 This file is intended to be a brief introduction to the build  This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent
 process and a reference on what to do if something doesn't work.  changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for
   what to do if something doesn't work.
   
   For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD
   using build.sh, see the BUILDING file.
   
   Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before

 20040109:  20090616:
         Compatibility for old ffs superblock layouts has been          Native Xorg was upgraded.  Builds will need a clean objdir for
         added, and the restrictive fsck checks have been reenabled          src/external/mit/xorg.  Upgrading a system from sets will not
         when using those layouts.  If you have been using -current          work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
         since 20030402, you may find that fsck again signals fatal          subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to
         superblock mismatches.  To work around, you can use          be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.
         fsck_ffs -b 32 -c 4 to restore an alternate superblock  
         and complete the filesystem upgrade.  20090530:
           pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
 20031203:          detection.  It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
         New binutils builds may fail due to old dependencies.          ``pkg_admin rebuild''.
         It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that  
         the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.          audit-packages.conf(5) has been superseded by pkg_install.conf(5).
           The default configuration is the same.  Support for pkg_view(1) has
 20031111:          been retired.  The functionality of audit-packages(1) and
         A newer mkdep is needed.  Error noting that is          download-vulnerability-list(1) has moved into pkg_admin(1), wrapper
                 cc: Ambiguous abbreviation --          scripts that handle the common use cases are provided.
   
 20031008:  20081205:
         /usr/include/sys/disklabel_mbr.h was removed.          If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and
         It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that          /etc/rc.d/xfs from DESTDIR because those files were moved to the xetc
         the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.          set and will appear as extra files for MKX11=no update builds.
   
 20030906:  20080827:
         With the addition of siginfo support the old signal trampoline          If you built and installed a libc from sources between
         code has been deprecated to COMPAT_16. Make sure that your running          2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
         kernel has COMPAT_16 enabled before building userland.          which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
           Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
 20030801:          needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g:
         With the new openssl, there is some header and library shuffling.            $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
         rm -f /usr/include/des.h /usr/include/kerberosIV/* /lib/libdes* \  
         /usr/lib/libdes* before building.  20080813:
           MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
 20030703:          about .go files. You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
         Texinfo was updated to 4.6.  To avoid failures when trying to  
         build the included texinfo files, do:  20080731:
           WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
         cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo          time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
         make MKINFO=no dependall install          and userland (fsck_ffs in particular).  Please make sure you
           don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
 20030630:          especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem.  WAPBL
         Groff was updated to 1.19; it's probably necessary to do          also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format.  You
                 cd share/mk && make install          can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
                 cd src/gnu/usr.bin/groff  
                 make MKMAN=no dependall install  20080721:
         (untested).          Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
           isn't defined.
 20030516:  
         Due to bugs in the export handling code, invalid export lines  20080531:
         were accepted before and caused the kernel to panic when          The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
         mountd got restarted because it freed memory that had already          from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129. The drvctl(8)
         been freed. This has been fixed and the kernel checks          utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
         export addresses very strictly. If you upgrade your kernel,          won't work correctly. The following sequence of commands:
         make sure you also upgrade mountd, because if your export  
         file contains lines with an old inet4 address syntax (i.e.            $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
         a.b.c or a.b or a), they will get rejected by the new kernel.            $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
             $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
 20030402:  
         The superblock layout for FFS was changed.  If you have 1.6          leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
         fsck binaries, they will signal a fatal superblock mismatch  
         with the first alternate, because they compare too many  20080503:
         fields (even ones that aren't useful).  If possible, upgrade          The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
         your fsck_ffs binary before using a new kernel.  
         None of this signals actual filesystem damage.  20080521:
           For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
 20030324:          succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
         sendmail version 8.12.8 was imported.  Since sendmail is          ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist.  A fix for this
         now setgid to the smmsp group, and runs in "collection"          problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
         mode for most common activities, there is a new config          If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
         file called submit.cf that needs to live in /etc/mail.          remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
         The generic submit.cf sample in /usr/share/sendmail/cf  
         is named netbsd-msp.cf.  Upgrading your regular sendmail  20080303:
         configuration file is also strongly advised.          Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
   
