UPDATING revision 1.123
1$NetBSD: UPDATING,v 1.123 2004/06/13 08:08:43 jmc Exp $ 2 3This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent 4changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for 5what to do if something doesn't work. 6 7For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD 8using build.sh, see the BUILDING file. 9 10Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before 11build.sh existed. Nevertheless, the advice here may be useful for 12working around specific problems with build.sh. 13 14See also: BUILDING, build.sh, Makefile. 15 16Recent changes: 17^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 18 1920040516: 20 The end-user modifiable X11 configuration has been moved 21 from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/<dir> to /etc/X11/<dir>. 22 Ensure that src and xsrc is up to date, and run 23 "make cleandir" in src/x11 before your next build. 24 2520040426: 26 Support for the original dynamic sysctl node structure has 27 been removed in favor of the newer layout. This affects 28 consumers of the create and delete interface, as well as 29 the dynamic discovery mechanism. This is believed only to 30 be the sysctl(8) binary itself, at this point in time, so 31 the only effect of this should be that a sysctl binary 32 built from sources dated between 2003/12/04 and 2004/03/24 33 will not work on a kernel built from sources dated after 34 2004/04/25. If you need a new sysctl binary but build.sh 35 does not work, make sure that your revision of 36 src/sys/sys/sysctl.h is 1.112 (or later), and then the 37 do the following: 38 39 cd /usr/src (or wherever your source tree is) 40 make USETOOLS=no includes 41 cd lib/libc 42 make USETOOLS=no dependall install 43 cd ../../sbin/sysctl 44 make USETOOLS=no dependall install 45 46 If you are using older sysctl binary, GNU autoconf would fail to 47 identify your machine architecture, and tries to build binary for 48 "unknown-unknown-netbsd20F" or something like that. if that happens, 49 make sure to follow the above steps. 50 5120040425: 52 The ffs superblock issues listed below under 20040109 and 20030402 53 are now automatically addressed by the /etc/rc.d/fixsb script or by 54 sysinst when it checks a a filesystem. The manual fsck_ffs -b16 -c4 55 invocation mentioned below will continue to work and is now 56 automated by those scripts. Note that under certain circumstances, 57 affected filesystems upgraded to a -current kernel first before 58 upgrading their userland with the fixsb and fsck_ffs fixes may 59 encounter a 'freeing free inode' panic when writing to the affected 60 filesystem, so it is a good idea to repair the filesystem as soon as 61 possible. For more details on the fixsb script, see pr install/25138. 62 6320040418: 64 statfs(2) and friends have been replaced with statvfs(2). Before 65 installing a newly build userland make sure that you are running 66 a newly built kernel with COMPAT_20 set. In addition your libc 67 build might not work (undefined SYS_statfs symbol) because make 68 clean does not know how to remove files it does not know about 69 anymore. Manually remove all generated .S sources and objects 70 from the libc build directory. 71 7220040326: 73 The method by which athhal-elf.o gets pulled into i386 kernel builds 74 has been changed. The file is now stored as a uuencoded file in CVS 75 and the generated Makefile will use the new .uue rules from bsd.file.mk 76 to build it. 77 78 This means you must have the latest bsd.files.mk installed when 79 building a kernel without USETOOLS=yes. 80 8120040318: 82 A bug in the cgd(4) blowfish code was corrected, without 83 provision of backwards compatibility, after several public 84 notices over several months. Users of cgd with blowfish cipher 85 ONLY must dump their data before updating their kernels, and 86 recreate cgd's and restore data using the new kernel. See 87 (recent message to current-users, URL when mail-index has updated) 88 8920040313: 90 On acorn32, the opms and qms drivers have been withdrawn, and 91 the old wsqms driver is now called qms. Kernel config files 92 will need updating. See the ones in sys/arch/acorn32/conf 93 for examples. 94 9520040125: 96 On acorn32, the beep and sysbeep devices are no longer 97 needed, and will need to be deleted from kernel configuration 98 files. 99 10020040109: 101 Compatibility for old ffs superblock layouts has been 102 added, and the restrictive fsck checks have been reenabled 103 when using those layouts. If you have been using -current 104 since 20030402, you may find that fsck again signals fatal 105 superblock mismatches. To repair, make sure you have 106 an updated fsck_ffs and then you can use fsck_ffs -b 16 -c 4 107 to complete the filesystem upgrade. A message has 108 been added to the kernel which should detect this problem. 