4This is the README file for the new make "include" files for the BSD
5source tree.  The files are installed in /usr/share/mk, and are, by
6convention, named with the suffix ".mk".
7
8Note, this file is not intended to replace reading through the .mk
9files for anything tricky.

13RANDOM THINGS WORTH KNOWING:
14
15The files are simply C-style #include files, and pretty much behave like
16you'd expect.  The syntax is slightly different in that a single '.' is
17used instead of the hash mark, i.e. ".include <bsd.prog.mk>".
18
19One difference that will save you lots of debugging time is that inclusion
20of the file is normally done at the *end* of the Makefile.  The reason for
21this is because .mk files often modify variables and behavior based on the
22values of variables set in the Makefile.  To make this work, remember that
23the FIRST target found is the target that is used, i.e. if the Makefile has:
24
25	a:
26		echo a
27	a:
28		echo a number two
29
30the command "make a" will echo "a".  To make things confusing, the SECOND
31variable assignment is the overriding one, i.e. if the Makefile has:
32
33	a=	foo
34	a=	bar
35
36	b:
37		echo ${a}
38
39the command "make b" will echo "bar".  This is for compatibility with the
40way the V7 make behaved.
41
42It's fairly difficult to make the BSD .mk files work when you're building
43multiple programs in a single directory.  It's a lot easier to split up the
44programs than to deal with the problem.  Most of the agony comes from making
45the "obj" directory stuff work right, not because we switched to a new version
46of make.  So, don't get mad at us, figure out a better way to handle multiple
47architectures so we can quit using the symbolic link stuff.  (Imake doesn't
48count.)
49
50The file .depend in the source directory is expected to contain dependencies
51for the source files.  This file is read automatically by make after reading
52the Makefile.
53
54The variable DESTDIR works as before.  It's not set anywhere but will change
55the tree where the file gets installed.
56
57The profiled libraries are no longer built in a different directory than
58the regular libraries.  A new suffix, ".po", is used to denote a profiled
59object, and ".so" denotes a shared (position-independent) object.
60
61There are various make variables used during the build.  Basic rule for
62the variable naming scheme is as follows:
63
64MKxxx		Can be set to `no' by a user to disable functionality.
65		Defaults to `yes' (or usually does)
66
67NOxxx		If defined, disables a feature.  Not intended for users,
68		it's to allow Makefiles to disable functionality that
69		they don't support (such as missing man pages).
70		NOxxx variables must be defined before <bsd.own.mk>
71		is included.
72
73The following variables that control how things are made/installed that
74are not set by default. These should not be set by Makefiles; they're for
75the user to define in MAKECONF (see bsd.own.mk, below) or on the make(1)
76command line:
77
78BUILD 		If defined, 'make install' checks that the targets in the
79		source directories are up-to-date and remakes them if they
80                are out of date, instead of blindly trying to install
81                out of date or non-existent targets.
82
83UPDATE 		If defined, 'make install' only installs targets that are
84		more recently modified in the source directories that their
85		installed counterparts.
86
87UNPRIVED	If defined, don't set the owner/group/mode when installing
88		files or directories, and keep a metadata log of what
89		the owner/group/mode should be.  This allows a
90		non-root "make install".
91
92MKBFD		If "no", don't build libbfd, libiberty, or any of
93		the things that depend on them (binutils/gas/ld,
94		gdb, dbsym, mdsetimage).
95
96MKCATPAGES	If "no", don't build or install the catman pages.
97
98MKDOC		If "no", don't build or install the documentation.
99
100MKGDB		If "no", don't build gdb.
101
102MKGCC		If "no", don't build gcc or any of the gcc-related
103		libraries (libg2c, libgcc, libobjc, libstdc++).
104
105MKIEEEFP	If "no", don't add code for IEEE754/IEC60559 conformance.
106		Has no effect on most platforms.
107
108MKINFO		If "no", don't build or install Info documentation from
109		Texinfo source files.
110
111MKLINT		If "no", don't build or install the lint libraries.
112
113MKMAN		If "no", don't build or install the man or catman pages.
114		Also acts as "MKCATPAGES=no"
115
116MKNLS		If "no", don't build or install the NLS files and locale
117		definition files.
118
119MKOBJ		If "no", don't enable the rule which creates objdirs.
120		"yes" by default.
121
122MKOBJDIRS	If "no", don't create objdirs during a "make build".
123		"no" by default.
124
125MKPIC		If "no", don't build or install shared libraries.
126
127MKPICINSTALL	If "no", don't install the *_pic.a libraries.
128
129MKPROFILE	If "no", don't build or install the profiling libraries.
130
131MKSHARE		If "no", act as "MKCATPAGES=no MKDOC=no MKINFO=no MKMAN=no
132		MKNLS=no".  I.e, don't build catman pages, documentation,
133		Info documentation, man pages, NLS files, ...
134

