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.

12
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" to disable functionality, or
65		"yes" to enable it.
66		Usually defaults to "yes", although some variables
67		default to "no".
68		Due to make(1) implementation issues, if a temporary
69		command-line override of a mk.conf or <bsd.own.mk> setting
70		is required whilst still honouring a particular
71		Makefile's setting of MKxxx, use
72			env MKxxx=value make
73		instead of
74			make MKxxx=value
75
76NOxxx		If defined, disables a feature.
77		Not intended for users.
78		This is to allow Makefiles to disable functionality
79		that they don't support (such as missing man pages).
80		NOxxx variables must be defined before <bsd.own.mk>
81		is included.
82
83The following variables that control how things are made/installed that
84are not set by default. These should not be set by Makefiles; they're for
85the user to define in MAKECONF (see <bsd.own.mk>, below) or on the make(1)
86command line:
87
88BUILD 		If defined, 'make install' checks that the targets in the
89		source directories are up-to-date and remakes them if they
90                are out of date, instead of blindly trying to install
91                out of date or non-existent targets.
92

257
258COPTS.lib<lib>
259LDADD.lib<lib>
260CPPFLAGS.lib<lib>
261CXXFLAGS.lib<lib>
262COPTS.<prog>
263LDADD.<prog>
264CPPFLAGS.<prog>
265CXXFLAGS.<prog>	These provide a way to specify additions to the associated
266		variables in a way that applies only to a particular library
267		or program.  <lib> corresponds to the LIB variable set in
268		the library's makefile.  <prog> corresponds to either PROG
269		or PROG_CXX (if set).  For example, if COPTS.libcrypto is
270		set to "-g", "-g" will be added to COPTS only when compiling
271		the crypto library.
272
273=-=-=-=-=   sys.mk   =-=-=-=-=
274
275The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD
276environment or otherwise.  You probably don't want to touch this file.
277
278=-=-=-=-=   bsd.own.mk   =-=-=-=-=
279
280The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters,
281such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and
282a few global "feature configuration" parameters.
283
284It has no targets.
285
286To get system-specific configuration parameters, <bsd.own.mk> will try to
287include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable.  If MAKECONF is not
288set, or no such file exists, the system make configuration file, /etc/mk.conf
289is included.  These files may define any of the variables described below.
290
291<bsd.own.mk> sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
292(defaults are in brackets):
293
294NETBSDSRCDIR	Top of the NetBSD source tree.
295		If _SRC_TOP_ != "", that will be used as the default,
296		otherwise BSDSRCDIR will be used as the default.
297		Various makefiles within the NetBSD source tree will
298		use this to reference the top level of the source tree.
299
300_SRC_TOP_	Top of the system source tree, as determined by <bsd.own.mk>
301		based on the presence of tools/ and build.sh.  This variable
302		is "internal" to <bsd.own.mk>, although its value is only
303		determined once and then propagated to all sub-makes.
304
305BSDSRCDIR	The real path to the system sources, so that 'make obj'
306		will work correctly.  [/usr/src]
307
308BSDOBJDIR	The real path to the system 'obj' tree, so that 'make obj'
309		will work correctly.  [/usr/obj]
310
311BINGRP		Binary group.  [wheel]
312
313BINOWN		Binary owner.  [root]
314
315BINMODE		Binary mode.  [555]
316
317NONBINMODE	Mode for non-executable files.  [444]
318
319MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.  [/usr/share/man/cat]
320
321MANGRP		Manual group.  [wheel]
322
323MANOWN		Manual owner.  [root]
324
325MANMODE		Manual mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]
326
327MANINSTALL	Manual installation type: maninstall, catinstall, or both
328
329LDSTATIC	Control program linking; if set blank, link everything
330		dynamically.  If set to "-static", link everything statically.