109 See the following discussion for more information: 110 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/current-users/2004/01/11/0022.html 111 11220031203: 113 New binutils builds may fail due to old dependencies. 114 It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that 115 the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly. 116 11720031111: 118 A newer mkdep is needed. Error noting that is 119 cc: Ambiguous abbreviation -- 120 12120031008: 122 /usr/include/sys/disklabel_mbr.h was removed. 123 It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that 124 the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly. 125 12620031007: 127 A sign exension bug was fixed which set all the high bits 128 of our newly expanded ffs fs_flags. This should only 129 affect users who installed or upgraded in September of 2003. 130 A small utility program was posted to tech-kern which 131 should fix this problem, and a warning message was added 132 to the kernel which should discover and warn about it. See 133 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/tech-kern/2003/10/07/0005.html 134 13520030906: 136 With the addition of siginfo support the old signal trampoline 137 code has been deprecated to COMPAT_16. Make sure that your running 138 kernel has COMPAT_16 enabled before building userland. 139 14020030801: 141 With the new openssl, there is some header and library shuffling. 142 rm -f /usr/include/des.h /usr/include/kerberosIV/* /lib/libdes* \ 143 /usr/lib/libdes* before building. 144 14520030703: 146 Texinfo was updated to 4.6. To avoid failures when trying to 147 build the included texinfo files, do: 148 149 cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo 150 make MKINFO=no dependall install 151 15220030630: 153 Groff was updated to 1.19; it's probably necessary to do 154 cd share/mk && make install 155 cd src/gnu/usr.bin/groff 156 make MKMAN=no dependall install 157 (untested). 158 15920030516: 160 Due to bugs in the export handling code, invalid export lines 161 were accepted before and caused the kernel to panic when 162 mountd got restarted because it freed memory that had already 163 been freed. This has been fixed and the kernel checks 164 export addresses very strictly. If you upgrade your kernel, 165 make sure you also upgrade mountd, because if your export 166 file contains lines with an old inet4 address syntax (i.e. 167 a.b.c or a.b or a), they will get rejected by the new kernel. 168 16920030402: 170 The superblock layout for FFS was changed. If you have 1.6 171 fsck binaries, they will signal a fatal superblock mismatch 172 with the first alternate, because they compare too many 173 fields (even ones that aren't useful). If possible, upgrade 174 your fsck_ffs binary before using a new kernel. 175 None of this signals actual filesystem damage. 176 17720030324: 178 sendmail version 8.12.8 was imported. Since sendmail is 179 now setgid to the smmsp group, and runs in "collection" 180 mode for most common activities, there is a new config 181 file called submit.cf that needs to live in /etc/mail. 182 The generic submit.cf sample in /usr/share/sendmail/cf 183 is named netbsd-msp.cf. Upgrading your regular sendmail 184 configuration file is also strongly advised. 185 186 See the section named "MESSAGE SUBMISSION PROGRAM" in 187 the updated /usr/share/sendmail/README file for more 188 information. 189 19020030117: 191 Texinfo was updated to 4.3. To avoid failures when trying to 192 build the included texinfo files, do: 193 194 cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo 195 make MKINFO=no dependall install 196 19720021223: 198 The METALOG format changed slightly, to remove the leading 199 "${DESTDIR}" from path names. 200 This only affects people building with UNPRIVED. 201 For complete safety, remove the DESTDIR entirely and 202 update tools/mtree, before running make build. 203 20420021219: 205 CVS repository layout was changed. See the following for details 206 if you are using (anonymous) cvs to update your tree. 207 208 http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/netbsd-announce/2002/12/19/0000.html 209 21020021219: 211 install(1) had a '-N dbdir' option added, to specify an 212 alternate location to look up users & groups (instead 213 of the host system passwd(5) and group(5) databases). 214 215 The build system was modified to take advantage of 216 this option (using ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc), so if you 217 use USETOOLS==no, you may have to rebuild and 218 reinstall usr.bin/xinstall first. 219 22020021130: 221 fparseln(3) moved from libutil to libc. 222 If building to DESTDIR=/, reinstall the includes 223 and rebuild libc: 224 make includes 225 make do-lib-libc 226 If using build.sh, "cd tools/compat && make clean" 227 before rebuilding the tools. 