         See the section named "MESSAGE SUBMISSION PROGRAM" in  20080126:
         the updated /usr/share/sendmail/README file for more          The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
         information.          stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub. You need to
           'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
 20030117:          avoid using the old assembly stub.
         Texinfo was updated to 4.3.  To avoid failures when trying to  
         build the included texinfo files, do:  20071209:
           The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments. If you
         cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo          get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
         make MKINFO=no dependall install          configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
   
 20021223:  20071115:
         The METALOG format changed slightly, to remove the leading          The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
         "${DESTDIR}" from path names.          argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
         This only affects people building with UNPRIVED.          anymore. The itesio(4) driver now uses the Super I/O address port
         For complete safety, remove the DESTDIR entirely and          rather than the EC address port. Please update your kernel
         update tools/mtree, before running make build.          configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
   
 20021219:  20071028:
         CVS repository layout was changed.  See the following for details          The pccons(4) driver has been removed from the NetBSD/shark port.
         if you are using (anonymous) cvs to update your tree.          You need to update any custom kernel configuration file you have
           to remove any references to pccons (which includes removing the
         http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/netbsd-announce/2002/12/19/0000.html          now useless XSERVER option) and replace them with the correct
           entries for the wscons driver.  See the GENERIC configuration file
 20021219:          for more details.
         install(1) had a '-N dbdir' option added, to specify an  
         alternate location to look up users & groups (instead  20070913:
         of the host system passwd(5) and group(5) databases).          A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
           enumerate interfaces was fixed.  The bug began to cause
         The build system was modified to take advantage of          problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
         this option (using ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc), so if you          implementation was repaired.  From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
         use USETOOLS==no, you may have to rebuild and          could not enumerate interfaces.  (These are noted because
         reinstall usr.bin/xinstall first.          normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
           sufficient to avoid this problem.)  Ensure that both kernel
 20021130:          and userland are from after 20070913.
         fparseln(3) moved from libutil to libc.  
         If building to DESTDIR=/, reinstall the includes  20070703:

                 make includes          the logic to pass down STRIP from mk been removed.  This forces
                 make do-lib-libc          a re-installation of tools.
         If using build.sh, "cd tools/compat && make clean"  
         before rebuilding the tools.  20070422:
           The way OS emulations lookup filenames inside the emulation root
 20021126:          has been changed.  Rather than modify the pathname (and copy back
         The mk.conf(5) variable SYS_INCLUDE has been deprecated,          to userspace) namei() and lookup() directly check the emulation
         including the optional "SYS_INCLUDE=symlinks" support.          root. One side effect is that absolute symlinks inside the emulated

           that has such links.
 20021121:          This might affect symlinks that have been added to reference outside
         The C run-time support files crtbegin.o and crtend.o          the emulated root.
         (and their companions crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o) were  
         split up, with new crti.o and crtn.o files resulting.  20070412:

         required files, but it *must* be rebuilt in order to  
         do this.  20070319:
           src/lib/libc/Makefile revision 1.129 broke libc and ld.elf_so
         An out-of-date libtool will result in shared libraries          on many platforms due to incorrect flags settings.  If you

         corrected.  
   20070210:
         NetBSD ARM ELF uses the soft-VFP floating point model by          src/sys/sys/{sa.h,savar.h} were removed.
         default.  However, the assembler lacked support for marking            find ${OBJDIR} \( -name .depend -o -name '*.d' \) -print \
         objects as using the VFP floating point format, and the                | xargs egrep -l '/sa.h|/savar.h' | xargs rm
         compiler was not properly passing the flag indicating "soft-VFP"          will allow dependencies on those files to get get rebuilt
         to the assembler.  
   20070209:
         Unfortunately, this means that the linker will now consider          The threading model was changed when the newlock2 branch
         old (i.e. not marked "softvfp") NetBSD ARM ELF objects to be          was merged to NetBSD-current.  If you boot with a new
         incompatible with new (properly marked) objects.          kernel (version 4.99.10), then you also need a new pthread
           library (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.7).  If you boot with
         The problem will only manifest itself if you attempt to compile          an old kernel, then you need the old pthread library
         a new program using the fixed toolchain, and link that program          (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.6).  Provided you keep the kernel and
         against old libraries which do not have the proper "softvfp"          the pthread library in sync, old threaded applications should

         WILL CONTINUE TO WORK PROPERLY.          is the only threaded application in the base system.
   