331		If not set, programs link according to their makefile.
332
333LIBDIR		Base path for library installation.  [/usr/lib]
334
335LINTLIBDIR	Base path for lint(1) library installation.  [/usr/libdata/lint]
336
337LIBGRP		Library group.  [${BINGRP}]
338
339LIBOWN		Library owner.  [${BINOWN}]
340
341LIBMODE		Library mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]
342
343DOCDIR		Base path for system documentation (e.g. PSD, USD, etc.)
344	        installation.  [/usr/share/doc]
345
346HTMLDOCDIR	Base path for html system documentation installation.
347		[/usr/share/doc/html]
348
349DOCGRP		Documentation group.  [wheel]
350
351DOCOWN		Documentation owner.  [root]
352
353DOCMODE		Documentation mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]
354
355NLSDIR		Base path for Native Language Support files installation.
356		[/usr/share/nls]
357
358NLSGRP		Native Language Support files group.  [wheel]
359
360NLSOWN		Native Language Support files owner.  [root]
361
362NLSMODE		Native Language Support files mode.  [${NONBINMODE}]
363
364STRIPFLAG	The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
365		to be stripped.  This is to be used when building your
366		own install script so that the entire system can be made
367		stripped/not-stripped using a single knob.  [-s]
368
369COPY		The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary
370		to be copied rather than moved.  This is to be used when
371		building our own install script so that the entire system
372		can either be installed with copies, or with moves using
373		a single knob.  [-c]
374
375Additionally, the following variables may be set by <bsd.own.mk> or in a
376make configuration file to modify the behaviour of the system build
377process (default values are in brackets along with comments, if set by
378<bsd.own.mk>):
379
380OBJECT_FMT	Object file format.  [set to "ELF" on architectures that
381		use ELF -- currently if ${MACHINE_ARCH} is "alpha",
382		"mipsel", "mipseb", "powerpc", "sparc", "sparc64",
383		"i386" and some m68k machines, or set to "a.out" on
384		other architectures].
385
386TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
387		If "yes", this indicates that the platform being built
388		does not have a working in-tree toolchain.  If the
389		MACHINE_ARCH in question falls into this category, the
390		variable is conditionally assigned the value "yes".
391		Otherwise, the variable is unconditionally assigned the
392		value "no".
393
394		If TOOLCHAIN_MISSING is "yes", the variables MKBFD, MKGCC,
395		and MKGDB are unconditionally assigned the value "no".
396
397EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN
398		This variable is not directly set by <bsd.own.mk>, but
399		including <bsd.own.mk> is the canonical way to gain
400		access to this variable.  The variable should be defined
401		either in the user's environment or in the user's mk.conf
402		file.  If defined, this variable indicates the root of
403		an external toolchain which will be used to build the
404		tree.  For example, if a platform is a TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
405		platform, EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN can be used to re-enable the
406		cross-compile framework.
407
408		If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN is defined, the variable MKGCC is
409		unconditionally assigned the value "no", since the external
410		version of the compiler may not be able to build the library
411		components of the in-tree compiler.
412
413		NOTE: This variable is not yet used in as many places as
414		it should be.  Expect the exact semantics of this variable
415		to change in the short term as parts of the cross-compile
416		framework continue to be cleaned up.
417
418<bsd.own.mk> is generally useful when building your own Makefiles so that
419they use the same default owners etc. as the rest of the tree.
420
421
422=-=-=-=-=   bsd.dep.mk   =-=-=-=-=
423
424The include file <bsd.dep.mk> contains the default targets for building
425.depend files.  It creates .d files from entries in SRCS and DPSRCS