228 22920021126: 230 The mk.conf(5) variable SYS_INCLUDE has been deprecated, 231 including the optional "SYS_INCLUDE=symlinks" support. 232 All header files, including <sys/*.h> are copied into 233 /usr/include. 234 23520021121: 236 The C run-time support files crtbegin.o and crtend.o 237 (and their companions crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o) were 238 split up, with new crti.o and crtn.o files resulting. 239 This means that libtool needs to be rebuilt once the 240 new libraries are installed. The process of rebuilding 241 libtool will cause it to automatically notice the new 242 required files, but it *must* be rebuilt in order to 243 do this. 244 245 An out-of-date libtool will result in shared libraries 246 which lack _init() and _fini() routines, which means that 247 their global contructors/destructors will not be invoked. 248 24920021121: 250 A bug related to how ARM ELF objects were tagged has been 251 corrected. 252 253 NetBSD ARM ELF uses the soft-VFP floating point model by 254 default. However, the assembler lacked support for marking 255 objects as using the VFP floating point format, and the 256 compiler was not properly passing the flag indicating "soft-VFP" 257 to the assembler. 258 259 Unfortunately, this means that the linker will now consider 260 old (i.e. not marked "softvfp") NetBSD ARM ELF objects to be 261 incompatible with new (properly marked) objects. 262 263 The problem will only manifest itself if you attempt to compile 264 a new program using the fixed toolchain, and link that program 265 against old libraries which do not have the proper "softvfp" 266 markings. ALL OF YOUR EXISTING BINARIES AND SHARED LIBRARIES 267 WILL CONTINUE TO WORK PROPERLY. 268 269 The only work-around for the problem is to recompile all of 270 the libraries on the system. The easiest way to do this for 271 system libraries is to install a binary snapshot; they are 272 generally available on releng.NetBSD.org. Any packages you 273 have installed which supply libraries will have to be recompiled 274 if you wish to link new programs against those libraries. 275 276 If you have questions about this matter, please contact 277 port-arm@NetBSD.org. 278 27920021011: 280 Systrace has been improved to support privilege elevation. 281 Updating the kernel requires the userland part of systrace 282 to be rebuilt. 283 28420021010: 285 The config(8) grammar was changed to allow options to register 286 dependencies on attributes, as well as other options. Users 287 must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new 288 kernel. 289 29020021009: 291 A new attribute dependency syntax was introduced to config(8), 292 which is now used by the SCSI configuration description. Users 293 must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new 294 kernel. 295 29620021003: 297 Several changes have been made to the autoconfiguration 298 framework. Users must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config 299 before building a new kernel. 300 30120021001: 302 The i386mp branch has been merged. To compile a kernel, users 303 will need to add the option 'cpu* at mainbus?' to their configuration 304 file. Multiprocessor kernels will need 305 ioapic* at mainbus? apid ? 306 options MULTIPROCESSOR 307 options COM_MPLOCK 308 30920020922: 310 MKDYNAMICROOT=yes enabled by default, which means that 311 certain shared libraries are installed into /lib, the shared 312 linker is installed into /libexec, and all programs in /bin 313 and /sbin are dynamically linked. 314 If you do not use "make build", you should ensure that 315 you have the libraries and shared linker in the new locations, 316 with: 317 make do-lib-csu do-lib-libc do-lib do-gnu-lib do-ld.elf_so 318 31920020917: 320 USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN has been replaced with: 321 - TOOLCHAIN_MISSING -- set to "yes" on platforms for which 322 there is no working in-tree toolchain (hppa, ns32k, sh5, 323 x86_64). 324 - EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN -- if defined by the user, points to the 325 root of an external toolchain (e.g. /usr/local/gnu). This 326 enables the cross-build framework even for TOOLCHAIN_MISSING 327 platforms. 328 32920020906: 330 gehenna-devsw has been merged into the trunk. Need to update and 331 reinstall usr.sbin/config before building the kernel. 332 33320020822: 334 Crunched rescue tools (contents of /bin and /sbin, plus others) 335 are now provided in /rescue. 336 337 To ensure that these are built statically linked (no matter 338 what the setting of LDSTATIC is), use a crunchgen(1) built 339 from sources newer than 20020820 (see the next entry). 