They have the same names but without the bsd., separate macro +files are needed to ensure we can make them do what we want for +builing things outside of /usr/src. Nearly all the comments below +apply. + +# $NetBSD: bsd.README,v 1.18 1997/01/13 00:54:23 mark Exp $ +# @(#)bsd.README 5.1 (Berkeley) 5/11/90 + +This is the README file for the new make "include" files for the BSD +source tree. The files are installed in /usr/share/mk, and are, by +convention, named with the suffix ".mk". + +Note, this file is not intended to replace reading through the .mk +files for anything tricky. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +RANDOM THINGS WORTH KNOWING: + +The files are simply C-style #include files, and pretty much behave like +you'd expect. The syntax is slightly different in that a single '.' is +used instead of the hash mark, i.e. ".include <bsd.prog.mk>". + +One difference that will save you lots of debugging time is that inclusion +of the file is normally done at the *end* of the Makefile. The reason for +this is because .mk files often modify variables and behavior based on the +values of variables set in the Makefile. To make this work, remember that +the FIRST target found is the target that is used, i.e. if the Makefile has: + + a: + echo a + a: + echo a number two + +the command "make a" will echo "a". To make things confusing, the SECOND +variable assignment is the overriding one, i.e. if the Makefile has: + + a= foo + a= bar + + b: + echo ${a} + +the command "make b" will echo "bar". This is for compatibility with the +way the V7 make behaved. + +It's fairly difficult to make the BSD .mk files work when you're building +multiple programs in a single directory. It's a lot easier split up the +programs than to deal with the problem. Most of the agony comes from making +the "obj" directory stuff work right, not because we switch to a new version +of make. So, don't get mad at us, figure out a better way to handle multiple +architectures so we can quit using the symbolic link stuff. (Imake doesn't +count.) + +The file .depend in the source directory is expected to contain dependencies +for the source files. This file is read automatically by make after reading +the Makefile. + +The variable DESTDIR works as before. It's not set anywhere but will change +the tree where the file gets installed. + +The profiled libraries are no longer built in a different directory than +the regular libraries. A new suffix, ".po", is used to denote a profiled +object. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD +environment or otherwise. You probably don't want to touch this file. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their +links. + +It has a single target: + + maninstall: + Install the manual pages and their links. + +It sets/uses the following variables: + +MANDIR Base path for manual installation. + +MANGRP Manual group. + +MANOWN Manual owner. + +MANMODE Manual mode. + +MANSUBDIR Subdirectory under the manual page section, i.e. "/vax" + or "/tahoe" for machine specific manual pages. + +MAN The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix). + +MLINKS List of manual page links (using a .1 - .9 suffix). The + linked-to file must come first, the linked file second, + and there may be multiple pairs. The files are soft-linked. + +The include file <bsd.man.mk> includes a file named "../Makefile.inc" if +it exists. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters, +such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and +a few global "feature configuration" parameters. + +It has no targets. + +To get system-specific configuration parameters, bsd.own.mk will try to +include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable. If MAKECONF is not +set, or no such file exists, the system make configuration file, /etc/mk.conf +is included. These files may define any of the variables described below. + +bsd.own.mk sets the following variables, if they are not already defined +(defaults are in brackets): + +BSDSRCDIR The real path to the system sources, so that 'make obj' + will work correctly. [/usr/src] + +BSDOBJDIR The real path to the system 'obj' tree, so that 'make obj' + will work correctly. [/usr/obj] + +BINGRP Binary group. [bin] + +BINOWN Binary owner.

[${NONBINMODE}] + +STRIP The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary + to be stripped. This is to be used when building your + own install script so that the entire system can be made + stripped/not-stripped using a single knob.

