      BUILDING -- Procedure for building NetBSD from source code.       BUILDING -- Procedure for building NetBSD from source code.
   
 STATUS  
      This document is a work-in-progress.  As such, the information described  
      here may not match the reality of the build system as of this writing.  
      Once this document is completely in sync with reality, this paragraph  
      will be removed.  
   
      Discrepancies between this documentation and the current reality of  
      implementation are noted specially, as with the note below:  
   
      Note: This document applies only to platforms which use the new toolchain  
      as indicated by the default setting of TOOLCHAIN_MISSING in <bsd.own.mk>.  
      Platforms which have not yet been switched to the new toolchain should  
      continue building traditionally, using the notes specified in the file  
      UPDATING.

                          such as ksh88, but not ksh93), or /usr/local/bin/bash.
   
                          Most parts of the build require HOST_SH to be an
                          absolute path; however, build.sh allows it to be a
                          simple command name, which will be converted to an
                          absolute path by searching the PATH.

                    will be stored in the buildinfo variable in any kernels that
                    are built.  When such kernels are booted, the sysctl(7)
                    kern.buildinfo variable will report this value.  The string
                    may contain backslash escape sequences, such as ``\\''
                    (representing a backslash character) and ``\n'' (representing
                    a newline).
   
                    Default: Unset.
   
        BUILDSEED   GCC uses random numbers when compiling C++ code.  This
                    variable seeds the gcc random number generator using the
                    -frandom-seed flag with this value.  By default, it is set to
                    NetBSD-(majorversion).  Using a fixed value causes C++
                    binaries to be the same when built from the same sources,
                    resulting in identical (reproducible) builds.  Additional
                    information is available in the GCC documentation of
                    -frandom-seed.
   
        DESTDIR     Directory to contain the built NetBSD system.  If set,

                      Before ``make install-image'' is attempted, RELEASEDIR must
                      be populated by ``make release'' or equivalent.  The build

        If a host system's default shell does support the required features, then

        like
   
              /path/to/suitable/shell build.sh [options]
   
        The above command will usually enable build.sh to automatically set

        set of commands may be used instead:
   
              HOST_SH=/path/to/suitable/shell
              export HOST_SH
              ${HOST_SH} build.sh [options]
   
        If build.sh detects that it is being executed under an unsuitable shell,
        it attempts to exec a suitable shell instead, or prints an error message.

 BUGS  CAVEATS
      A few platforms are not yet using this build system.       After significant updates to third-party components in the source tree,
        the ``make cleandir'' operation may be insufficient to clean out old
        files in object directories.  Instead, one may have to manually remove
        the files.  Consult the UPDATING file for notices concerning this.
