UPDATING revision 1.374
      1 $NetBSD: UPDATING,v 1.374 2024/11/23 14:51:58 riastradh Exp $
      2 
      3 This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent
      4 changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for
      5 what to do if something doesn't work.
      6 
      7 For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD
      8 using build.sh, see the BUILDING file.
      9 
     10 Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before
     11 build.sh existed.  Nevertheless, the advice here may be useful for
     12 working around specific problems with build.sh.
     13 
     14 Sections are marked with "^^^^^".  After the section on "Recent changes"
     15 are several sections containing more general information.
     16 
     17 See also: BUILDING, build.sh, Makefile.
     18 
     19 Recent changes:
     20 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
     21 
     22 20241122:
     23 	Changes to various libraries' build options require cleaning
     24 	their objdirs in update builds:
     25 
     26 	cd external/bsd/file/lib && $TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$ARCH clean
     27 	cd external/bsd/libarchive/lib && $TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$ARCH clean
     28 	cd external/public-domain/xz/lib && $TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$ARCH clean
     29 
     30 	Also, for architectures with MKCOMPAT, it is necessary to clean
     31 	the compat objdirs too.  The easiest way is:
     32 
     33 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/bsd/file/lib
     34 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/bsd/libarchive/lib
     35 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/public-domain/xz/lib
     36 
     37 	Changes to bsd.lib.mk to improve detecting differences in
     38 	shared library symbol exports may cause some .actsym files in
     39 	the objdir to become stale in update builds.
     40 
     41 	To work around this, delete all files matching `*.actsym' in
     42 	the objdir.  For example:
     43 
     44 	find OBJDIR -name '*.actsym' -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm
     45 
     46 20241104:
     47 	Changes around the integration of the zstd compression
     48 	library may require manual deletion of some object directories
     49 	if you update from a build from a few days ago:
     50 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/*/libarchive*
     51 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/*/libmagic*
     52 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/*/libzstd*
     53 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/libarchive*
     54 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/libmagic*
     55 	rm -rf DESTDIR/usr/lib/libzstd*
     56 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/bsd/file/
     57 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/bsd/libarchive/
     58 	rm -rf OBJDIR/compat/*/*/external/bsd/zstd/
     59 	rm -rf OBJDIR/external/bsd/file/
     60 	rm -rf OBJDIR/external/bsd/libarchive/
     61 	rm -rf OBJDIR/external/bsd/zstd/
     62 	rm -rf OBJDIR/external/gpl3/gcc/
     63 	rm -rf OBJDIR/tools/gcc/
     64 
     65 20240926:
     66 	Building -current when running on amd64 from about 20240924
     67 	to about 20240926 will not work due to a "malloc_np.h"
     68 	error. Please downgrade to a version from 20240924 or older,
     69 	or upgrade to a newer version e.g. using a binary release from
     70 	the NetBSD build servers.
     71 
     72 20240923:
     73 	Update builds will require cleaning the object directories for
     74 	jemalloc (like: "rm -rf $OBJ/external/bsd/jemalloc*") and the
     75 	libc dependency files (like: "rm $OBJ/lib/libc/jemalloc.*").
     76 	On architectures with COMPAT libs, those also have to be cleaned,
     77 	e.g. on sparc64: "rm -rf $OBJ/compat/sparc64/sparc/external/bsd/jemalloc*"
     78 	and "rm $OBJ/compat/sparc64/sparc/lib/libc/jemalloc.*".
     79 
     80 20240817:
     81 	Update builds will require cleaning in src/external/historical/nawk/bin
     82 	in order to remove the awk binary since now there is a subdirectory
     83 	called awk.
     84 
     85 20240812:
     86 	Update builds will require removing the tools objdir for gdb
     87 	if building with MKCROSSGDB=yes. All architectures use gdb.old
     88 	now.
     89 
     90 20240630:
     91 	Update builds will require removing the tools objdir for binutils
     92 	(as most architectures should use binutils.old now).
     93 
     94 20240610:
     95 	Update builds are likely to require removing the objdir for
     96 	distrib/<arch>/cdroms - or at least references to libarchive
     97 	from within there after the recent libarchive update.
     98 
     99 20240504:
    100 	Update builds on x86 require making the `cleandir' target in
    101 	lib/libm, or deleting the objdir for lib/libm.
