Smrg 111.121Slukem20040516: 121.121Slukem The end-user modifiable X11 configuration has been moved 131.121Slukem from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/<dir> to /etc/X11/<dir>. 141.121Slukem Ensure that src and xsrc is up to date, and run 151.121Slukem "make cleandir" in src/x11 before your next build. 161.121Slukem 171.119Satatat20040426: 181.119Satatat Support for the original dynamic sysctl node structure has 191.119Satatat been removed in favor of the newer layout. This affects 201.119Satatat consumers of the create and delete interface, as well as 211.119Satatat the dynamic discovery mechanism. This is believed only to 221.119Satatat be the sysctl(8) binary itself, at this point in time, so 231.119Satatat the only effect of this should be that a sysctl binary 241.119Satatat built from sources dated between 2003/12/04 and 2004/03/24 251.119Satatat will not work on a kernel built from sources dated after 261.119Satatat 2004/04/25. If you need a new sysctl binary but build.sh 271.119Satatat does not work, make sure that your revision of 281.120Satatat src/sys/sys/sysctl.h is 1.112 (or later), and then the 291.120Satatat do the following: 301.119Satatat 311.120Satatat cd /usr/src (or wherever your source tree is) 321.120Satatat make USETOOLS=no includes 331.120Satatat cd lib/libc 341.120Satatat make USETOOLS=no dependall install 351.120Satatat cd ../../sbin/sysctl 361.119Satatat make USETOOLS=no dependall install 371.119Satatat 381.118Sdbj20040425: 391.118Sdbj The ffs superblock issues listed below under 20040109 and 20030402 401.118Sdbj are now automatically addressed by the /etc/rc.d/fixsb script or by 411.118Sdbj sysinst when it checks a a filesystem. The manual fsck_ffs -b16 -c4 421.118Sdbj invocation mentioned below will continue to work and is now 431.118Sdbj automated by those scripts. Note that under certain circumstances, 441.118Sdbj affected filesystems upgraded to a -current kernel first before 451.118Sdbj upgrading their userland with the fixsb and fsck_ffs fixes may 461.118Sdbj encounter a 'freeing free inode' panic when writing to the affected 471.118Sdbj filesystem, so it is a good idea to repair the filesystem as soon as 481.118Sdbj possible. For more details on the fixsb script, see pr install/25138. 491.118Sdbj 501.115Schristos20040418: 511.121Slukem statfs(2) and friends have been replaced with statvfs(2). Before 521.115Schristos installing a newly build userland make sure that you are running 531.115Schristos a newly built kernel with COMPAT_20 set. In addition your libc 541.115Schristos build might not work (undefined SYS_statfs symbol) because make 551.115Schristos clean does not know how to remove files it does not know about 561.116Schristos anymore. Manually remove all generated .S sources and objects 571.116Schristos from the libc build directory. 581.115Schristos 591.114Sjmc20040326: 601.114Sjmc The method by which athhal-elf.o gets pulled into i386 kernel builds 611.117Sjmc has been changed. The file is now stored as a uuencoded file in CVS 621.114Sjmc and the generated Makefile will use the new .uue rules from bsd.file.mk 631.114Sjmc to build it. 641.114Sjmc 651.114Sjmc This means you must have the latest bsd.files.mk installed when 661.114Sjmc building a kernel without USETOOLS=yes. 671.114Sjmc 681.113Sdan20040318: 691.113Sdan A bug in the cgd(4) blowfish code was corrected, without 701.113Sdan provision of backwards compatibility, after several public 711.113Sdan notices over several months. Users of cgd with blowfish cipher 721.113Sdan ONLY must dump their data before updating their kernels, and 731.113Sdan recreate cgd's and restore data using the new kernel. See 741.113Sdan (recent message to current-users, URL when mail-index has updated) 751.113Sdan 761.108Sbjh2120040313: 771.108Sbjh21 On acorn32, the opms and qms drivers have been withdrawn, and 781.108Sbjh21 the old wsqms driver is now called qms. Kernel config files 791.108Sbjh21 will need updating. See the ones in sys/arch/acorn32/conf 801.108Sbjh21 for examples. 