It has a limited number +of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree. + +It has eight targets: + + all: + build the program and its manual page + clean: + remove the program, any object files and the files a.out, + Errs, errs, mklog, and core. + cleandir: + remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as + well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages. + depend: + make the dependencies for the source files, and store + them in the file .depend. + includes: + install any header files. + install: + install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile + does not itself define the target install, the targets + beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause + actions immediately before and after the install target + is executed. + lint: + run lint on the source files + tags: + create a tags file for the source files. + +It sets/uses the following variables: + +BINGRP Binary group. + +BINOWN Binary owner. + +BINMODE Binary mode. + +CLEANFILES Additional files to remove for the clean and cleandir targets. + +COPTS Additional flags to the compiler when creating C objects. + +HIDEGAME If HIDEGAME is defined, the binary is installed in + /usr/games/hide, and a symbolic link is created to + /usr/games/dm. + +LDADD Additional loader objects. Usually used for libraries. + For example, to load with the compatibility and utility + libraries, use: + + LDADD+=-lutil -lcompat + +LDFLAGS Additional loader flags. + +LINKS The list of binary links; should be full pathnames, the + linked-to file coming first, followed by the linked + file. The files are hard-linked. For example, to link + /bin/test and /bin/[, use: + + LINKS= ${DESTDIR}/bin/test ${DESTDIR}/bin/[ + +MAN Manual pages (should end in .1 - .9). If no MAN variable is + defined, "MAN=${PROG}.1" is assumed. + +PROG The name of the program to build. If not supplied, nothing + is built. + +SRCS List of source files to build the program. If PROG is not + defined, it's assumed to be ${PROG}.c. + +DPADD Additional dependencies for the program. Usually used for + libraries. For example, to depend on the compatibility and + utility libraries use: + + DPADD+=${LIBCOMPAT} ${LIBUTIL} + + The following libraries are predefined for DPADD: + + LIBC /lib/libc.a + LIBCOMPAT /usr/lib/libcompat.a + LIBCRYPT /usr/lib/libcrypt.a + LIBCURSES /usr/lib/libcurses.a + LIBDBM /usr/lib/libdbm.a + LIBDES /usr/lib/libdes.a + LIBL /usr/lib/libl.a + LIBKDB /usr/lib/libkdb.a + LIBKRB /usr/lib/libkrb.a + LIBKVM /usr/lib/libkvm.a + LIBM /usr/lib/libm.a + LIBMP /usr/lib/libmp.a + LIBPC /usr/lib/libpc.a + LIBPLOT /usr/lib/libplot.a + LIBRPC /usr/lib/sunrpc.a + LIBTERM /usr/lib/libterm.a + LIBUTIL /usr/lib/libutil.a + +SHAREDSTRINGS If defined, a new .c.o rule is used that results in shared + strings, using xstr(1). Note that this will not work with + parallel makes. + +STRIP The flag passed to the install program to cause the binary + to be stripped. + +SUBDIR A list of subdirectories that should be built as well. + Each of the targets will execute the same target in the + subdirectories. + +The include file <bsd.prog.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc" +if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>. + +Some simple examples: + +To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.1, use: + + PROG= foo + + .include <bsd.prog.mk> + +To build foo from foo.c with a manual page foo.2, add the line: + + MAN= foo.2 + +If foo does not have a manual page at all, add the line: + + NOMAN= noman + +If foo has multiple source files, add the line: + + SRCS= a.c b.c c.c d.c + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <bsd.subdir.mk> contains the default targets for building +subdirectories. It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, +clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags. For all of +the directories listed in the variable SUBDIRS, the specified directory +will be visited and the target made. There is also a default target which +allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in +the variable SUBDIRS. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <bsd.sys.mk> is used by <bsd.prog.mk> and +<bsd.lib.mk>. It contains overrides that are used when building +the NetBSD source tree. For instance, if "PARALLEL" is defined by +the program/library Makefile, it includes a set of rules for lex and +yacc that allow multiple lex and yacc targets to be built in parallel. + +=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= + +The include file <bsd.lib.mk> has support for building libraries. It has +the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all, clean, cleandir, depend, +includes, install, lint, and tags. It has a limited number of suffixes, +consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree. + +It sets/uses the following variables: + +LIB The name of the library to build. + +LIBDIR Target directory for libraries. + +LINTLIBDIR Target directory for lint libraries. + +LIBGRP Library group. + +LIBOWN Library owner. + +LIBMODE Library mode. + +LDADD Additional loader objects. + +MAN The manual pages to be installed (use a .1 - .9 suffix). + +SRCS List of source files to build the library. Suffix types + .s, .c, and .f are supported. Note, .s files are preferred + to .c files of the same name. (This is not the default for + versions of make.) + +The include file <bsd.lib.mk> includes the file named "../Makefile.inc" +if it exists, as well as the include file <bsd.man.mk>. + +It has rules for building profiled objects; profiled libraries are +built by default. + +Libraries are ranlib'd when made. |
