9: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.99 mrg 10:
1.102 dbj 11: 20040109:
12: Compatibility for old ffs superblock layouts has been
13: added, and the restrictive fsck checks have been reenabled
14: when using those layouts. If you have been using -current
15: since 20030402, you may find that fsck again signals fatal
16: superblock mismatches. To work around, you can use
1.103 ! dbj 17: fsck_ffs -b 32 to restore an alternate superblock.
1.102 dbj 18:
1.99 mrg 19: 20031203:
1.100 keihan 20: New binutils builds may fail due to old dependencies.
1.99 mrg 21: It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that
22: the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.
1.98 wiz 23:
24: 20031111:
25: A newer mkdep is needed. Error noting that is
26: cc: Ambiguous abbreviation --
1.97 lukem 27:
28: 20031008:
29: /usr/include/sys/disklabel_mbr.h was removed.
30: It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that
31: the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.
1.96 christos 32:
33: 20030906:
34: With the addition of siginfo support the old signal trampoline
35: code has been deprecated to COMPAT_16. Make sure that your running
36: kernel has COMPAT_16 enabled before building userland.
1.94 christos 37:
38: 20030801:
1.95 wiz 39: With the new openssl, there is some header and library shuffling.
1.94 christos 40: rm -f /usr/include/des.h /usr/include/kerberosIV/* /lib/libdes* \
1.95 wiz 41: /usr/lib/libdes* before building.
1.92 wiz 42:
43: 20030703:
44: Texinfo was updated to 4.6. To avoid failures when trying to
45: build the included texinfo files, do:
46:
47: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
48: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.90 wiz 49:
50: 20030630:
1.101 junyoung 51: Groff was updated to 1.19; it's probably necessary to do
1.91 wiz 52: cd share/mk && make install
1.90 wiz 53: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/groff
54: make MKMAN=no dependall install
55: (untested).
1.89 christos 56:
57: 20030516:
58: Due to bugs in the export handling code, invalid export lines
59: were accepted before and caused the kernel to panic when
60: mountd got restarted because it freed memory that had already
61: been freed. This has been fixed and the kernel checks
62: export addresses very strictly. If you upgrade your kernel,
63: make sure you also upgrade mountd, because if your export
64: file contains lines with an old inet4 address syntax (i.e.
65: a.b.c or a.b or a), they will get rejected by the new kernel.
1.87 bjh21 66:
67: 20030402:
68: The superblock layout for FFS was changed. If you have 1.6
69: fsck binaries, they will signal a fatal superblock mismatch
70: with the first alternate, because they compare too many
71: fields (even ones that aren't useful). If possible, upgrade
72: your fsck_ffs binary before using a new kernel.
73: None of this signals actual filesystem damage.
1.85 atatat 74:
75: 20030324:
76: sendmail version 8.12.8 was imported. Since sendmail is
77: now setgid to the smmsp group, and runs in "collection"
78: mode for most common activities, there is a new config
79: file called submit.cf that needs to live in /etc/mail.
80: The generic submit.cf sample in /usr/share/sendmail/cf
81: is named netbsd-msp.cf. Upgrading your regular sendmail
82: configuration file is also strongly advised.
83:
84: See the section named "MESSAGE SUBMISSION PROGRAM" in
85: the updated /usr/share/sendmail/README file for more
86: information.
1.82 wiz 87:
88: 20030117:
89: Texinfo was updated to 4.3. To avoid failures when trying to
90: build the included texinfo files, do:
91:
92: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
93: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.81 lukem 94:
95: 20021223:
96: The METALOG format changed slightly, to remove the leading
97: "${DESTDIR}" from path names.
98: This only affects people building with UNPRIVED.
99: For complete safety, remove the DESTDIR entirely and
100: update tools/mtree, before running make build.
1.88 itojun 101:
102: 20021219:
103: CVS repository layout was changed. See the following for details
104: if you are using (anonymous) cvs to update your tree.