    102 
    103 20240423:
    104 	Update builds with x11 may fail after switching to Mesa 21.
    105 
    106 20240410:
    107 	Update builds may require manually deleting
    108 	$DESTDIR/var/run/named (and, potentially,
    109 	$DESTDIR/var/run/lwresd) in order to avoid checkflist failure.
    110 
    111 20240409:
    112 	32-bit compatibility libraries were moved into the base32
    113 	and debug32 sets.  HTML man pages were moved into the manhtml set.
    114 
    115 20230828:
    116 	If:
    117         - you updated to current and ran postinstall between 20230826
    118 	  and 20230828 inclusive, and
    119         - you are not using anything outside the base system to
    120 	  populate /etc/openssl/certs (e.g., manually adding
    121 	  certificates or using ca-certificates or mozilla-rootcerts or
    122 	  mozilla-rootcerts-openssl from pkgsrc),
    123 	delete /etc/openssl/certs and rerun postinstall or just
    124 	`certctl rehash'.
    125 
    126 	Otherwise, certctl(8) will think someone else has left
    127 	/etc/openssl/certs in the way and will avoid clobbering it on
    128 	upgrade from older NetBSD.
    129 
    130 20230718:
    131 	build.sh will use mk.conf in the same directory as build.sh instead
    132 	of /etc/mk.conf, unless MAKECONF is already defined in the environment.
    133 
    134 20230714:
    135 	Import of gcc 10.5 requires a clean build of at least tools/gcc
    136 	and external/gpl3/gcc* object directories. An update build
    137 	without cleaning will result in obscure failures in rare corner
    138 	cases.
    139 
    140 20230604:
    141 	Building native kernels with the installed make(1) instead of
    142 	the $TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-${arch} wrapper will fail if userland
    143 	has not been updated. Note that this is an unsupported build
    144 	configuration (but usually works if userland is -current enough).
    145 
    146 20230523:
    147 	ctfmerge was fixed as macOS host tool. This may require a clean tools
    148 	rebuild to detect the update to tools/compat/configure.
    149 
    150 20230515:
    151 	New openssl build requires removal of the crypto/external/bsd/openssl
    152 	and tests/crypto/libcrypto subdirectories in the ${OBJDIR} hierarchy.
    153 	Otherwise test results may be wrong due to wrong "golden" output
    154 	files being installed.
    155 
    156 20230322:
    157 	Fixes for moved /lib/libisns* mean that builds will complain about
    158 	./usr/lib/libisns* being missing until src/lib/libisns is forced
    159 	to (re)install the files, including the symlinks.  The simplest
    160 	way is to clean this subdir before building.
    161 
    162 20230112:
    163 	New binutils require an updated ld.elf_so. If you are doing
    164 	(unsupported) in-place self builds (with the -E flag to build.sh),
    165 	make sure to have installed latest ld.elf_so before you rebuild
    166 	userland.
    167 
    168 20221116:
    169 	The addition to NetBSD's version of UFS2 of support for extended
    170 	attributes broke backward compatibility with previous releases
    171 	of NetBSD, so UFS2 has been restored to being compatible with
    172 	previous NetBSD releases by disabling extended attributes.
    173 	(Note that ACLs are implemented as extended attributes, so
    174 	this changes disables ACLs as well.)
    175 
    176 	Support for UFS2 with extended attributes is now available in a new
    177 	UFS variant called UFS2ea.  If you have created extended attributes
    178 	in an original UFS2 file system then "fsck -p" will now fail due to
    179 	the unexpected presence of extended attributes and "fsck -y" will
    180 	remove all extended attributes.  If you wish to preserve extended
    181 	attributes rather than delete them, there is a utility to convert
    182 	a UFS2 file system to UFS2ea and leave extended attributes in place,
    183 	but this should be used with caution since it will preserve any
    184 	extended attributes that have been corrupted by the backward
    185 	incompatibility too.
    186 
    187 	If you wish to use a UFS2ea file system as your root file system,
    188 	then you will need to update your boot loader to a version that
    189 	supports UFS2ea.