         The only work-around for the problem is to recompile all of  20061214:
         the libraries on the system.  The easiest way to do this for          Following the move of string_to_flags() and flags_to_string()
         system libraries is to install a binary snapshot; they are          from the bin/ls/ sources to libutil, users doing UPDATE builds
         generally available on releng.NetBSD.org.  Any packages you          will need to do a "make cleandir" in
         have installed which supply libraries will have to be recompiled                  tools/mtree/, tools/makefs/, tools/binstall/, tools/pax/,
         if you wish to link new programs against those libraries.                  bin/pax/, bin/ls/, usr.sbin/mtree/, usr.sbin/makefs/,
                   usr.bin/xinstall/, libexec/ftpd/, rescue/, as well
         If you have questions about this matter, please contact                  as the installation images in distrib/
         port-arm@NetBSD.org.          in order to excise stale references to the old stat_flags.h header
           file in the ls sources -- stat_flags.h has been removed.
 20021011:  
         Systrace has been improved to support privilege elevation.  20061108:
         Updating the kernel requires the userland part of systrace          The configure script used in the src/tools/gcc compiler has been
         to be rebuilt.          changed to indicate that our libc has ssp support built-in and
           does not depend on -lssp and -lssp-nonshared. You'll need to
 20021010:          make clean in src/tools/gcc first to rebuild the compiler.
         The config(8) grammar was changed to allow options to register  
         dependencies on attributes, as well as other options.  Users  20061009:
         must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new          The sysctl variables net.inet{,6}.tcp{,6}.newreno are no longer

 20021009:  20060814:
         A new attribute dependency syntax was introduced to config(8),          The vt, vidcconsole, kbd, and rpckbd drivers on acorn32 have been

         must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new          kernel configuration for an example.  X servers from the last
         kernel.          few years should cope.
   
 20021003:  20060703:
         Several changes have been made to the autoconfiguration          MPACPI is no more. We always configure PCI interrupts using ACPI
         framework.  Users must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config          if we have an ACPI kernel. The option MPACPI_SCANPCI has been renamed
         before building a new kernel.          to ACPI_SCANPCI. Thanks to work from fvdl.
   
 20021001:  20060627:
         The i386mp branch has been merged.  To compile a kernel, users          socket(2) has changed, and its system call has been versioned.
         will need to add the option 'cpu* at mainbus?' to their configuration          For userlands with the old version of socket(2), make sure that
         file.  Multiprocessor kernels will need          your kernel has 'options COMPAT_30' set, or else 'bad system call'
         ioapic*         at mainbus? apid ?          errors will result.
         options         MULTIPROCESSOR  
         options         COM_MPLOCK  
   
 20020922:  
         MKDYNAMICROOT=yes enabled by default, which means that  
         certain shared libraries are installed into /lib, the shared  
         linker is installed into /libexec, and all programs in /bin  
         and /sbin are dynamically linked.  
         If you do not use "make build", you should ensure that  
         you have the libraries and shared linker in the new locations,  
         with:  
                 make do-lib-csu do-lib-libc do-lib do-gnu-lib do-ld.elf_so  
   
 20020917:  
         USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN has been replaced with:  
             -   TOOLCHAIN_MISSING -- set to "yes" on platforms for which  
                 there is no working in-tree toolchain (hppa, ns32k, sh5,  
                 x86_64).  
             -   EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN -- if defined by the user, points to the  
                 root of an external toolchain (e.g. /usr/local/gnu).  This  
                 enables the cross-build framework even for TOOLCHAIN_MISSING  
                 platforms.  
   
 20020906:  
         gehenna-devsw has been merged into the trunk. Need to update and  
         reinstall usr.sbin/config before building the kernel.  
   
