1.122   ! wiz         4:      BUILDING - Procedure for building NetBSD from source code.

1.105     wiz         6: REQUIREMENTS
1.1       tv          7:      NetBSD is designed to be buildable on most POSIX-compliant host systems.
1.105     wiz         8:      The basic build procedure is the same whether compiling natively (on the
                      9:      same NetBSD architecture) or cross compiling (on another architecture or
1.1       tv         10:      OS).
                     11:
                     12:      This source tree contains a special subtree, ``tools'', which uses the
                     13:      host system to create a build toolchain for the target architecture.  The
                     14:      host system must have at least C and C++ compilers in order to create the
1.105     wiz        15:      toolchain (make is not required); all other tools are created as part of
1.53      reed       16:      the NetBSD build process.  (See the environment variables section below
                     17:      if you need to override or manually select your compilers.)

1.44      lukem      31:                     native builds with an appropriately up-to-date version of
1.1       tv         32:                     NetBSD make(1).  (For building from out-of-date systems or
1.105     wiz        33:                     on a non-native host, see the build.sh shell script.)

1.1       tv         36:                     NetBSD.  It is important to read this file before every

                     38:

1.1       tv         40:                     build tools and the NetBSD system from scratch.  Can be
                     41:                     used for both native and cross builds, and should be used
                     42:                     instead of make(1) for any source tree that is updated and
                     43:                     recompiled regularly.

1.96      apb        96:                        suitable for use during the build.  The NetBSD build
                     97:                        system requires a modern Bourne-like shell with POSIX-

1.96      apb       102:

1.105     wiz       141:                        build.sh will create the ${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX} directory
                    142:                        if necessary, but if make(1) is used without build.sh,
1.88      apb       143:                        then rules in <bsd.obj.mk> will abort the build if the

1.105     wiz       146:                        ${MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX}/${.CURDIR} is used as the .OBJDIR
1.104     wiz       147:                        for the current directory.  The current directory may
1.105     wiz       148:                        be read only.  MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX can be provided only in