105:
1.93 salo 106: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/netbsd-announce/2002/12/19/0000.html
1.80 lukem 107:
108: 20021219:
109: install(1) had a '-N dbdir' option added, to specify an
110: alternate location to look up users & groups (instead
111: of the host system passwd(5) and group(5) databases).
112:
113: The build system was modified to take advantage of
114: this option (using ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc), so if you
1.83 kei 115: use USETOOLS==no, you may have to rebuild and
1.80 lukem 116: reinstall usr.bin/xinstall first.
1.78 lukem 117:
118: 20021130:
119: fparseln(3) moved from libutil to libc.
120: If building to DESTDIR=/, reinstall the includes
121: and rebuild libc:
122: make includes
123: make do-lib-libc
124: If using build.sh, "cd tools/compat && make clean"
125: before rebuilding the tools.
1.77 lukem 126:
127: 20021126:
128: The mk.conf(5) variable SYS_INCLUDE has been deprecated,
129: including the optional "SYS_INCLUDE=symlinks" support.
130: All header files, including <sys/*.h> are copied into
131: /usr/include.
1.76 thorpej 132:
133: 20021121:
134: The C run-time support files crtbegin.o and crtend.o
135: (and their companions crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o) were
136: split up, with new crti.o and crtn.o files resulting.
137: This means that libtool needs to be rebuilt once the
138: new libraries are installed. The process of rebuilding
139: libtool will cause it to automatically notice the new
140: required files, but it *must* be rebuilt in order to
141: do this.
142:
143: An out-of-date libtool will result in shared libraries
144: which lack _init() and _fini() routines, which means that
145: their global contructors/destructors will not be invoked.
1.75 thorpej 146:
147: 20021121:
148: A bug related to how ARM ELF objects were tagged has been
149: corrected.
150:
151: NetBSD ARM ELF uses the soft-VFP floating point model by
152: default. However, the assembler lacked support for marking
153: objects as using the VFP floating point format, and the
1.79 wiz 154: compiler was not properly passing the flag indicating "soft-VFP"
1.75 thorpej 155: to the assembler.
156:
157: Unfortunately, this means that the linker will now consider
158: old (i.e. not marked "softvfp") NetBSD ARM ELF objects to be
159: incompatible with new (properly marked) objects.
160:
161: The problem will only manifest itself if you attempt to compile
162: a new program using the fixed toolchain, and link that program
163: against old libraries which do not have the proper "softvfp"
164: markings. ALL OF YOUR EXISTING BINARIES AND SHARED LIBRARIES
165: WILL CONTINUE TO WORK PROPERLY.
166:
167: The only work-around for the problem is to recompile all of
168: the libraries on the system. The easiest way to do this for
1.79 wiz 169: system libraries is to install a binary snapshot; they are
1.93 salo 170: generally available on releng.NetBSD.org. Any packages you
1.75 thorpej 171: have installed which supply libraries will have to be recompiled
172: if you wish to link new programs against those libraries.
173:
174: If you have questions about this matter, please contact
1.93 salo 175: port-arm@NetBSD.org.
1.73 provos 176:
177: 20021011:
178: Systrace has been improved to support privilege elevation.
179: Updating the kernel requires the userland part of systrace
1.79 wiz 180: to be rebuilt.
1.72 thorpej 181:
182: 20021010:
183: The config(8) grammar was changed to allow options to register
184: dependencies on attributes, as well as other options. Users
185: must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new
186: kernel.
1.70 thorpej 187:
188: 20021009:
189: A new attribute dependency syntax was introduced to config(8),
190: which is now used by the SCSI configuration description. Users
1.71 wiz 191: must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new
1.70 thorpej 192: kernel.
1.69 thorpej 193:
194: 20021003:
195: Several changes have been made to the autoconfiguration
196: framework. Users must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config
197: before building a new kernel.