811.108Sbjh21 821.106Sbjh2120040125: 831.106Sbjh21 On acorn32, the beep and sysbeep devices are no longer 841.106Sbjh21 needed, and will need to be deleted from kernel configuration 851.106Sbjh21 files. 861.105Sbjh21 871.102Sdbj20040109: 881.102Sdbj Compatibility for old ffs superblock layouts has been 891.102Sdbj added, and the restrictive fsck checks have been reenabled 901.102Sdbj when using those layouts. If you have been using -current 911.102Sdbj since 20030402, you may find that fsck again signals fatal 921.110Sdbj superblock mismatches. To repair, make sure you have 931.111Ssimonb an updated fsck_ffs and then you can use fsck_ffs -b 16 -c 4 941.109Sdbj to complete the filesystem upgrade. A message has 951.111Ssimonb been added to the kernel which should detect this problem. 961.111Ssimonb See the following discussion for more information: 971.112Skeihan http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/current-users/2004/01/11/0022.html 981.102Sdbj 991.99Smrg20031203: 1001.100Skeihan New binutils builds may fail due to old dependencies. 1011.99Smrg It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that 1021.99Smrg the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly. 1031.98Swiz 1041.98Swiz20031111: 1051.98Swiz A newer mkdep is needed.

This should only 1161.111Ssimonb affect users who installed or upgraded in September of 2003. 1171.109Sdbj A small utility program was posted to tech-kern which 1181.111Ssimonb should fix this problem, and a warning message was added 1191.111Ssimonb to the kernel which should discover and warn about it. See 1201.111Ssimonb http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2003/10/07/0005.html 1211.109Sdbj 1221.96Schristos20030906: 1231.96Schristos With the addition of siginfo support the old signal trampoline 1241.96Schristos code has been deprecated to COMPAT_16. Make sure that your running 1251.96Schristos kernel has COMPAT_16 enabled before building userland. 1261.94Schristos 1271.94Schristos20030801: 1281.95Swiz With the new openssl, there is some header and library shuffling. 1291.94Schristos rm -f /usr/include/des.h /usr/include/kerberosIV/* /lib/libdes* \ 1301.95Swiz /usr/lib/libdes* before building. 1311.92Swiz 1321.92Swiz20030703: 1331.92Swiz Texinfo was updated to 4.6. To avoid failures when trying to 1341.92Swiz build the included texinfo files, do: 1351.92Swiz 1361.92Swiz cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo 1371.92Swiz make MKINFO=no dependall install 1381.90Swiz 1391.90Swiz20030630: 1401.101Sjunyoung Groff was updated to 1.19; it's probably necessary to do 1411.91Swiz cd share/mk && make install 1421.90Swiz cd src/gnu/usr.bin/groff 1431.90Swiz make MKMAN=no dependall install 1441.90Swiz (untested). 1451.89Schristos 1461.89Schristos20030516: 1471.89Schristos Due to bugs in the export handling code, invalid export lines 1481.89Schristos were accepted before and caused the kernel to panic when 1491.89Schristos mountd got restarted because it freed memory that had already 1501.89Schristos been freed. This has been fixed and the kernel checks 1511.89Schristos export addresses very strictly. If you upgrade your kernel, 1521.89Schristos make sure you also upgrade mountd, because if your export 1531.89Schristos file contains lines with an old inet4 address syntax (i.e. 1541.89Schristos a.b.c or a.b or a), they will get rejected by the new kernel. 1551.87Sbjh21 1561.87Sbjh2120030402: 1571.87Sbjh21 The superblock layout for FFS was changed. If you have 1.6 1581.87Sbjh21 fsck binaries, they will signal a fatal superblock mismatch 1591.87Sbjh21 with the first alternate, because they compare too many 1601.87Sbjh21 fields (even ones that aren't useful). If possible, upgrade 1611.87Sbjh21 your fsck_ffs binary before using a new kernel. 1621.87Sbjh21 None of this signals actual filesystem damage. 