    190 
    191 	For more information, see:
    192 	https://wiki.netbsd.org/features/UFS2ea
    193 
    194 20221111:
    195 	The new libdrm import worsened the conflict issues for the
    196 	kdump/ktruss ioctl, and i915 now conflicts with base, and has
    197 	been turned off.  This will cause update build issues like:
    198 
    199 		kdump-ioctl.c:12175:143: error: 'DRM_IOCTL_I915_DESTROY_HEAP'
    200 		   undeclared here (not in a function);
    201 		   did you mean 'DRM_IOCTL_MODE_DESTROY_DUMB'?
    202 
    203 	You'll need to clean usr.bin/ktruss, usr.bin/kdump, and rescue.
    204 
    205 20220921:
    206 	Since the kernel version was bumped to 9.99.100, the bootloader
    207 	must be updated on x86 or EFI boot platforms in order to load
    208 	modules from boot.cfg(5) or interactively at the bootloader
    209 	prompt.
    210 
    211 	The kernel can still load modules at runtime, with modload(8)
    212 	or modules.conf(5), with no bootloader update.  This will not
    213 	affect release branches because it only applies to patch
    214 	numbers >=100.
    215 
    216 	On x86 (i386 or amd64) with BIOS boot, this requires copying a
    217 	new /usr/mdec/boot to /boot.  You can build this in the destdir
    218 	by running `$TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$ARCH dependall install' in
    219 	sys/arch/i386/stand.
    220 
    221 	On platforms with EFI boot (including x86 with EFI boot), this
    222 	requires copying a new /usr/mdec/boot*.efi to the EFI/BOOT/
    223 	directory on the EFI system partition.  The boot*.efi file is:
    224 
    225 	aarch64	bootaa64.efi
    226 	amd64	bootx64.efi
    227 	arm	bootarm.efi	(32-bit arm)
    228 	i386	bootx32.efi
    229 
    230 	You can build this in the destdir by running
    231 	`$TOOLDIR/bin/nbmake-$ARCH dependall install' in
    232 	sys/stand/efiboot/boot*.
    233 
    234 20220821:
    235 	Support for building extsrc/ has been deprecated.
    236 	EXTSRCSRCDIR and MKEXTSRC have been deprecated.
    237 
    238 20220714:
    239 	Updates to xorg-server and associated drivers may cause builds to
    240 	fail.  Cleaning both DESTDIR and the xorg build tree may be needed.
    241 
    242 20220628:
    243 	Changes in the build of src/games/robots require a clean build
    244 	of that program.
    245 
    246 20211116:
    247 	Changes in the xorg build require clean obj dirs for external/mit/xorg
    248 	(or a full clean/non-update build).
    249 
    250 20211112:
    251 	Device tree sources were updated for evbarm.  Some device nodes
    252 	(in particular, ld(4) devices on the ROCKPro64) will be renumbered.
    253 
    254 20211014:
    255 	MKPIE default for aarch64 has changed, a clean build is required.
    256 
    257 20210917:
    258 	Changed MNT_ACLS to default to POSIX1e ACLs instead of NFSv4
    259 	ACLs, to be compatible with FreeBSD. If you are using NFSv4 ACLs
    260 	and have "acls" in /etc/fstab you'll need to change it to "nfs4acls".
    261 
    262 20210711:
    263 	Updated GMP sources may require cleaning in tools/gmp and/or in
    264 	external/lgpl3/gmp/lib, particularly if GCC itself does not build.
    265 
    266 20210417:
    267 	GCC 10 was enabled for several platforms.  If builds fail in either
    268 	tools/gcc or external/gpl3/gcc, first try cleaning those objects and
    269 	removing the $DESTDIR/usr/include/g++ subdirectory.
    270 
    271 20201016:
    272 	MIPS kernel modules have been disabled until they work.  This will
    273 	turn up in extra files in the DESTDIR, which should be cleaned.
    274 
    275 20200925:
    276 	GNU MPC and MPFR have been updated.  At least MPFR needs cleaning
    277 	in both the tools and external dirs.
    278 
    279 20200912:
    280 	GCC 9 has arrived for Arm and x86 platforms, and will be coming
    281 	for several more, as will binutils 2.34.  Clean as required.
    282 
    283 20200907:
    284 	GCC 9 is coming, and binutils has been updated for MIPS.  This
    285 	probably requires cleaning the tools/binutils.