1.74 jschauma 198:
199: 20021001:
200: The i386mp branch has been merged. To compile a kernel, users
201: will need to add the option 'cpu* at mainbus?' to their configuration
202: file. Multiprocessor kernels will need
203: ioapic* at mainbus? apid ?
204: options MULTIPROCESSOR
205: options COM_MPLOCK
1.68 lukem 206:
207: 20020922:
208: MKDYNAMICROOT=yes enabled by default, which means that
209: certain shared libraries are installed into /lib, the shared
210: linker is installed into /libexec, and all programs in /bin
211: and /sbin are dynamically linked.
212: If you do not use "make build", you should ensure that
213: you have the libraries and shared linker in the new locations,
214: with:
215: make do-lib-csu do-lib-libc do-lib do-gnu-lib do-ld.elf_so
1.67 lukem 216:
217: 20020917:
218: USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN has been replaced with:
219: - TOOLCHAIN_MISSING -- set to "yes" on platforms for which
220: there is no working in-tree toolchain (hppa, ns32k, sh5,
221: x86_64).
222: - EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN -- if defined by the user, points to the
1.79 wiz 223: root of an external toolchain (e.g. /usr/local/gnu). This
1.67 lukem 224: enables the cross-build framework even for TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
225: platforms.
1.66 gehenna 226:
227: 20020906:
228: gehenna-devsw has been merged into the trunk. Need to update and
1.79 wiz 229: reinstall usr.sbin/config before building the kernel.
1.65 lukem 230:
231: 20020822:
232: Crunched rescue tools (contents of /bin and /sbin, plus others)
233: are now provided in /rescue.
234:
235: To ensure that these are built statically linked (no matter
236: what the setting of LDSTATIC is), use a crunchgen(1) built
237: from sources newer than 20020820 (see the next entry).
238:
239: 20020820:
240: crunchgen(1) changed to ensure that the generated program
241: is statically linked.
242:
243: Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/crunch
1.84 grant 244:
245: 20020605:
246: smmsp user/group has been added for sendmail.
247:
248: Add the following into /etc/group:
249:
250: smmsp:*:17:
251:
252: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
253:
254: smmsp:*:17:17::0:0:Sendmail Message Submission Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
1.61 itojun 255:
256: 20020515:
257: sshd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in, or sshd
258: will not let you log in (with default, or UsePrivlegeSeparation=yes)
259:
260: Add the following into /etc/group:
261:
262: sshd:*:16:
263:
264: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
265:
1.63 enami 266: sshd:*:16:16::0:0:& pseudo-user:/var/chroot/sshd:/sbin/nologin
1.61 itojun 267:
1.79 wiz 268: Also /var/chroot/sshd directory needs to be present (digged as part of
269: the build process).
1.60 sommerfe 270:
271: 20020426:
272: NBUILDJOBS obsoleted in favor of just using -j.
1.59 lukem 273:
274: 20020426:
275: etc/postinstall added, which performs various checks for
276: configuration file updates and changes, and can fix most of
277: the problems identified.
278: This should make it much easier to upgrade a system's
279: configuration from earlier systems (as far back as NetBSD 1.5).
1.56 lukem 280:
281: 20020320:
1.79 wiz 282: <bsd.lib.mk> needs a new install(1) for its "-a cmd" support.
283: Build and install at usr.bin/xinstall before the build.
1.56 lukem 284:
1.55 itojun 285: 20020319:
1.79 wiz 286: Raw IPv6 socket now makes strict checking for sa_family and sa_len
287: on send(2) operation. Be sure to have sbin/rtsol and usr.sbin/rtsold
1.55 itojun 288: newer than November 2001 when you upgrade the kernel.
289:
1.54 itojun 290: 20020311:
291: ssh configuration files were moved from /etc to /etc/ssh. Beware
292: if you restart your machine from remote. Note that sshd.conf needs
293: to be changed (due to the use of "/etc" inside).
294:
295: 20020223:
1.53 matt 296: Users of the VAX port will need to rebuild and install gas
297: so it deal with the now present register prefix used in all
298: the VAX assembly files.