1631.85Satatat 1641.85Satatat20030324: 1651.85Satatat sendmail version 8.12.8 was imported. Since sendmail is 1661.85Satatat now setgid to the smmsp group, and runs in "collection" 1671.85Satatat mode for most common activities, there is a new config 1681.85Satatat file called submit.cf that needs to live in /etc/mail. 1691.85Satatat The generic submit.cf sample in /usr/share/sendmail/cf 1701.85Satatat is named netbsd-msp.cf. Upgrading your regular sendmail 1711.85Satatat configuration file is also strongly advised. 1721.85Satatat 1731.85Satatat See the section named "MESSAGE SUBMISSION PROGRAM" in 1741.85Satatat the updated /usr/share/sendmail/README file for more 1751.85Satatat information. 1761.82Swiz 1771.82Swiz20030117: 1781.82Swiz Texinfo was updated to 4.3. To avoid failures when trying to 1791.82Swiz build the included texinfo files, do: 1801.82Swiz 1811.82Swiz cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo 1821.82Swiz make MKINFO=no dependall install 1831.81Slukem 1841.81Slukem20021223: 1851.81Slukem The METALOG format changed slightly, to remove the leading 1861.81Slukem "${DESTDIR}" from path names. 1871.81Slukem This only affects people building with UNPRIVED. 1881.81Slukem For complete safety, remove the DESTDIR entirely and 1891.81Slukem update tools/mtree, before running make build. 1901.88Sitojun 1911.88Sitojun20021219: 1921.88Sitojun CVS repository layout was changed. See the following for details 1931.88Sitojun if you are using (anonymous) cvs to update your tree. 1941.88Sitojun 1951.93Ssalo http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/netbsd-announce/2002/12/19/0000.html 1961.80Slukem 1971.80Slukem20021219: 1981.80Slukem install(1) had a '-N dbdir' option added, to specify an 1991.80Slukem alternate location to look up users & groups (instead 2001.80Slukem of the host system passwd(5) and group(5) databases). 2011.80Slukem 2021.80Slukem The build system was modified to take advantage of 2031.80Slukem this option (using ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc), so if you 2041.83Skei use USETOOLS==no, you may have to rebuild and 2051.80Slukem reinstall usr.bin/xinstall first. 2061.78Slukem 2071.78Slukem20021130: 2081.78Slukem fparseln(3) moved from libutil to libc. 2091.78Slukem If building to DESTDIR=/, reinstall the includes 2101.78Slukem and rebuild libc: 2111.78Slukem make includes 2121.78Slukem make do-lib-libc 2131.78Slukem If using build.sh, "cd tools/compat && make clean" 2141.78Slukem before rebuilding the tools. 2151.77Slukem 2161.77Slukem20021126: 2171.77Slukem The mk.conf(5) variable SYS_INCLUDE has been deprecated, 2181.77Slukem including the optional "SYS_INCLUDE=symlinks" support. 2191.77Slukem All header files, including <sys/*.h> are copied into 2201.77Slukem /usr/include. 2211.76Sthorpej 2221.76Sthorpej20021121: 2231.76Sthorpej The C run-time support files crtbegin.o and crtend.o 2241.76Sthorpej (and their companions crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o) were 2251.76Sthorpej split up, with new crti.o and crtn.o files resulting. 2261.76Sthorpej This means that libtool needs to be rebuilt once the 2271.76Sthorpej new libraries are installed. The process of rebuilding 2281.76Sthorpej libtool will cause it to automatically notice the new 2291.76Sthorpej required files, but it *must* be rebuilt in order to 2301.76Sthorpej do this. 2311.76Sthorpej 2321.76Sthorpej An out-of-date libtool will result in shared libraries 2331.76Sthorpej which lack _init() and _fini() routines, which means that 2341.76Sthorpej their global contructors/destructors will not be invoked. 2351.75Sthorpej 2361.75Sthorpej20021121: 2371.75Sthorpej A bug related to how ARM ELF objects were tagged has been 2381.75Sthorpej corrected. 2391.75Sthorpej 2401.75Sthorpej NetBSD ARM ELF uses the soft-VFP floating point model by 2411.75Sthorpej default. However, the assembler lacked support for marking 2421.75Sthorpej objects as using the VFP floating point format, and the 2431.79Swiz compiler was not properly passing the flag indicating "soft-VFP" 2441.75Sthorpej to the assembler. 