137The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD
138environment or otherwise.  You probably don't want to touch this file.
139If you intend to run a cross build, you will need to supply the following
140host tools, and configure the following variables properly:
141
142OBJCOPY		objcopy - copy and translate object files
143
144STRIP		strip - Discard symbols from object files
145
146CONFIG		config - build kernel compilation directories
147
148RPCGEN		rpcgen - Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol compiler
149
150MKLOCALE	mklocale - make LC_CTYPE locale files
151
152MTREE		mtree - build directory tree from a spec file
153
154=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
155
156The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their
157links.
158
159It has a two targets:
160
161	maninstall:
162		Install the manual page sources and their links.
163	catinstall:
164		Install the preformatted manual pages and their links.
165
166It sets/uses the following variables:
167
168MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.
169
170MANGRP		Manual group.
171
172MANOWN		Manual owner.
173
174MANMODE		Manual mode.
175
176MANSUBDIR	Subdirectory under the manual page section, i.e. "/vax"
177		or "/tahoe" for machine specific manual pages.
178
179MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
180
181MLINKS		List of manual page links (using a .1 - .9 suffix).  The
182		linked-to file must come first, the linked file second,
183		and there may be multiple pairs.  The files are soft-linked.
184
185The include file <bsd.man.mk> includes a file named "../Makefile.inc" if
186it exists.
187
188=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
189
190The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters,
191such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and
192a few global "feature configuration" parameters.
193
194It has no targets.
195
196To get system-specific configuration parameters, bsd.own.mk will try to
197include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable.  If MAKECONF is not
198set, or no such file exists, the system make configuration file, /etc/mk.conf
199is included.  These files may define any of the variables described below.
200
201bsd.own.mk sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
202(defaults are in brackets):
203
204NETBSDSRCDIR	Top of the NetBSD source tree.
205		If _SRC_TOP_ != "", that will be used as the default,
206		otherwise BSDSRCDIR will be used as the default.
207		Various makefiles within the NetBSD source tree will
208		use this to reference the top level of the source tree.
209
210_SRC_TOP_	Top of the system source tree, as determined by <bsd.own.mk>
211		based on the presence of tools/ and build.sh.  This variable
212		is "internal" to <bsd.own.mk>, although its value is only
213		determined once and then propagated to all sub-makes.

246		${LIBDIR} as the base path for shared library installation.
247		[/usr/lib]
248
249_LIBSODIR	Set to ${SHLIBDIR} if ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes",

285		own install script so that the entire system can be made
286		stripped/not-stripped using a single knob. [-s]
287
288COPY		The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
289		to be copied rather than moved.  This is to be used when
290		building our own install script so that the entire system
291		can either be installed with copies, or with moves using
292		a single knob. [-c]
293
294Additionally, the following variables may be set by bsd.own.mk or in a
295make configuration file to modify the behaviour of the system build
296process (default values are in brackets along with comments, if set by
297bsd.own.mk):
298
299MKCRYPTO	If set to "no", no cryptography support will be built
300		into the system.  Defaults to "yes".
301
302MKCRYPTO_IDEA	If set to "yes", IDEA support will be built into
303		libcrypto_idea.a.  Defaults to "no".
304

