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
100MKDYNAMICROOT	If "no", build programs in /bin and /sbin statically,
101		don't install certain libraries in /lib, and don't
102		install the shared linker into /libexec.
103
104MKGDB		If "no", don't build gdb.
105
106MKGCC		If "no", don't build gcc or any of the gcc-related
107		libraries (libg2c, libgcc, libobjc, libstdc++).
108
109MKIEEEFP	If "no", don't add code for IEEE754/IEC60559 conformance.
110		Has no effect on most platforms.
111
112MKINFO		If "no", don't build or install Info documentation from
113		Texinfo source files.
114
115MKLINT		If "no", don't build or install the lint libraries.
116
117MKMAN		If "no", don't build or install the man or catman pages.
118		Also acts as "MKCATPAGES=no"
119
120MKNLS		If "no", don't build or install the NLS files and locale
121		definition files.
122
123MKOBJ		If "no", don't enable the rule which creates objdirs.
124		"yes" by default.
125
126MKOBJDIRS	If "no", don't create objdirs during a "make build".
127		"no" by default.
128
129MKPIC		If "no", don't build or install shared libraries.
130
131MKPICINSTALL	If "no", don't install the *_pic.a libraries.
132
133MKPROFILE	If "no", don't build or install the profiling libraries.
134
135MKSHARE		If "no", act as "MKCATPAGES=no MKDOC=no MKINFO=no MKMAN=no
136		MKNLS=no".  I.e, don't build catman pages, documentation,
137		Info documentation, man pages, NLS files, ...
138

141The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD
142environment or otherwise.  You probably don't want to touch this file.
143If you intend to run a cross build, you will need to supply the following
144host tools, and configure the following variables properly:
145
146OBJCOPY		objcopy - copy and translate object files
147
148STRIP		strip - Discard symbols from object files
149
150CONFIG		config - build kernel compilation directories
151
152RPCGEN		rpcgen - Remote Procedure Call (RPC) protocol compiler
153
154MKLOCALE	mklocale - make LC_CTYPE locale files
155
156MTREE		mtree - build directory tree from a spec file
157
158=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
159
160The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their
161links.
162
163It has a two targets:
164
165	maninstall:
166		Install the manual page sources and their links.
167	catinstall:
168		Install the preformatted manual pages and their links.
169
170It sets/uses the following variables:
171
172MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.
173
174MANGRP		Manual group.
175
176MANOWN		Manual owner.
177
178MANMODE		Manual mode.
179
180MANSUBDIR	Subdirectory under the manual page section, i.e. "/vax"
181		or "/tahoe" for machine specific manual pages.
182
183MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
184
185MLINKS		List of manual page links (using a .1 - .9 suffix).  The
186		linked-to file must come first, the linked file second,
187		and there may be multiple pairs.  The files are soft-linked.
188
189The include file <bsd.man.mk> includes a file named "../Makefile.inc" if
190it exists.
191
192=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
193
194The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters,
195such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and
196a few global "feature configuration" parameters.
197
198It has no targets.
199
200To get system-specific configuration parameters, bsd.own.mk will try to
201include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable.  If MAKECONF is not
202set, or no such file exists, the system make configuration file, /etc/mk.conf
203is included.  These files may define any of the variables described below.
204
205bsd.own.mk sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
206(defaults are in brackets):
207
208NETBSDSRCDIR	Top of the NetBSD source tree.
209		If _SRC_TOP_ != "", that will be used as the default,
210		otherwise BSDSRCDIR will be used as the default.
211		Various makefiles within the NetBSD source tree will
212		use this to reference the top level of the source tree.
213
214_SRC_TOP_	Top of the system source tree, as determined by <bsd.own.mk>
215		based on the presence of tools/ and build.sh.  This variable
216		is "internal" to <bsd.own.mk>, although its value is only
217		determined once and then propagated to all sub-makes.