426that are C, C++, or Objective C source files, and builds .depend from the
427.d files.  All other files in SRCS and all of DPSRCS will be used as
428dependencies for the .d files.  In order for this to function correctly,
429it should be .included after all other .mk files and directives that may
430modify SRCS or DPSRCS.  It uses the following variables:
431
432SRCS		List of source files to build the program.
433
434DPSRCS		List of source files which are needed for generating
435		dependencies, but are not needed in ${SRCS}.
436
437
438=-=-=-=-=   bsd.files.mk   =-=-=-=-=
439
440The include file <bsd.files.mk> handles the FILES variables and is included
441from <bsd.lib.mk> and <bsd.prog.mk>, and uses the following variables:
442
443FILES		The list of files to install.
444
445FILESOWN	File owner.  [${BINOWN}]
446
447FILESGRP	File group.  [${BINGRP}]
448
449FILESMODE	File mode.  [${BINMODE}]
450
451FILESDIR	The location to install the files.
452
453FILESNAME	Optional name to install each file as.
454
455FILESDIR.<fn>	The location to install the specific file <fn>.
456
457FILESNAME.<fn>	Optional name to install <fn> as.
458
459LNFILES		List of two word items:
460			lnsrc lntgt
461		For each lnsrc item, create a symlink named lntgt.
462		The lntgt symlinks are removed by the cleandir target.
463
464
465=-=-=-=-=   bsd.gcc.mk   =-=-=-=-=
466
467The include file <bsd.gcc.mk> computes various parameters related to GCC
468support libraries.  It defines no targets.  <bsd.own.mk> MUST be included
469before <bsd.gcc.mk>.
470
471The primary users of <bsd.gcc.mk> are <bsd.prog.mk> and <bsd.lib.mk>, each
472of which need to know where to find certain GCC support libraries.
473
474The behavior of <bsd.gcc.mk> is influenced by the EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN variable,
475which is generally set by the user.  If EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN it set, then
476the compiler is asked where to find the support libraries, otherwise the
477support libraries are found in ${DESTDIR}/usr/lib.
478
479<bsd.gcc.mk> sets the following variables:
480
481_GCC_CRTBEGIN	The full path name to crtbegin.o.
482
483_GCC_CRTBEGINS	The full path name to crtbeginS.o.
484
485_GCC_CRTEND	The full path name to crtend.o.
486
487_GCC_CRTENDS	The full path name to crtendS.o.
488
489_GCC_LIBGCCDIR	The directory where libgcc.a is located.
490
491
492=-=-=-=-=   bsd.inc.mk   =-=-=-=-=
493
494The include file <bsd.inc.mk> defines the includes target and uses the
495variables:
496
497INCS		The list of include files.
498
499INCSDIR		The location to install the include files.
500
501INCSNAME	Target name of the include file, if only one; same as
502		FILESNAME, but for include files.
503
504INCSYMLINKS	Similar to SYMLINKS in <bsd.links.mk>, except that these
505		are installed in the 'includes' target and not the
506		(much later) 'install' target.
507
508INCSNAME_<file>	The name file <file> should be installed as, if not <file>,
509		same as FILESNAME_<file>, but for include files.
510
511
512=-=-=-=-=   bsd.info.mk   =-=-=-=-=
513
514The include file <bsd.info.mk> is used to generate and install GNU Info
515documentation from respective Texinfo source files.  It defines three
516implicit targets (.txi.info, .texi.info, and .texinfo.info), and uses the
517following variables:
518
519TEXINFO		List of Texinfo source files.  Info documentation will
520		consist of single files with the extension replaced by
521		.info.
522
523INFOFLAGS	Flags to pass to makeinfo.  []
524
525
526=-=-=-=-=   bsd.kernobj.mk   =-=-=-=-=
527
528The include file <bsd.kernobj.mk> defines variables related to the
529location of kernel sources and object directories.
530
531KERNSRCDIR	Is the location of the top of the kernel src.
532		[${_SRC_TOP_}/sys]
533
534KERNARCHDIR	Is the location of the machine dependent kernel sources.
535		[arch/${MACHINE}]
536
537KERNCONFDIR	Is where the configuration files for kernels are found.
538		[${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/conf]
539
540KERNOBJDIR	Is the kernel build directory.  The kernel GENERIC for