 20020822:  
         Crunched rescue tools (contents of /bin and /sbin, plus others)  
         are now provided in /rescue.  
   
         To ensure that these are built statically linked (no matter  
         what the setting of LDSTATIC is), use a crunchgen(1) built  
         from sources newer than 20020820 (see the next entry).  
   
 20020820:  
         crunchgen(1) changed to ensure that the generated program  
         is statically linked.  
   
         Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/crunch  
   
 20020605:  
         smmsp user/group has been added for sendmail.  
   
         Add the following into /etc/group:  
   
         smmsp:*:17:  
   
         and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):  
   
         smmsp:*:17:17::0:0:Sendmail Message Submission Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin  
   
 20020515:  
         sshd user/group has been added.  Need to hand add this in, or sshd  
         will not let you log in (with default, or UsePrivlegeSeparation=yes)  
   
         Add the following into /etc/group:  
   
         sshd:*:16:  
   
         and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):  
   
         sshd:*:16:16::0:0:& pseudo-user:/var/chroot/sshd:/sbin/nologin  
   
         Also /var/chroot/sshd directory needs to be present (digged as part of  
         the build process).  
   
 20020426:  
         NBUILDJOBS obsoleted in favor of just using -j.  
   
 20020426:  
         etc/postinstall added, which performs various checks for  
         configuration file updates and changes, and can fix most of  
         the problems identified.  
         This should make it much easier to upgrade a system's  
         configuration from earlier systems (as far back as NetBSD 1.5).  
   
 20020320:  
         <bsd.lib.mk> needs a new install(1) for its "-a cmd" support.  
         Build and install at usr.bin/xinstall before the build.  
   
 20020319:  
         Raw IPv6 socket now makes strict checking for sa_family and sa_len  
         on send(2) operation.  Be sure to have sbin/rtsol and usr.sbin/rtsold  
         newer than November 2001 when you upgrade the kernel.  
   
 20020311:  
         ssh configuration files were moved from /etc to /etc/ssh.  Beware  
         if you restart your machine from remote.  Note that sshd.conf needs  
         to be changed (due to the use of "/etc" inside).  
   
 20020223:  
         Users of the VAX port will need to rebuild and install gas  
         so it deal with the now present register prefix used in all  
         the VAX assembly files.  
   
 20020118:  
         ntpd user/group has been added.  Need to hand add this in or builds  
         will break as mtree aborts early.  
   
         Add the following into /etc/group:  
   
         ntpd:*:15:  
   
         and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):  
   
         ntpd:*:15:15::0:0:Ntpd pseudo-user:/var/chroot/ntpd:/sbin/nologin  
   
 20011207:  
         If you're attempting to build a snapshot on sparc64 and are getting  
         reloc errors from the toolchain groff binary this means your native  
         toolchain has some broken C++ bits.  
   
         To fix:  
   
         Build a new toolchain (i.e. build.sh -t)  
         Use the new toolchain to build and install natively (i.e. /usr/lib)  
   
         gnu/lib/libgcc  
         gnu/lib/libstdc++  
   
         After this a snapshot will be able to be built.  
   
 20011201:  
         In order for a sparc64 build to work you must have a working awk. If  
         you've built and installed a system with the new toolchain up to this  
         point you do not have a working awk as its ability to do floating  
         point is broken.  
   
         To build:  
   
         remake and install gnu/lib/libgcc  
         remake and install gnu/usr.bin/gawk into /usr/bin (make sure it links  
         against the new libgcc.a)  
   
 20011128:  
         Kernel config information was changed to use defflag in  
         the various "files" files.  Bug fixes to config(8) are  
         required in order for this to work properly.  Make sure  
         to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting  
         to build a new kernel.  
   
 20011030:  
         libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1)  
         before building libc.  
   
 20011029:  
         The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or  
         see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build  
         procedure in great detail.  BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN  
         build process, are intended in the long run to replace this  
         manual update log.  
   
         Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the  
         BUILDING document for caveats.  Generally, BUILDING supersedes  
         UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of  
         by the new build system.  
   