250		${LIBDIR} as the base path for shared library installation.
251		[/lib]
252
253_LIBSODIR	Set to ${SHLIBDIR} if ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes",

287STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
288		to be stripped.  This is to be used when building your
289		own install script so that the entire system can be made
290		stripped/not-stripped using a single knob. [-s]
291
292COPY		The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
293		to be copied rather than moved.  This is to be used when
294		building our own install script so that the entire system
295		can either be installed with copies, or with moves using
296		a single knob. [-c]
297
298Additionally, the following variables may be set by bsd.own.mk or in a
299make configuration file to modify the behaviour of the system build

301bsd.own.mk):
302
303MKCRYPTO	If set to "no", no cryptography support will be built
304		into the system.  Defaults to "yes".
305
306MKCRYPTO_IDEA	If set to "yes", IDEA support will be built into
307		libcrypto_idea.a.  Defaults to "no".
308

310		libcrypto_rc5.a.  Defaults to "no".
311
312MKHESIOD	If set to "no", disables building of Hesiod infrastructure
313		(libraries and support programs).
314
315MKKERBEROS	If set to "no", disables building of Kerberos (v4 or v5)
316		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
317
318MKSKEY		If set to "no", disables building of S/key authentication
319		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
320
321MKYP		If set to "no", disables building of YP (NIS)
322		infrastructure (libraries and support programs).
323
324USE_HESIOD	If set to "no", disables building Hesiod support into
325		various system utilities/libraries that support it.
326		If MKHESIOD is set to "no", USE_HESIOD will also be
327		forced to "no".
328
329USE_KERBEROS	If set to "no", disables building Kerberos (v4 or v5)
330		support into various system utilities/libraries that
331		support it.  If MKKERBEROS is set to "no", USE_KERBEROS
332		will also be forced to "no".
333
334USE_SKEY	If set to "no", disables building S/key authentication
335		support into various system utilities/libraries that
336		support it.  If MKSKEY is set to "no", USE_SKEY will
337		also be forced to "no".
338
339USE_YP		If set to "no", disables building YP (NIS) support into
340		various system utilities/libraries that support it.  If
341		MKYP is set to "no", USE_YP will also be forced to "no".
342
343MANZ		Compress manual pages at installation time.
344
345SYS_INCLUDE	Copy or symlink kernel include files into /usr/include.
346		Possible values are "symlinks" or "copies" (which is
347		the same as the variable being unset).
348
349NOPROFILE	Do not build profiled versions of system libraries
350
351NOPIC		Do not build PIC versions of system libraries, and
352		do not build shared libraries.  [set if ${MACHINE_ARCH}
353		is "sh3" and ${OBJECT_FMT} is "COFF", unset otherwise.]
354
355NOLINT		Do not build lint libraries.
356
357OBJECT_FMT	Object file format. [set to "ELF" on architectures that
358		use ELF -- currently if ${MACHINE_ARCH} is "alpha",
359		"mipsel", "mipseb", "powerpc", "sparc", "sparc64",
360		"i386" and some m68k machines, or set to "a.out" on
361		other architectures].
362
363MKSOFTFLOAT	If "yes", build with options to enable the compiler to
364		generate output containing library calls for floating
365		point and possibly soft-float library support.  Defaults
366		to "no".
367
368TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
369		If "yes", this indicates that the platform being built
370		does not have a working in-tree toolchain.  If the
371		MACHINE_ARCH in question falls into this category, the
372		variable is conditionally assigned the value "yes".
373		Otherwise, the variable is unconditionally assigned the
374		value "no".
375
376		If TOOLCHAIN_MISSING is "yes", the variables MKBFD, MKGCC,
377		and MKGDB are unconditionally assigned the value "no".
378
379EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN
380		This variable is not directly set by <bsd.own.mk>, but
381		including <bsd.own.mk> is the canonical way to gain
382		access to this variable.  The variable should be defined
383		either in the user's environment or in the user's mk.conf
384		file.  If defined, this variable indicates the root of
385		an external toolchain which will be used to build the