340 34120020820: 342 crunchgen(1) changed to ensure that the generated program 343 is statically linked. 344 345 Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/crunch 346 34720020605: 348 smmsp user/group has been added for sendmail. 349 350 Add the following into /etc/group: 351 352 smmsp:*:17: 353 354 and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw): 355 356 smmsp:*:17:17::0:0:Sendmail Message Submission Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin 357 35820020515: 359 sshd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in, or sshd 360 will not let you log in (with default, or UsePrivlegeSeparation=yes) 361 362 Add the following into /etc/group: 363 364 sshd:*:16: 365 366 and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw): 367 368 sshd:*:16:16::0:0:& pseudo-user:/var/chroot/sshd:/sbin/nologin 369 370 Also /var/chroot/sshd directory needs to be present (digged as part of 371 the build process). 372 37320020426: 374 NBUILDJOBS obsoleted in favor of just using -j. 375 37620020426: 377 etc/postinstall added, which performs various checks for 378 configuration file updates and changes, and can fix most of 379 the problems identified. 380 This should make it much easier to upgrade a system's 381 configuration from earlier systems (as far back as NetBSD 1.5). 382 38320020320: 384 <bsd.lib.mk> needs a new install(1) for its "-a cmd" support. 385 Build and install at usr.bin/xinstall before the build. 386 38720020319: 388 Raw IPv6 socket now makes strict checking for sa_family and sa_len 389 on send(2) operation. Be sure to have sbin/rtsol and usr.sbin/rtsold 390 newer than November 2001 when you upgrade the kernel. 391 39220020311: 393 ssh configuration files were moved from /etc to /etc/ssh. Beware 394 if you restart your machine from remote. Note that sshd.conf needs 395 to be changed (due to the use of "/etc" inside). 396 39720020223: 398 Users of the VAX port will need to rebuild and install gas 399 so it deal with the now present register prefix used in all 400 the VAX assembly files. 401 40220020118: 403 ntpd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in or builds 404 will break as mtree aborts early. 405 406 Add the following into /etc/group: 407 408 ntpd:*:15: 409 410 and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw): 411 412 ntpd:*:15:15::0:0:Ntpd pseudo-user:/var/chroot/ntpd:/sbin/nologin 413 41420011207: 415 If you're attempting to build a snapshot on sparc64 and are getting 416 reloc errors from the toolchain groff binary this means your native 417 toolchain has some broken C++ bits. 418 419 To fix: 420 421 Build a new toolchain (i.e. build.sh -t) 422 Use the new toolchain to build and install natively (i.e. /usr/lib) 423 424 gnu/lib/libgcc 425 gnu/lib/libstdc++ 426 427 After this a snapshot will be able to be built. 428 42920011201: 430 In order for a sparc64 build to work you must have a working awk. If 431 you've built and installed a system with the new toolchain up to this 432 point you do not have a working awk as its ability to do floating 433 point is broken. 434 435 To build: 436 437 remake and install gnu/lib/libgcc 438 remake and install gnu/usr.bin/gawk into /usr/bin (make sure it links 439 against the new libgcc.a) 440 44120011128: 442 Kernel config information was changed to use defflag in 443 the various "files" files. Bug fixes to config(8) are 444 required in order for this to work properly. Make sure 445 to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting 446 to build a new kernel. 447 44820011030: 449 libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1) 450 before building libc. 451 45220011029: 453 The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or 454 see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build 455 procedure in great detail. BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN 456 build process, are intended in the long run to replace this 457 manual update log. 458 459 Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the 460 BUILDING document for caveats. Generally, BUILDING supersedes 461 UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of 462 by the new build system. 463 46420011028: 465 src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle 466 symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that 467 prevented this was corrected. 468 469 Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall 470 Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work 471 for you. 472 47320011006: 474 /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of 475 absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't 476 understand the format. 