2451.75Sthorpej 2461.75Sthorpej Unfortunately, this means that the linker will now consider 2471.75Sthorpej old (i.e. not marked "softvfp") NetBSD ARM ELF objects to be 2481.75Sthorpej incompatible with new (properly marked) objects. 2491.75Sthorpej 2501.75Sthorpej The problem will only manifest itself if you attempt to compile 2511.75Sthorpej a new program using the fixed toolchain, and link that program 2521.75Sthorpej against old libraries which do not have the proper "softvfp" 2531.75Sthorpej markings. ALL OF YOUR EXISTING BINARIES AND SHARED LIBRARIES 2541.75Sthorpej WILL CONTINUE TO WORK PROPERLY. 2551.75Sthorpej 2561.75Sthorpej The only work-around for the problem is to recompile all of 2571.75Sthorpej the libraries on the system. The easiest way to do this for 2581.79Swiz system libraries is to install a binary snapshot; they are 2591.93Ssalo generally available on releng.NetBSD.org. Any packages you 2601.75Sthorpej have installed which supply libraries will have to be recompiled 2611.75Sthorpej if you wish to link new programs against those libraries. 2621.75Sthorpej 2631.75Sthorpej If you have questions about this matter, please contact 2641.93Ssalo port-arm@NetBSD.org. 2651.73Sprovos 2661.73Sprovos20021011: 2671.73Sprovos Systrace has been improved to support privilege elevation. 2681.73Sprovos Updating the kernel requires the userland part of systrace 2691.79Swiz to be rebuilt. 2701.72Sthorpej 2711.72Sthorpej20021010: 2721.72Sthorpej The config(8) grammar was changed to allow options to register 2731.72Sthorpej dependencies on attributes, as well as other options. Users 2741.72Sthorpej must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new 2751.72Sthorpej kernel. 2761.70Sthorpej 2771.70Sthorpej20021009: 2781.70Sthorpej A new attribute dependency syntax was introduced to config(8), 2791.70Sthorpej which is now used by the SCSI configuration description. Users 2801.71Swiz must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new 2811.70Sthorpej kernel. 2821.69Sthorpej 2831.69Sthorpej20021003: 2841.69Sthorpej Several changes have been made to the autoconfiguration 2851.69Sthorpej framework. Users must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config 2861.69Sthorpej before building a new kernel. 2871.74Sjschauma 2881.74Sjschauma20021001: 2891.74Sjschauma The i386mp branch has been merged. To compile a kernel, users 2901.74Sjschauma will need to add the option 'cpu* at mainbus?' to their configuration 2911.74Sjschauma file. Multiprocessor kernels will need 2921.74Sjschauma ioapic* at mainbus? apid ? 2931.74Sjschauma options MULTIPROCESSOR 2941.74Sjschauma options COM_MPLOCK 2951.68Slukem 2961.68Slukem20020922: 2971.68Slukem MKDYNAMICROOT=yes enabled by default, which means that 2981.68Slukem certain shared libraries are installed into /lib, the shared 2991.68Slukem linker is installed into /libexec, and all programs in /bin 3001.68Slukem and /sbin are dynamically linked. 3011.68Slukem If you do not use "make build", you should ensure that 3021.68Slukem you have the libraries and shared linker in the new locations, 3031.68Slukem with: 3041.68Slukem make do-lib-csu do-lib-libc do-lib do-gnu-lib do-ld.elf_so 3051.67Slukem 3061.67Slukem20020917: 3071.67Slukem USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN has been replaced with: 3081.67Slukem - TOOLCHAIN_MISSING -- set to "yes" on platforms for which 3091.67Slukem there is no working in-tree toolchain (hppa, ns32k, sh5, 3101.67Slukem x86_64). 3111.67Slukem - EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN -- if defined by the user, points to the 3121.79Swiz root of an external toolchain (e.g. /usr/local/gnu). This 3131.67Slukem enables the cross-build framework even for TOOLCHAIN_MISSING 3141.67Slukem platforms. 3151.66Sgehenna 3161.66Sgehenna20020906: 3171.66Sgehenna gehenna-devsw has been merged into the trunk.