386		tree.  For example, if a platform is a TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
387		platform, EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN can be used to re-enable the
388		cross-compile framework.
389
390		If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN is defined, the variable MKGCC is
391		unconditionally assigned the value "no", since the external
392		version of the compiler may not be able to build the library
393		components of the in-tree compiler.
394
395		NOTE: This variable is not yet used in as many places as
396		it should be.  Expect the exact semantics of this variable
397		to change in the short term as parts of the cross-compile
398		framework continue to be cleaned up.
399
400bsd.own.mk is generally useful when building your own Makefiles so that
401they use the same default owners etc. as the rest of the tree.
402
403=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
404
405The include file <bsd.prog.mk> handles building programs from one or
406more source files, along with their manual pages.  It has a limited number
407of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.
408
409It has eight targets:
410
411	all:
412		build the program and its manual page.  This also
413		creates a GDB initialization file (.gdbinit) in
414		the objdir.  The .gdbinit file sets the shared library
415		prefix to ${DESTDIR} to facilitate cross-debugging.
416	clean:
417		remove the program, any object files and the files a.out,
418		Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core.
419	cleandir:
420		remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as
421		well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages.
422		`distclean' is a synonym for `cleandir'.
423	depend:
424		make the dependencies for the source files, and store
425		them in the file .depend.
426	includes:
427		install any header files.
428	install:
429		install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile
430		does not itself define the target install, the targets
431		beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause
432		actions immediately before and after the install target
433		is executed.
434	lint:
435		run lint on the source files
436	tags:
437		create a tags file for the source files.
438
439It sets/uses the following variables:
440
441BINGRP		Binary group.
442
443BINOWN		Binary owner.
444
445BINMODE		Binary mode.
446
447CLEANFILES	Additional files to remove for the clean and cleandir targets.
448
449COPTS		Additional flags to the compiler when creating C objects.
450
451CPPFLAGS	Additional flags to the C pre-processor
452
453GDBINIT		List of GDB initialization files to add to "source"
454		directives in the .gdbinit file that is created in the
455		objdir.
456
457LDADD		Additional loader objects.  Usually used for libraries.
458		For example, to load with the compatibility and utility
459		libraries, use:
460
461			LDADD+=-lutil -lcompat
462
463LDFLAGS		Additional loader flags.
464
465LINKS		The list of binary links; should be full pathnames, the
466		linked-to file coming first, followed by the linked
467		file.  The files are hard-linked.  For example, to link
468		/bin/test and /bin/[, use:
469
470			LINKS=	${DESTDIR}/bin/test ${DESTDIR}/bin/[
471
472SYMLINKS	The list of symbolic links; should be full pathnames.
473                Syntax is identical to LINKS. Note that DESTDIR is not
474		automatically included in the link.
475
476MAN		Manual pages (should end in .1 - .9).  If no MAN variable is
477		defined, "MAN=${PROG}.1" is assumed.
478
479PROG		The name of the program to build.  If not supplied, nothing
480		is built.
481
482PROG_CXX	If defined, the name of the program to build.  Also
483		causes <bsd.prog.mk> to link the program with the C++
484		compiler rather than the C compiler.  PROG_CXX overrides
485		the value of PROG if PROG is also set.
486
487PROGNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
488		different from ${PROG}.
489
490SRCS		List of source files to build the program.  If SRCS is not
491		defined, it's assumed to be ${PROG}.c.
492
493DPADD		Additional dependencies for the program.  Usually used for
494		libraries.  For example, to depend on the compatibility and
495		utility libraries use:
496
497			DPADD+=${LIBCOMPAT} ${LIBUTIL}
498
499		The following libraries are predefined for DPADD:
500
501		LIBCRT0?=	${DESTDIR}/usr/lib/crt0.o
502		LIBBZ2?=	${DESTDIR}/usr/lib/libbz2.a