542		The default value is
543		${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile
544		if it exists or the target 'obj' is being made.
545		Otherwise the default is
546		${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile.
547
548It is important that Makefiles (such as those under src/distrib) that
549wish to find compiled kernels use <bsd.kernobj.mk> and ${KERNOBJDIR}
550rather than make assumptions about the location of the compiled kernel.

553=-=-=-=-=   bsd.kinc.mk   =-=-=-=-=
554
555The include file <bsd.kinc.mk> defines the many targets (includes,
556subdirectories, etc.), and is used by kernel makefiles to handle
557include file installation.  It is intended to be included alone, by
558kernel Makefiles.  It uses similar variables to <bsd.inc.mk>.
559Please see <bsd.kinc.mk> for more details, and keep the documentation
560in that file up to date.
561
562
563=-=-=-=-=   bsd.lib.mk   =-=-=-=-=
564
565The include file <bsd.lib.mk> has support for building libraries.  It has
566the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, clean, cleandir, depend,
567includes, install, lint, and tags.  Additionally, it has a checkver target
568which checks for installed shared object libraries whose version is greater
569that the version of the source. It has a limited number of suffixes,
570consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.  <bsd.lib.mk> includes
571<bsd.shlib.mk> to get shared library parameters.
572
573It sets/uses the following variables:
574
575LIB		The name of the library to build.
576
577LIBDIR		Target directory for libraries.
578
579SHLIBINSTALLDIR	Target directory for shared libraries if ${USE_SHLIBDIR}
580		is "yes".
581
582USE_SHLIBDIR	If "yes", use ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} instead of ${LIBDIR}
583		as the path to install shared libraries to.
584		USE_SHLIBDIR must be defined before <bsd.own.mk> is included.
585		Default: no
586
587LINTLIBDIR	Target directory for lint libraries.
588
589LIBGRP		Library group.
590
591LIBOWN		Library owner.
592
593LIBMODE		Library mode.
594
595LDADD		Additional loader objects.
596
597MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
598
599NOCHECKVER_<library>
600NOCHECKVER	If set, disables checking for installed shared object
601		libraries with versions greater than the source.  A
602		particular library name, without the "lib" prefix, may
603		be appended to the variable name to disable the check for
604		only that library.
605
606SRCS		List of source files to build the library.  Suffix types
607		.s, .c, and .f are supported.  Note, .s files are preferred
608		to .c files of the same name.  (This is not the default for
609		versions of make.)
610
611The include file <bsd.lib.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc"
612if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>.
613
614It has rules for building profiled objects; profiled libraries are
615built by default.
616
617Libraries are ranlib'd when made.
618
619
620=-=-=-=-=   bsd.links.mk   =-=-=-=-=
621
622The include file <bsd.links.mk> handles the LINKS and SYMLINKS variables
623and is included from from <bsd.lib.mk> and <bsd.prog.mk>.
624
625LINKS		The list of hard links, consisting of pairs of paths:
626			source-file target-file
627		${DESTDIR} is prepended to both paths before linking.
628		For example, to link /bin/test and /bin/[, use:
629			LINKS=/bin/test /bin/[
630
631SYMLINKS	The list of symbolic links, consisting of pairs of paths:
632			source-file target-file
633		${DESTDIR} is only prepended to target-file before linking.
634		For example, to symlink /usr/bin/tar to /bin/tar resulting
635		in ${DESTDIR}/usr/bin/tar -> /bin/tar:
636			SYMLINKS=/bin/tar /usr/bin/tar
637
638
639=-=-=-=-=   bsd.man.mk   =-=-=-=-=
640
641The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their
642links.
643
644It has a two targets:
645
646	maninstall:
647		Install the manual page sources and their links.
648	catinstall:
649		Install the preformatted manual pages and their links.
650
651It sets/uses the following variables:
652
653MANDIR		Base path for manual installation.
654
655MANGRP		Manual group.
656
657MANOWN		Manual owner.
658
659MANMODE		Manual mode.
660
661MANSUBDIR	Subdirectory under the manual page section, i.e. "/vax"
662		or "/tahoe" for machine specific manual pages.
663
664MAN		The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix).
665
666MLINKS		List of manual page links (using a .1 - .9 suffix).  The
667		linked-to file must come first, the linked file second,
668		and there may be multiple pairs.  The files are soft-linked.
669
670The include file <bsd.man.mk> includes a file named "../Makefile.inc" if
671it exists.
672
673
674=-=-=-=-=   bsd.obj.mk   =-=-=-=-=
675
676The include file <bsd.obj.mk> defines targets related to the creation
677and use of separated object and source directories.
678
679If an environment variable named MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX is set, make(1) uses
680${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}${.CURDIR} as the name of the object directory if
681it exists.  Otherwise make(1) looks for the existence of a
682subdirectory (or a symlink to a directory) of the source directory
683into which built targets should be placed.  If an environment variable
684named MAKEOBJDIR is set, make(1) uses its value as the name of the