477 478 Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree 479 48020011004: 481 Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating 482 is suggested before running a snapshot build 483 48420010915: 485 The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed 486 a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h. There may be stale .depend 487 files that still reference this file. 488 489 Solution: "make cleandir && make dependall" in affected 490 directories. 491 49220010803: 493 grep.info is now built from grep.texi using makeinfo. Since it 494 requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before 495 building gnu/usr.bin/grep. To install new texinfo, please follow 496 the instruction described in 20010726 entry. 497 49820010803: 499 (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like 500 `fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand. To build the 501 kernel successfully, you need to build and install a new toolchain, 502 (i.e., build.sh -t) or (temporarily) comment out "options I686_CPU" 503 from your kernel configuration until you rebuild your userland. 504 See 20011029 above and BUILDING file in this directory for more information. 505 [updated 20020630 since i386 gas moved when USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN enabled] 506 50720010731: 508 Bootloader update on ELF platforms. DDB in kernels from before 509 this will be unable to read symbol tables provided by newer 510 bootloaders. 511 51220010726: 513 Texinfo was updated to 4.0. To avoid failures when trying to 514 build the included texinfo files, do: 515 516 cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo 517 make MKINFO=no dependall install 518 51920010718: 520 Enabled correct .init/.fini processing in crt0. The way this 521 was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means 522 make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the 523 timestamp on the wrong "dot_init.h"). 524 525 The symptom you will see is that new programs die with SIGSEGV 526 if you have a stale dependency. 527 528 Solution: "make cleandir" in both lib/csu and libexec/ld.elf_so 529 before starting your build. 530 53120010628: 532 A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug 533 in lint(1). If you get a warning/error about a non-portable 534 bitfield, update your lint(1) before proceeding. 535 53620010226: 537 Added named user/group to system. Need to hand add this in or builds 538 will break as mtree aborts early. 539 540 To work around add by hand: 541 542 named:*:14: 543 544 to /etc/group and add: 545 546 named:*:14:14::0:0:Named pseudo-user:/var/named:/sbin/nologin 547 548 to master.passwd (use vipw for instance if doing by hand). 549 550 Now a make build should progress. 551 55220010219: 553 get/setprogname() added. Any hostprogs that may use this will need 554 to be bootstrapped manually until the host system is current. 555 556 Known problems: sys/arch/macppc/stand/fixcoff 557 usr.sbin/config (adding -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP to 558 CFLAGS and rebuilding should work) 559 usr.sbin/mdsetimage - Build a static copy if 560 building a snapshot before fully bootstrapped. 561 56220010204: 563 prepare the code to compile with stricter gcc flags. in 564 particular start eliminating redundant declarations. Yacc 565 needs to be installed before make build. 566 56720010114: 568 introduce .if commands(target) in make(1). You need to 569 bring everything up-to-date first, then without installing 570 anything make and install in usr.bin/make, then proceed 571 with make build. 572 57320010101: 574 bsd.subdir.mk committed 20001230 had a bug which caused 575 afterinstall targets to run too soon; update again. 576 57720001230: 578 New share/mk files needed to support .WAIT in SUBDIR variables. 579 If you get make errors, 580 (cd share/mk; make install) 581 Also, PRINTOBJDIR has changed and is now used more heavily. 582 58320001019: 584 The `ca' device driver has been replaced by `ld'; although the 585 major and minor numbers haven't changed, you should update your /dev 586 directory. 587 58820000929: 589 The following make directives are obsoleted. 590 MKCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RC5 NOCRYPTO_IDEA 591 By default, RSA is built into libcrypto. IDEA and RC5 will not be 592 built into libcrypto. By using MKCRYPTO_{RC5,IDEA}, you can build 593 additional library libcrypto_{idea,rc5}. 594 595 596Hints for a more successful build: 597^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 598 Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode": 599 This will will automatically build the tools in the 600 correct order, and it will keep the tools and the 601 new build products from interfering with the running 602 system. This will allow you to ignore most of the 603 other advice in this file. 604 Build a new kernel first: 605 This makes sure that any new system calls or features 606 expected by the new userland will be present. This 607 helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading. 