562SHAREDSTRINGS	If defined, a new .c.o rule is used that results in shared
563		strings, using xstr(1). Note that this will not work with
564		parallel makes.
565
566STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
567		to be stripped.
568
569SUBDIR		A list of subdirectories that should be built as well.
570		Each of the targets will execute the same target in the
571		subdirectories.
572
573SCRIPTS		A list of interpreter scripts [file.{sh,csh,pl,awk,...}].
574		These are installed exactly like programs.
575
576SCRIPTSNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
577		different from ${SCRIPTS}. These can be further specialized
578		by setting SCRIPTSNAME_<script>.
579
580FILES		A list of files to install. The installation is controlled
581		by the FILESNAME, FILESOWN, FILESGRP, FILESMODE, FILESDIR
582		variables that can be further specialized by FILES<VAR>_<file>
583
584SHLINKDIR	Target directory for shared linker.
585
586The include file <bsd.prog.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
587if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.
588
589Some simple examples:
590
591To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.1, use:
592
593	PROG=	foo
594
595	.include <bsd.prog.mk>
596
597To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.2, add the line:
598
599	MAN=	foo.2
600
601If foo does not have a manual page at all, add the line:
602
603	MKMAN=	no
604
605If foo has multiple source files, add the line:
606
607	SRCS=	a.c b.c c.c d.c
608

611The include file <bsd.subdir.mk> contains the default targets for building
612subdirectories.  It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, 
613clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags.  For all of
614the directories listed in the variable SUBDIR, the specified directory 
615will be visited and the target made.  There is also a default target which
616allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in
617the variable SUBDIR.
618
619As a special case, the use of a token .WAIT as an entry in SUBDIR acts
620as a synchronization barrier when multiple make jobs are run; subdirs
621before the .WAIT must complete before any subdirs after .WAIT are
622started.  See make(1) for some caveats on use of .WAIT and other
623special sources.

627The include file <bsd.links.mk> handles the LINKS and SYMLINKS variables
628and is included from from bsd.lib.mk and bsd.prog.mk.

632The include file <bsd.files.mk> handles the FILES variables and is included
633from bsd.lib.mk and bsd.prog.mk.
634

636
637The include file <bsd.inc.mk> defines the includes target and uses two
638variables:
639
640INCS		The list of include files
641
642INCSDIR		The location to install the include files.
643
644INCSNAME	Target name of the include file, if only one; same as
645		FILESNAME, but for include files.
646
647INCSNAME_<file>	The name file <file> should be installed as, if not <file>,
648		same as FILESNAME_<file>, but for include files.
649

651
652The include file <bsd.kinc.mk> defines the many targets (includes,
653subdirectories, etc.), and is used by kernel makefiles to handle
654include file installation.  It is intended to be included alone, by
655kernel Makefiles.  Please see bsd.kinc.mk for more details, and keep
656the documentation in that file up to date.

660The include file <bsd.info.mk> is used to generate and install GNU Info
661documentation from respective Texinfo source files.  It defines three
662implicit targets (.txi.info, .texi.info, and .texinfo.info), and uses the
663following variables:
664
665TEXINFO		List of Texinfo source files.  Info documentation will
666		consist of single files with the extension replaced by
667		.info.
668
669INFOFLAGS	Flags to pass to makeinfo.  []
670
671INSTALL_INFO	Name of install-info program.  [install-info]
672
673MAKEINFO	Name of makeinfo program.  [makeinfo]
674