    286 
    287 20200811:
    288 	GCC updates may require cleaning the objdir.  This may occur
    289 	due to GCC 7.5 update, GCC 8.4 move to gcc.old, or the upcoming
    290 	GCC 9 upgrade.
    291 
    292 20200614:
    293 	blacklist* has been renamed to blocklist*. postinstall(8)
    294 	should handle the migration.
    295 
    296 20200601:
    297 	Due to a mistake in LIBISPRIVATE handling, .so libraries were
    298 	created in the build directories and need cleaning.
    299 
    300 20200311:
    301 	GCC 8 ports will need cleaning in src/tools/gcc and
    302 	src/external/gpl3/gcc due to GCC 8.4 update.
    303 
    304 20191118:
    305 	More architectures were switched to gcc8:
    306 	    i386, ia64 powerpc64, sparc, sparc64, arm
    307 	The same comments as in 20191022 apply.
    308 
    309 20191112:
    310 	The LLVM update requires a clean rebuild for all architectures using
    311 	LLVM during the tools build phase (i386, amd64, aarch64).
    312 
    313 20191022:
    314 	Ports amd64 and aarch64 switched to GCC 8.3 by default.
    315 	In-place ("expert mode", build.sh -E) builds are not supported
    316 	when going from a GCC 7 userland to GCC 8. Do a regular
    317 	build to a different DESTDIR (or preferably: build.sh -U) at least
    318 	once and install sets, or download comp.{tar.xz,tgz} from the
    319 	daily builds and install that before doing the next in-place build.
    320 
    321 20191001:
    322 	GCC 8.3 was imported.  Builds of src/tools/gcc may fail if
    323 	old builds with GCC 7 output now uses GCC 8.  Clean this
    324 	directory, and also clean src/external/gpl3/gcc.
    325 
    326 20190903:
    327 	Files with names that coincide with existing files' names on
    328 	case-insensitive file systems were inadvertently committed, for
    329 	radeon GPU firmware.  We cannot mark these as obsolete for
    330 	postinstall to fix, so if you updated src since 2019-08-26, and
    331 	ran build.sh distribution or ran build.sh release, you must
    332 	manually delete the following files in your DESTDIR (which is
    333 	usually $OBJDIR/destir.$ARCH), or from / if you have installed
    334 	them:
    335

    402 
    403 	We will re-import these radeon firmware images another way
    404 	later.
    405 
    406 20190727:
    407 	The uefi bootloader has gained tftp support and needs a clean
    408 	build. If you do update builds, manually clean its object
    409 	directory by something like:
    410 	cd sys/arch/i386/stand/efiboot && make clean
    411 
    412 20190723:
    413 	The jemalloc allocator in libc is now built without extended
    414 	debugging (for performance reasons). In update builds make sure
    415 	to rebuild it completely, by removing all affected object files,
    416 	including compat builds, something like:
    417 	cd /usr/obj && find . -type d -name jemalloc|xargs rm -rf
    418 
    419 20190207:
    420 	GCC 7 switched for many ports.  Update builds are likely to fail.
    421 
    422 Hints for a more successful build:
    423 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    424     Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode":
    425 	This will automatically build the tools in the
    426 	   correct order, and it will keep the tools and the
    427 	   new build products from interfering with the running
    428 	   system.  This will allow you to ignore most of the
    429 	   other advice in this file.
    430     Build a new kernel first:
    431 	This makes sure that any new system calls or features
    432 	   expected by the new userland will be present.  This
    433 	   helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
    434     Use object directories:
    435 	This helps to keep stale object
    436 	   files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
    437 	   about one.  It also makes it easier to clean up after
    438 	   a build.  It's also necessary if you want to use the
    439 	   same source tree for multiple machines.
    440 	   To use object directories with build.sh:
    441 	    a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options.
    442 	   To use object directories without using build.sh:
    443 	    a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
    444 	    b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
    445 	    c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
    446 	    d) cd /usr/src ; make build
    447 	   Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
    448 	   in obj.$MACHINE directory.
    449     Build to a DESTDIR:
    450 	This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries)
    451 	   from interfering with the new build.
    452 	   To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option.
    453 	   To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR
    454 	   environment variable before running make build.  It should be
    455 	   set to the pathname of an initially empty directory.
    456 	   Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to
    457 		update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since
    458 		nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR.
    459 		(See critical utils, below.)
    460     Build often:
    461 	This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
    462 	on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
    463 	date functionality.  If you use build.sh, you should not have
    464 	this problem.