306		libcrypto_rc5.a.  Defaults to "no".
307
308MKHESIOD	If set to "no", disables building of Hesiod infrastructure
309		(libraries and support programs).
310
311MKKERBEROS	If set to "no", disables building of Kerberos (v4 or v5)
312		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
313
314MKSKEY		If set to "no", disables building of S/key authentication
315		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
316
317MKYP		If set to "no", disables building of YP (NIS)
318		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
319
320USE_HESIOD	If set to "no", disables building Hesiod support into
321		various system utilities/libraries that support it.
322		If MKHESIOD is set to "no", USE_HESIOD will also be
323		forced to "no".
324
325USE_KERBEROS	If set to "no", disables building Kerberos (v4 or v5)
326		support into various system utilities/libraries that
327		support it.  If MKKERBEROS is set to "no", USE_KERBEROS
328		will also be forced to "no".
329
330USE_SKEY	If set to "no", disables building S/key authentication
331		support into various system utilities/libraries that
332		support it.  If MKSKEY is set to "no", USE_SKEY will
333		also be forced to "no".
334
335USE_YP		If set to "no", disables building YP (NIS) support into
336		various system utilities/libraries that support it.  If
337		MKYP is set to "no", USE_YP will also be forced to "no".
338
339MANZ		Compress manual pages at installation time.
340
341SYS_INCLUDE	Copy or symlink kernel include files into /usr/include.
342		Possible values are "symlinks" or "copies" (which is
343		the same as the variable being unset).
344
345NOPROFILE	Do not build profiled versions of system libraries
346
347NOPIC		Do not build PIC versions of system libraries, and
348		do not build shared libraries.  [set if ${MACHINE_ARCH}
349		is "sh3" and ${OBJECT_FMT} is "COFF", unset otherwise.]
350
351NOLINT		Do not build lint libraries.
352
353OBJECT_FMT	Object file format. [set to "ELF" on architectures that
354		use ELF -- currently if ${MACHINE_ARCH} is "alpha",
355		"mipsel", "mipseb", "powerpc", "sparc", "sparc64",
356		"i386" and some m68k machines, or set to "a.out" on
357		other architectures].
358
359MKSOFTFLOAT	If "yes", build with options to enable the compiler to
360		generate output containing library calls for floating
361		point and possibly soft-float library support.  Defaults
362		to "no".
363
364TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
365		If "yes", this indicates that the platform being built
366		does not have a working in-tree toolchain.  If the
367		MACHINE_ARCH in question falls into this category, the
368		variable is conditionally assigned the value "yes".
369		Otherwise, the variable is unconditionally assigned the
370		value "no".
371
372		If TOOLCHAIN_MISSING is "yes", the variables MKBFD, MKGCC,
373		and MKGDB are unconditionally assigned the value "no".
374
375EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN
376		This variable is not directly set by <bsd.own.mk>, but
377		including <bsd.own.mk> is the canonical way to gain
378		access to this variable.  The variable should be defined
379		either in the user's environment or in the user's mk.conf
380		file.  If defined, this variable indicates the root of
381		an external toolchain which will be used to build the
382		tree.  For example, if a platform is a TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
383		platform, EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN can be used to re-enable the
384		cross-compile framework.
385
386		If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN is defined, the variable MKGCC is
387		unconditionally assigned the value "no", since the external
388		version of the compiler may not be able to build the library
389		components of the in-tree compiler.
390
391		NOTE: This variable is not yet used in as many places as
392		it should be.  Expect the exact semantics of this variable
393		to change in the short term as parts of the cross-compile
394		framework continue to be cleaned up.
395
396bsd.own.mk is generally useful when building your own Makefiles so that
397they use the same default owners etc. as the rest of the tree.
398
399=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
400
401The include file <bsd.prog.mk> handles building programs from one or
402more source files, along with their manual pages.  It has a limited number
403of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.
404
405It has eight targets:
406
407	all:
408		build the program and its manual page.  This also
409		creates a GDB initialization file (.gdbinit) in
410		the objdir.  The .gdbinit file sets the shared library
411		prefix to ${DESTDIR} to facilitate cross-debugging.
412	clean:
413		remove the program, any object files and the files a.out,
414		Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core.
415	cleandir:
416		remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as
417		well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages.
418		`distclean' is a synonym for `cleandir'.
419	depend:
420		make the dependencies for the source files, and store
421		them in the file .depend.
422	includes:
423		install any header files.
424	install:
425		install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile
426		does not itself define the target install, the targets
427		beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause
428		actions immediately before and after the install target
429		is executed.
430	lint:
431		run lint on the source files
432	tags:
433		create a tags file for the source files.
434
435It sets/uses the following variables:
436
437BINGRP		Binary group.
438
439BINOWN		Binary owner.
440
441BINMODE		Binary mode.
442
443CLEANFILES	Additional files to remove for the clean and cleandir targets.
444
445COPTS		Additional flags to the compiler when creating C objects.
446
447CPPFLAGS	Additional flags to the C pre-processor
448
449GDBINIT		List of GDB initialization files to add to "source"
450		directives in the .gdbinit file that is created in the
451		objdir.
452
453LDADD		Additional loader objects.  Usually used for libraries.
454		For example, to load with the compatibility and utility
455		libraries, use:
456
457			LDADD+=-lutil -lcompat
458
459LDFLAGS		Additional loader flags.
460
461LINKS		The list of binary links; should be full pathnames, the
462		linked-to file coming first, followed by the linked
463		file.  The files are hard-linked.  For example, to link
464		/bin/test and /bin/[, use:
465
466			LINKS=	${DESTDIR}/bin/test ${DESTDIR}/bin/[
467
468SYMLINKS	The list of symbolic links; should be full pathnames.
469                Syntax is identical to LINKS. Note that DESTDIR is not
470		automatically included in the link.
471
472MAN		Manual pages (should end in .1 - .9).  If no MAN variable is
473		defined, "MAN=${PROG}.1" is assumed.
474
475PROG		The name of the program to build.  If not supplied, nothing
476		is built.
477
478PROG_CXX	If defined, the name of the program to build.  Also
479		causes <bsd.prog.mk> to link the program with the C++
480		compiler rather than the C compiler.  PROG_CXX overrides
481		the value of PROG if PROG is also set.
482
483PROGNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
484		different from ${PROG}.
485
486SRCS		List of source files to build the program.  If SRCS is not
487		defined, it's assumed to be ${PROG}.c.
488
489DPADD		Additional dependencies for the program.  Usually used for
490		libraries.  For example, to depend on the compatibility and
491		utility libraries use:
492
493			DPADD+=${LIBCOMPAT} ${LIBUTIL}
494
495		The following libraries are predefined for DPADD:
496
497		LIBCRT0?=	${DESTDIR}/usr/lib/crt0.o
498		LIBBZ2?=	${DESTDIR}/usr/lib/libbz2.a