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

701
702The include file <bsd.lib.mk> has support for building libraries.  It has
703the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, clean, cleandir, depend,
704includes, install, lint, and tags.  Additionally, it has a checkver target
705which checks for installed shared object libraries whose version is greater
706that the version of the source. It has a limited number of suffixes,
707consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.
708
709It sets/uses the following variables:
710
711LIB		The name of the library to build.
712
713LIBDIR		Target directory for libraries.
714
715SHLIBDIR	Target directory for shared libraries if ${USE_SHLIBDIR}
716		is "yes".
717
718USE_SHLIBDIR	If "yes", use ${SHLIBDIR} instead of ${LIBDIR}
719		as the path to install shared libraries to.
720		USE_SHLIBDIR must be defined before <bsd.own.mk> is included.
721
722LINTLIBDIR	Target directory for lint libraries.
723
724LIBGRP		Library group.
725
726LIBOWN		Library owner.
727
728LIBMODE		Library mode.
729
730LDADD		Additional loader objects.
731
732MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
733
734MKLINKLIB	If "no", act as "MKPICINSTALL=no MKPROFILE=no".
735		Also:
736			- don't install the .a libraries
737			- don't install _pic.a libraries on PIC systems
738			- don't build .a libraries on PIC systems
739			- don't install the .so symlink on ELF systems
740		I.e, only install the shared library (and the .so.major
741		symlink on ELF).
742
743MKPICLIB	If "no", don't build _pic.a libraries, and build the
744		shared object libraries from the .a libraries.  A
745		symlink is installed in ${DESTDIR}/usr/lib for the
746		_pic.a library pointing to the .a library.
747
748NOCHECKVER_<library>
749NOCHECKVER	If set, disables checking for installed shared object
750		libraries with versions greater than the source.  A
751		particular library name, without the "lib" prefix, may
752		be appended to the variable name to disable the check for
753		only that library.
754
755SRCS		List of source files to build the library.  Suffix types
756		.s, .c, and .f are supported.  Note, .s files are preferred
757		to .c files of the same name.  (This is not the default for
758		versions of make.)
759
760The include file <bsd.lib.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
761if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.
762
763It has rules for building profiled objects; profiled libraries are
764built by default.
765
766Libraries are ranlib'd when made.
767
768=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
769
770The include file <bsd.obj.mk> defines targets related to the creation
771and use of separated object and source directories.
772
773If an environment variable named MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is set, make(1) uses
774${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR} as the name of the object directory if
775it exists.  Otherwise make(1) looks for the existence of a
776subdirectory (or a symlink to a directory) of the source directory
777into which built targets should be placed.  If an environment variable
778named MAKEOBJDIR is set, make(1) uses its value as the name of the
779object directory; failing that, make first looks for a subdirectory
780named "obj.${MACHINE}", and if that doesn't exist, it looks for "obj".
781
782Object directories are not created automatically by make(1) if they
783don't exist; you need to run a separate "make obj".  (This will happen
784during a top-level build if "MKOBJDIRS" is set to a value other than
785"no").  When the source directory is a subdirectory of ${BSDSRCDIR} --
786and this is determined by a simple string prefix comparison -- object
787directories are created in a separate object directory tree, and a
788symlink to the object directory in that tree is created in the source
789directory; otherwise, "make obj" assumes that you're not in the main
790source tree and that it's not safe to use a separate object tree.
791
792Several variables used by <bsd.obj.mk> control exactly what
793directories and links get created during a "make obj":
794
795MAKEOBJDIR	If set, this is the component name of the object
796		directory.
797
798OBJMACHINE	If this is set but MAKEOBJDIR is not set, creates
799		object directories or links named "obj.${MACHINE}";
800		otherwise, just creates ones named "obj".
801
802USR_OBJMACHINE  If set, and the current directory is a subdirectory of
803		${BSDSRCDIR}, create object directory in the
804		corresponding subdirectory of ${BSDOBJDIR}.${MACHINE};
805		otherwise, create it in the corresponding subdirectory
806		of ${BSDOBJDIR}
807
808BUILDID		If set, the contents of this variable are appended
809		to the object directory name.  If OBJMACHINE is also
810		set, ".${BUILDID}" is added after ".${MACHINE}".
811

813
814The include file <bsd.kernobj.mk> defines variables related to the
815location of kernel sources and object directories.
816
817KERNSRCDIR	Is the location of the top of the kernel src.
818		It defaults to ${_SRC_TOP_}/sys
819
820KERNARCHDIR	Is the location of the machine dependent kernel
821		sources.  It defaults to arch/${MACHINE}
822		
823KERNCONFDIR	Is where the configuration files for kernels are
824		found; default is ${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/conf.
825
826KERNOBJDIR	Is the kernel build directory.  The kernel GENERIC for
827		instance will be compiled in ${KERNOBJDIR}/GENERIC.
828		The default value is
829		${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile
830		if it exists or the target 'obj' is being made.
831		Otherwise the default is
832		${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile.
833
834It is important that Makefiles (such as those under src/distrib) that
835wish to find compiled kernels use bsd.kernobj.mk and ${KERNOBJDIR}
836rather than make assumptions about the location of the compiled kernel.