    465 
    466 What to do if things don't work:
    467 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    468 When things don't work there are usually a few things that commonly
    469 should be done.
    470     1)	make includes
    471 	This should be done automatically by make build.
    472     2)  cd share/mk && make install
    473 	Again, automatically done by make build.
    474 
    475 Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
    476 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    477 To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
    478 something like the following:
    479     1)  Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
    480     2)  Make sure any program used to build the particular
    481 	utility is up to date.  (yacc, lex, etc...)
    482     3)  cd ...path/to/util...
    483 	make cleandir
    484 	rm ...all obj directories...
    485 	make cleandir			# yes, again
    486 	make obj
    487 	make depend && make
    488 
    489 Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
    490 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    491 If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
    492 ready for a build try the following.  Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
    493 (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
    494 for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
    495 
    496 ---cut here---
    497 #!/bin/sh
    498 . /etc/mk.conf

    500 if [ -z $NETBSDSRCDIR ] ; then
    501     NETBSDSRCDIR=/usr/src
    502 fi
    503 if [ \! -d $NETBSDSRCDIR ] ; then
    504     echo Unable to find sources
    505     exit 1
    506 fi
    507 find $NETBSDSRCDIR -name \*.o -o -name obj.\* -o -name obj -exec rm \{\} \;
    508 
    509 if [ -z $BSDOBJDIR ] ; then
    510     BSDOBJDIR=/usr/obj
    511 fi
    512 if [ -d $BSDOBJDIR ] ; then
    513     rm -rf $BSDOBJDIR
    514 fi
    515 
    516 cd $NETBSDSRCDIR && make cleandir
    517

    520 Critical utilities:
    521 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    522 	usr.bin/make
    523 	usr.bin/yacc
    524 	usr.bin/lex
    525 	usr.bin/xlint
    526 	usr.bin/config
    527 
    528 Other problems and possible solutions:
    529 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    530 Symptom:Complaints involving a Makefile.
    531 Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/make:
    532 	cd usr.bin/make && make && make install
    533 	Or, a failsafe method if that doesn't work:
    534 	cd usr.bin/make && cc -DMAKE_NATIVE *.c -I. -o make \
    535 	&& install make /usr/bin
    536 
    537 Fix:	Make sure .mk files are up to date.
    538 	cd share/mk && make install
    539 
    540 Symptom:Kernel `config' fails to configure any kernel, including GENERIC.
    541 Fix:	Rebuild usr.bin/config
    542 
    543 Symptom:Obsolete intermediate files are used during compilation
    544 Fix:	Try the following sequence of commands in the directory in question.
    545 	make cleandir; rm `make print-objdir`; make cleandir; make obj
    546 	(If you built the tree without "make obj" in the past, obsolete files
    547 	may remain.  The command tries to clean everything up)
    548 
    549 Symptom:.../sysinst/run.c:xx: warning: initialization from incompatible
    550 	pointer type
    551 Fix:	Rebuild and install usr.bin/menuc
    552 
    553 Symptom:mklocale not found during build in share/locale/ctype
    554 Fix:	Build and install usr.bin/mklocale
    555 
    556 Symptom:undefined reference to `__assert13' or `__unsetenv13'
    557 Fix:    Rebuild and install lib/libc
    558 
    559 Symptom:usr.bin/config fails to build.
    560 Fix:	Try building with -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP added to CFLAGS in Makefile.
    561 
    562 Symptom:undefined reference to `getprogname' or `setprogname'
    563 Fix:    Rebuild and install lib/libc
    564 
    565 Symptom:Update build fails in src/tools/gcc complaining that a variable
    566 	(e.g. CPPFLAGS) has changed since the previous run.
    567 Fix:    Run "nbmake-${ARCH} clean" in src/tools/gcc or do a clean build.
    568 
    569 Symptom:cvs [update aborted]: cannot open directory /cvsroot/src/...:
    570 	No such file or directory.
    571 Cause:	If a directory is created by mistake, then it is sometimes
    572 	deleted from the CVS repository using administrative commands
    573 	that bypass the normal cvs access controls.  If your cvs working tree
    574 	contains references to a directory that has been deleted on the
    575 	server in this way, then "cvs update" reports this error.
    576 Fix:	Recursively delete the affected directory from your working tree
    577 	and try the update again.