 20011028:  
         src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle  
         symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that  
         prevented this was corrected.  
   
         Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall  
         Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work  
         for you.  
   
 20011006:  
         /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of  
         absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't  
         understand the format.  
   
         Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree  
   
 20011004:  
         Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating  
         is suggested before running a snapshot build  
   
 20010915:  
         The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed  
         a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h.  There may be stale .depend  
         files that still reference this file.  
   
         Solution: "make cleandir && make dependall" in affected  
         directories.  
   
 20010803:  
         grep.info is now built from grep.texi using makeinfo.  Since it  
         requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before  
         building gnu/usr.bin/grep.  To install new texinfo, please follow  
         the instruction described in 20010726 entry.  
   
 20010803:  
         (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like  
         `fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand.  To build the  
         kernel successfully, you need to build and install a new toolchain,  
         (i.e., build.sh -t) or  (temporarily) comment out "options I686_CPU"  
         from your kernel configuration until you rebuild your userland.  
         See 20011029 above and BUILDING file in this directory for more information.  
         [updated 20020630 since i386 gas moved when USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN enabled]  
   
 20010731:  
         Bootloader update on ELF platforms.  DDB in kernels from before  
         this will be unable to read symbol tables provided by newer  
         bootloaders.  
   
 20010726:  
         Texinfo was updated to 4.0.  To avoid failures when trying to  
         build the included texinfo files, do:  
   
         cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo  
         make MKINFO=no dependall install  
   
 20010718:  
         Enabled correct .init/.fini processing in crt0.  The way this  
         was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means  
         make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the  
         timestamp on the wrong "dot_init.h").  
   
         The symptom you will see is that new programs die with SIGSEGV  
         if you have a stale dependency.  
   
         Solution: "make cleandir" in both lib/csu and libexec/ld.elf_so  
         before starting your build.  
   
 20010628:  
         A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug  
         in lint(1).  If you get a warning/error about a non-portable  
         bitfield, update your lint(1) before proceeding.  
   
 20010226:  
         Added named user/group to system. Need to hand add this in or builds  
         will break as mtree aborts early.  
   
         To work around add by hand:  
   
         named:*:14:  
   
         to /etc/group and add:  
   
         named:*:14:14::0:0:Named pseudo-user:/var/named:/sbin/nologin  
   
         to master.passwd (use vipw for instance if doing by hand).  
   
         Now a make build should progress.  
   
 20010219:  
         get/setprogname() added. Any hostprogs that may use this will need  
         to be bootstrapped manually until the host system is current.  
   
         Known problems: sys/arch/macppc/stand/fixcoff  
                         usr.sbin/config (adding -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP to  
                           CFLAGS and rebuilding should work)  
                         usr.sbin/mdsetimage - Build a static copy if  
                           building a snapshot before fully bootstrapped.  
   
 20010204:  
         prepare the code to compile with stricter gcc flags. in  
         particular start eliminating redundant declarations. Yacc  
         needs to be installed before make build.  
   
 20010114:  
         introduce .if commands(target) in make(1). You need to  
         bring everything up-to-date first, then without installing  
         anything make and install in usr.bin/make, then proceed  
         with make build.  
   
 20010101:  
         bsd.subdir.mk committed 20001230 had a bug which caused  
         afterinstall targets to run too soon; update again.  
   
 20001230:  
         New share/mk files needed to support .WAIT in SUBDIR variables.  
         If you get make errors,  
                 (cd share/mk; make install)  
         Also, PRINTOBJDIR has changed and is now used more heavily.  
   
 20001019:  
         The `ca' device driver has been replaced by `ld'; although the  
         major and minor numbers haven't changed, you should update your /dev  
         directory.  
   
 20000929:  
         The following make directives are obsoleted.  
         MKCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RC5 NOCRYPTO_IDEA  
         By default, RSA is built into libcrypto.  IDEA and RC5 will not be  
         built into libcrypto.  By using MKCRYPTO_{RC5,IDEA}, you can build  
         additional library libcrypto_{idea,rc5}.