558SHAREDSTRINGS	If defined, a new .c.o rule is used that results in shared
559		strings, using xstr(1). Note that this will not work with
560		parallel makes.
561
562STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
563		to be stripped.
564
565SUBDIR		A list of subdirectories that should be built as well.
566		Each of the targets will execute the same target in the
567		subdirectories.
568
569SCRIPTS		A list of interpreter scripts [file.{sh,csh,pl,awk,...}].
570		These are installed exactly like programs.
571
572SCRIPTSNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
573		different from ${SCRIPTS}. These can be further specialized
574		by setting SCRIPTSNAME_<script>.
575
576FILES		A list of files to install. The installation is controlled
577		by the FILESNAME, FILESOWN, FILESGRP, FILESMODE, FILESDIR
578		variables that can be further specialized by FILES<VAR>_<file>
579
580SHLINKDIR	Target directory for shared linker.
581
582The include file <bsd.prog.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
583if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.
584
585Some simple examples:
586
587To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.1, use:
588
589	PROG=	foo
590
591	.include <bsd.prog.mk>
592
593To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.2, add the line:
594
595	MAN=	foo.2
596
597If foo does not have a manual page at all, add the line:
598
599	MKMAN=	no
600
601If foo has multiple source files, add the line:
602
603	SRCS=	a.c b.c c.c d.c
604

607The include file <bsd.subdir.mk> contains the default targets for building
608subdirectories.  It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, 
609clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags.  For all of
610the directories listed in the variable SUBDIR, the specified directory 
611will be visited and the target made.  There is also a default target which
612allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in
613the variable SUBDIR.
614
615As a special case, the use of a token .WAIT as an entry in SUBDIR acts
616as a synchronization barrier when multiple make jobs are run; subdirs
617before the .WAIT must complete before any subdirs after .WAIT are
618started.  See make(1) for some caveats on use of .WAIT and other
619special sources.