Bug fixes to config(8) are 4311.46Sthorpej required in order for this to work properly. Make sure 4321.46Sthorpej to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting 4331.46Sthorpej to build a new kernel. 4341.46Sthorpej 4351.45Syamt20011030: 4361.45Syamt libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1) 4371.45Syamt before building libc. 4381.43Smason 4391.44Stv20011029: 4401.44Stv The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or 4411.44Stv see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build 4421.44Stv procedure in great detail. BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN 4431.44Stv build process, are intended in the long run to replace this 4441.44Stv manual update log. 4451.44Stv 4461.44Stv Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the 4471.44Stv BUILDING document for caveats. Generally, BUILDING supersedes 4481.44Stv UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of 4491.44Stv by the new build system. 4501.42Sperry 4511.42Sperry20011028: 4521.42Sperry src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle 4531.42Sperry symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that 4541.42Sperry prevented this was corrected. 4551.42Sperry 4561.42Sperry Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall 4571.42Sperry Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work 4581.42Sperry for you. 4591.40Slukem 4601.40Slukem20011006: 4611.40Slukem /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of 4621.40Slukem absolute path support added to mtree(8).

Since it 4811.31Senami requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before 4821.31Senami building gnu/usr.bin/grep. To install new texinfo, please follow 4831.31Senami the instruction described in 20010726 entry. 4841.30Senami 4851.64Ssommerfe20010803: 4861.41Swiz (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like 4871.111Ssimonb `fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand. To build the 4881.64Ssommerfe kernel successfully, you need to build and install a new toolchain, 4891.64Ssommerfe (i.e., build.sh -t) or (temporarily) comment out "options I686_CPU" 4901.64Ssommerfe from your kernel configuration until you rebuild your userland. 4911.64Ssommerfe See 20011029 above and BUILDING file in this directory for more information. 4921.64Ssommerfe [updated 20020630 since i386 gas moved when USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN enabled] 4931.29Sbjh21 4941.29Sbjh2120010731: 4951.29Sbjh21 Bootloader update on ELF platforms.

The way this 5081.25Sthorpej was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means 5091.25Sthorpej make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the 5101.25Sthorpej timestamp on the wrong "dot_init.h"). 5111.25Sthorpej 5121.25Sthorpej The symptom you will see is that new programs die with SIGSEGV 5131.25Sthorpej if you have a stale dependency. 5141.25Sthorpej 5151.25Sthorpej Solution: "make cleandir" in both lib/csu and libexec/ld.elf_so 5161.25Sthorpej before starting your build. 5171.26Sthorpej 5181.26Sthorpej20010628: 5191.26Sthorpej A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug 5201.26Sthorpej in lint(1).

It also makes it easier to clean up after 5931.1Sabs a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the 5941.1Sabs same source tree for multiple machines. 5951.1Sabs To use object directories: 5961.1Sabs a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir 5971.2Smrg b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf 5981.2Smrg c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf 5991.1Sabs d) cd /usr/src ; make build 6001.2Smrg Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create 6011.2Smrg in obj.$MACHINE directory. 6021.1Sabs Build to a DESTDIR: 6031.1Sabs This helps to keep old 6041.1Sabs installed files (especially libraries) from interfering 6051.1Sabs with the new build. 6061.1Sabs To build to a DESTDIR, set the DESTDIR environment 6071.2Smrg variable before running make build.