608 Use object directories: 609 This helps to keep stale object 610 files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets" 611 about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after 612 a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the 613 same source tree for multiple machines. 614 To use object directories with build.sh: 615 a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options. 616 To use object directories without using build.sh: 617 a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir 618 b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf 619 c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf 620 d) cd /usr/src ; make build 621 Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create 622 in obj.$MACHINE directory. 623 Build to a DESTDIR: 624 This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries) 625 from interfering with the new build. 626 To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option. 627 To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR 628 environment variable before running make build. It should be 629 set to the pathname of an initially empty directory. 630 Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to 631 update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since 632 nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR. 633 (See critical utils, below.) 634 Build often: 635 This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke 636 on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to 637 date functionality. If you use build.sh, you should not have 638 this problem. 639 640What to do if things don't work: 641^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 642When things don't work there is usually a few things that commonly 643should be done. 644 1) make includes 645 This should be done automatically by make build. 646 2) cd share/mk && make install 647 Again, automatically done by make build. 648 649Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree: 650^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 651To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do 652something like the following: 653 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date. 654 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular 655 utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...) 656 3) cd ...path/to/util... 657 make cleandir 658 rm ...all obj directories... 659 make cleandir # yes, again 660 make obj 661 make depend && make 662 663Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree: 664^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 665If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and 666ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf 667(a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work 668for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf. 669 670---cut here--- 671#!/bin/sh 672. /etc/mk.conf 673 674if [ -z $NETBSDSRCDIR ] ; then 675 NETBSDSRCDIR=/usr/src 676fi 677if [ \! -d $NETBSDSRCDIR ] ; then 678 echo Unable to find sources 679 exit 1 680fi 681find $NETBSDSRCDIR -name \*.o -o -name obj.\* -o -name obj -exec rm \{\} \; 682 683if [ -z $BSDOBJDIR ] ; then 684 BSDOBJDIR=/usr/obj 685fi 686if [ -d $BSDOBJDIR ] ; then 687 rm -rf $BSDOBJDIR 688fi 689 690cd $NETBSDSRCDIR && make cleandir 691 692---cut here--- 693 694Critical utilities: 695^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 696 gnu/usr.bin/egcs 697 usr.bin/compile_et 698 usr.bin/make 699 usr.bin/yacc 700 usr.bin/lex 701 usr.bin/xlint 702 usr.sbin/config 703 704Other problems and possible solutions: 705^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 706Symptom:Unreasonable compiler errors. 707Fix: Rebuild gnu/usr.bin/egcs 708 709Symptom:Complaints involving a Makefile. 710Fix: Rebuild usr.bin/make: 711 cd usr.bin/make && make && make install 712 Or, a failsafe method if that doesn't work: 713 cd usr.bin/make && cc *.c */*.c -I . -o make && mv make /usr/bin 714 715Fix: Make sure .mk files are up to date. 716 cd share/mk && make install 717 718Symptom:Kernel `config' fails to configure any kernel, including GENERIC. 719Fix: Rebuild usr.sbin/config 720 721Symptom: 722Fix: Rebuild usr.bin/yacc 723 724Symptom: 725Fix: Rebuild usr.bin/lex 726 727Symptom: 728Fix: rm /usr/lib/libbfd.a 729 730Symptom:Obsolete intermediate files are used during compilation 731Fix: Try the following sequence of commands in the directory in question. 732 make cleandir; rm `make print-objdir`; make cleandir; make obj 733 (If you built the tree without "make obj" in the past, obsolete files 734 may remain.