623The include file <bsd.links.mk> handles the LINKS and SYMLINKS variables
624and is included from from bsd.lib.mk and bsd.prog.mk.

632
633The include file <bsd.inc.mk> defines the includes target and uses two
634variables:
635
636INCS		The list of include files
637
638INCSDIR		The location to install the include files.
639
640INCSNAME	Target name of the include file, if only one; same as
641		FILESNAME, but for include files.
642
643INCSNAME_<file>	The name file <file> should be installed as, if not <file>,
644		same as FILESNAME_<file>, but for include files.

647
648The include file <bsd.kinc.mk> defines the many targets (includes,
649subdirectories, etc.), and is used by kernel makefiles to handle
650include file installation.  It is intended to be included alone, by
651kernel Makefiles.  Please see bsd.kinc.mk for more details, and keep
652the documentation in that file up to date.

656The include file <bsd.info.mk> is used to generate and install GNU Info
657documentation from respective Texinfo source files.  It defines three
658implicit targets (.txi.info, .texi.info, and .texinfo.info), and uses the
659following variables:
660
661TEXINFO		List of Texinfo source files.  Info documentation will
662		consist of single files with the extension replaced by
663		.info.
664
665INFOFLAGS	Flags to pass to makeinfo.  []
666
667INSTALL_INFO	Name of install-info program.  [install-info]
668
669MAKEINFO	Name of makeinfo program.  [makeinfo]

673The include file <bsd.sys.mk> is used by <bsd.prog.mk> and
674<bsd.lib.mk>.  It contains overrides that are used when building
675the NetBSD source tree.  For instance, if "PARALLEL" is defined by
676the program/library Makefile, it includes a set of rules for lex and
677yacc that allow multiple lex and yacc targets to be built in parallel.
678
679Other variables of note (incomplete list):
680
681WARNS		Crank up gcc warning options; the distinct levels are:
682			WARNS=1
683			WARNS=2
684			WARNS=3
685
686FORMAT_AUDIT	If FORMAT_AUDIT is set, and WFORMAT is set and > 1, turn on
687WFORMAT 	-Wnetbsd-format-audit for extra-stringent format checking.
688		WFORMAT belongs in individual makefiles and/or
689		Makefile.inc files.  (set WFORMAT=1 in individual
690		makefiles if a program is not security critical and is
691		doing bizarre things with format strings which would
692		be even uglier if rewritten) FORMAT_AUDIT should go in
693		mk.conf if you're doing format-string auditing. 
694		FORMAT_AUDIT may go away in time.