685object directory; failing that, make first looks for a subdirectory
686named "obj.${MACHINE}", and if that doesn't exist, it looks for "obj".
687
688Object directories are not created automatically by make(1) if they
689don't exist; you need to run a separate "make obj".  (This will happen
690during a top-level build if "MKOBJDIRS" is set to a value other than
691"no").  When the source directory is a subdirectory of ${BSDSRCDIR} --
692and this is determined by a simple string prefix comparison -- object
693directories are created in a separate object directory tree, and a
694symlink to the object directory in that tree is created in the source
695directory; otherwise, "make obj" assumes that you're not in the main
696source tree and that it's not safe to use a separate object tree.
697
698Several variables used by <bsd.obj.mk> control exactly what
699directories and links get created during a "make obj":
700
701MAKEOBJDIR	If set, this is the component name of the object
702		directory.
703
704OBJMACHINE	If this is set but MAKEOBJDIR is not set, creates
705		object directories or links named "obj.${MACHINE}";
706		otherwise, just creates ones named "obj".
707
708USR_OBJMACHINE  If set, and the current directory is a subdirectory of
709		${BSDSRCDIR}, create object directory in the
710		corresponding subdirectory of ${BSDOBJDIR}.${MACHINE};
711		otherwise, create it in the corresponding subdirectory
712		of ${BSDOBJDIR}
713
714BUILDID		If set, the contents of this variable are appended
715		to the object directory name.  If OBJMACHINE is also
716		set, ".${BUILDID}" is added after ".${MACHINE}".
717
718
719=-=-=-=-=   bsd.prog.mk   =-=-=-=-=
720
721The include file <bsd.prog.mk> handles building programs from one or
722more source files, along with their manual pages.  It has a limited number
723of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree. 
724<bsd.prog.mk> includes <bsd.shlib.mk> to get shared library parameters.
725
726It has eight targets:
727
728	all:
729		build the program and its manual page.  This also
730		creates a GDB initialization file (.gdbinit) in
731		the objdir.  The .gdbinit file sets the shared library
732		prefix to ${DESTDIR} to facilitate cross-debugging.
733	clean:
734		remove the program, any object files and the files a.out,
735		Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core.
736	cleandir:
737		remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as
738		well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages.
739		`distclean' is a synonym for `cleandir'.
740	depend:
741		make the dependencies for the source files, and store
742		them in the file .depend.
743	includes:
744		install any header files.
745	install:
746		install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile
747		does not itself define the target install, the targets
748		beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause
749		actions immediately before and after the install target
750		is executed.
751	lint:
752		run lint on the source files
753	tags:
754		create a tags file for the source files.
755
756It sets/uses the following variables:
757
758BINGRP		Binary group.
759
760BINOWN		Binary owner.
761
762BINMODE		Binary mode.
763
764CLEANFILES	Additional files to remove for the clean and cleandir targets.
765
766COPTS		Additional flags to the compiler when creating C objects.
767
768COPTS.<fn>	Additional flags to the compiler when creating the
769		C objects for <fn>.
770		For <fn>.[ly], "<fn>.c" must be used.
771
772CPUFLAGS	Additional flags to the compiler/assembler to select
773		CPU instruction set options, CPU tuning options, etc.
774
775CPUFLAGS.<fn>	Additional flags to the compiler/assembler for <fn>.
776		For <fn>.[ly], "<fn>.c" must be used.
777
778CPPFLAGS	Additional flags to the C pre-processor.
779
780CPPFLAGS.<fn>	Additional flags to the C pre-processor for <fn>.
781		For <fn>.[ly], "<fn>.c" must be used.
782
783GDBINIT		List of GDB initialization files to add to "source"
784		directives in the .gdbinit file that is created in the
785		objdir.
786
787LDADD		Additional loader objects.  Usually used for libraries.
788		For example, to load with the compatibility and utility
789		libraries, use:
790
791			LDADD+=-lutil -lcompat
792
793LDFLAGS		Additional loader flags.
794
795LINKS		See <bsd.links.mk>
796
797SYMLINKS	See <bsd.links.mk>
798
799MAN		Manual pages (should end in .1 - .9).  If no MAN variable is
800		defined, "MAN=${PROG}.1" is assumed.
801
802PROG		The name of the program to build.  If not supplied, nothing
803		is built.
804
805PROG_CXX	If defined, the name of the program to build.  Also
806		causes <bsd.prog.mk> to link the program with the C++
807		compiler rather than the C compiler.  PROG_CXX overrides
808		the value of PROG if PROG is also set.
809
810PROGNAME	The name that the above program will be installed as, if
811		different from ${PROG}.
812
813SRCS		List of source files to build the program.  If SRCS is not
814		defined, it's assumed to be ${PROG}.c.
815
816DPSRCS		List of source files which are needed for generating
817		dependencies, but are not needed in ${SRCS}.
818
819DPADD		Additional dependencies for the program.  Usually used for
820		libraries.  For example, to depend on the compatibility and
821		utility libraries use:
822
823			DPADD+=${LIBCOMPAT} ${LIBUTIL}
824
825		The following libraries are predefined for DPADD:

892SHAREDSTRINGS	If defined, a new .c.o rule is used that results in shared
893		strings, using xstr(1). Note that this will not work with
894		parallel makes.
895

897		to be stripped.
898
899SUBDIR		A list of subdirectories that should be built as well.
900		Each of the targets will execute the same target in the

932	MAN=	foo.2
933
934If foo does not have a manual page at all, add the line:
935
936	MKMAN=	no
937
938If foo has multiple source files, add the line:
939
940	SRCS=	a.c b.c c.c d.c
941
942
943=-=-=-=-=   bsd.rpc.mk   =-=-=-=-=
944
945The include file <bsd.rpc.mk> contains a makefile fragment used to
946construct source files built by rpcgen.
947
948The following macros may be defined in makefiles which include
949<bsd.rpc.mk> in order to control which files get built and how they
950are to be built:
951
952RPC_INCS:	construct .h file from .x file
953RPC_XDRFILES:	construct _xdr.c from .x file

955RPC_SVCFILES:	construct _svc.c from .x file
956		(server-side stubs)
957RPC_SVCFLAGS:	Additional flags passed to builds of RPC_SVCFILES.

964The include file <bsd.shlib.mk> computes parameters for shared library
965installation and use.  It defines no targets.  <bsd.own.mk> MUST be
966included before <bsd.shlib.mk>.
967
968<bsd.own.mk> sets the following variables, if they are not already defined
969(defaults are in brackets):
970
971SHLIBINSTALLDIR	If ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes", use ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} instead of
972		${LIBDIR} as the base path for shared library installation.
973		[/lib]
974
975SHLIBDIR	The path to USE_SHLIBDIR shared libraries to use when building
976		a program.  [/lib for programs in /bin and /sbin, /usr/lib
977		for all others.]
978
979_LIBSODIR	Set to ${SHLIBINSTALLDIR} if ${USE_SHLIBDIR} is "yes",
980		otherwise set to ${LIBDIR}
981
982SHLINKINSTALLDIR Base path for shared linker.  [/libexec]
983

989=-=-=-=-=   bsd.subdir.mk   =-=-=-=-=
990
991The include file <bsd.subdir.mk> contains the default targets for building
992subdirectories.  It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all,
993clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags.  For all of
994the directories listed in the variable SUBDIR, the specified directory
995will be visited and the target made.  There is also a default target which
996allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in
997the variable SUBDIR.
998
999As a special case, the use of a token .WAIT as an entry in SUBDIR acts
1000as a synchronization barrier when multiple make jobs are run; subdirs
1001before the .WAIT must complete before any subdirs after .WAIT are
1002started.  See make(1) for some caveats on use of .WAIT and other
1003special sources.

1203		WFORMAT belongs in individual makefiles and/or
1204		Makefile.inc files.  (set WFORMAT=1 in individual
1205		makefiles if a program is not security critical and is
1206		doing bizarre things with format strings which would
1207		be even uglier if rewritten) FORMAT_AUDIT should go in
1208		mk.conf if you're doing format-string auditing.
1209		FORMAT_AUDIT may go away in time.