697
698The include file <bsd.lib.mk> has support for building libraries.  It has
699the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, clean, cleandir, depend,
700includes, install, lint, and tags.  Additionally, it has a checkver target
701which checks for installed shared object libraries whose version is greater
702that the version of the source. It has a limited number of suffixes,
703consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.
704
705It sets/uses the following variables:
706
707LIB		The name of the library to build.
708
709LIBDIR		Target directory for libraries.
710
711SHLIBDIR	Target directory for shared libraries if ${USE_SHLIBDIR}
712		is "yes".
713
714USE_SHLIBDIR	If "yes", use ${SHLIBDIR} instead of ${LIBDIR}
715		as the path to install shared libraries to.
716		USE_SHLIBDIR must be defined before <bsd.own.mk> is included.
717
718LINTLIBDIR	Target directory for lint libraries.
719
720LIBGRP		Library group.
721
722LIBOWN		Library owner.
723
724LIBMODE		Library mode.
725
726LDADD		Additional loader objects.
727
728MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
729
730MKLINKLIB	If "no", act as "MKPICINSTALL=no MKPROFILE=no".
731		Also:
732			- don't install the .a libraries
733			- don't install _pic.a libraries on PIC systems
734			- don't build .a libraries on PIC systems
735			- don't install the .so symlink on ELF systems
736		I.e, only install the shared library (and the .so.major
737		symlink on ELF).
738
739MKPICLIB	If "no", don't build _pic.a libraries, and build the
740		shared object libraries from the .a libraries.  A
741		symlink is installed in ${DESTDIR}/usr/lib for the
742		_pic.a library pointing to the .a library.
743
744NOCHECKVER_<library>
745NOCHECKVER	If set, disables checking for installed shared object
746		libraries with versions greater than the source.  A
747		particular library name, without the "lib" prefix, may
748		be appended to the variable name to disable the check for
749		only that library.
750
751SRCS		List of source files to build the library.  Suffix types
752		.s, .c, and .f are supported.  Note, .s files are preferred
753		to .c files of the same name.  (This is not the default for
754		versions of make.)
755
756The include file <bsd.lib.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
757if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.
758
759It has rules for building profiled objects; profiled libraries are
760built by default.
761
762Libraries are ranlib'd when made.
763
764=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
765
766The include file <bsd.obj.mk> defines targets related to the creation
767and use of separated object and source directories.
768
769If an environment variable named MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is set, make(1) uses
770${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR} as the name of the object directory if
771it exists.  Otherwise make(1) looks for the existence of a
772subdirectory (or a symlink to a directory) of the source directory
773into which built targets should be placed.  If an environment variable
774named MAKEOBJDIR is set, make(1) uses its value as the name of the
775object directory; failing that, make first looks for a subdirectory
776named "obj.${MACHINE}", and if that doesn't exist, it looks for "obj".
777
778Object directories are not created automatically by make(1) if they
779don't exist; you need to run a separate "make obj".  (This will happen
780during a top-level build if "MKOBJDIRS" is set to a value other than
781"no").  When the source directory is a subdirectory of ${BSDSRCDIR} --
782and this is determined by a simple string prefix comparison -- object
783directories are created in a separate object directory tree, and a
784symlink to the object directory in that tree is created in the source
785directory; otherwise, "make obj" assumes that you're not in the main
786source tree and that it's not safe to use a separate object tree.
787
788Several variables used by <bsd.obj.mk> control exactly what
789directories and links get created during a "make obj":
790
791MAKEOBJDIR	If set, this is the component name of the object
792		directory.
793
794OBJMACHINE	If this is set but MAKEOBJDIR is not set, creates
795		object directories or links named "obj.${MACHINE}";
796		otherwise, just creates ones named "obj".
797
798USR_OBJMACHINE  If set, and the current directory is a subdirectory of
799		${BSDSRCDIR}, create object directory in the
800		corresponding subdirectory of ${BSDOBJDIR}.${MACHINE};
801		otherwise, create it in the corresponding subdirectory
802		of ${BSDOBJDIR}
803
804BUILDID		If set, the contents of this variable are appended
805		to the object directory name.  If OBJMACHINE is also
806		set, ".${BUILDID}" is added after ".${MACHINE}".
807

809
810The include file <bsd.kernobj.mk> defines variables related to the
811location of kernel sources and object directories.
812
813KERNSRCDIR	Is the location of the top of the kernel src.
814		It defaults to ${_SRC_TOP_}/sys
815
816KERNARCHDIR	Is the location of the machine dependent kernel
817		sources.  It defaults to arch/${MACHINE}
818		
819KERNCONFDIR	Is where the configuration files for kernels are
820		found; default is ${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/conf.
821
822KERNOBJDIR	Is the kernel build directory.  The kernel GENERIC for
823		instance will be compiled in ${KERNOBJDIR}/GENERIC.
824		The default value is
825		${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile
826		if it exists or the target 'obj' is being made.
827		Otherwise the default is
828		${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile.
829
830It is important that Makefiles (such as those under src/distrib) that
831wish to find compiled kernels use bsd.kernobj.mk and ${KERNOBJDIR}
832rather than make assumptions about the location of the compiled kernel.