299:
1.50 itojun 300: 20020118:
301: ntpd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in or builds
302: will break as mtree aborts early.
303:
304: Add the following into /etc/group:
305:
306: ntpd:*:15:
307:
308: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
309:
310: ntpd:*:15:15::0:0:Ntpd pseudo-user:/var/chroot/ntpd:/sbin/nologin
311:
1.49 jmc 312: 20011207:
313: If you're attempting to build a snapshot on sparc64 and are getting
314: reloc errors from the toolchain groff binary this means your native
315: toolchain has some broken C++ bits.
316:
317: To fix:
318:
319: Build a new toolchain (i.e. build.sh -t)
320: Use the new toolchain to build and install natively (i.e. /usr/lib)
321:
322: gnu/lib/libgcc
1.51 pooka 323: gnu/lib/libstdc++
1.49 jmc 324:
325: After this a snapshot will be able to be built.
326:
1.47 jmc 327: 20011201:
328: In order for a sparc64 build to work you must have a working awk. If
329: you've built and installed a system with the new toolchain up to this
1.52 wiz 330: point you do not have a working awk as its ability to do floating
1.47 jmc 331: point is broken.
332:
333: To build:
334:
335: remake and install gnu/lib/libgcc
336: remake and install gnu/usr.bin/gawk into /usr/bin (make sure it links
1.48 jmc 337: against the new libgcc.a)
1.47 jmc 338:
1.46 thorpej 339: 20011128:
340: Kernel config information was changed to use defflag in
341: the various "files" files. Bug fixes to config(8) are
342: required in order for this to work properly. Make sure
343: to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting
344: to build a new kernel.
345:
1.45 yamt 346: 20011030:
347: libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1)
348: before building libc.
1.43 mason 349:
1.44 tv 350: 20011029:
351: The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or
352: see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build
353: procedure in great detail. BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN
354: build process, are intended in the long run to replace this
355: manual update log.
356:
357: Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the
358: BUILDING document for caveats. Generally, BUILDING supersedes
359: UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of
360: by the new build system.
1.42 perry 361:
362: 20011028:
363: src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle
364: symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that
365: prevented this was corrected.
366:
367: Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall
368: Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work
369: for you.
1.40 lukem 370:
371: 20011006:
372: /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of
373: absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't
374: understand the format.
375:
376: Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree
1.39 jmc 377:
378: 20011004:
379: Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating
380: is suggested before running a snapshot build
1.36 tv 381:
1.35 thorpej 382: 20010915:
383: The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed
384: a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h. There may be stale .depend
385: files that still reference this file.
386:
387: Solution: "make cleandir && make dependall" in affected
388: directories.
1.31 enami 389:
390: 20010803:
391: grep.info is now built from grep.texi using makeinfo. Since it
392: requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before
393: building gnu/usr.bin/grep. To install new texinfo, please follow
394: the instruction described in 20010726 entry.
1.30 enami 395:
1.64 sommerfe 396: 20010803:
1.41 wiz 397: (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like
398: `fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand. To build the
1.64 sommerfe 399: kernel successfully, you need to build and install a new toolchain,
400: (i.e., build.sh -t) or (temporarily) comment out "options I686_CPU"
401: from your kernel configuration until you rebuild your userland.
402: See 20011029 above and BUILDING file in this directory for more information.
403: [updated 20020630 since i386 gas moved when USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN enabled]
1.29 bjh21 404:
405: 20010731:
406: Bootloader update on ELF platforms. DDB in kernels from before
407: this will be unable to read symbol tables provided by newer
408: bootloaders.
1.27 assar 409:
410: 20010726:
411: Texinfo was updated to 4.0. To avoid failures when trying to
1.28 assar 412: build the included texinfo files, do:
413:
414: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
415: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.25 thorpej 416:
417: 20010718:
418: Enabled correct .init/.fini processing in crt0. The way this
419: was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means
420: make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the
421: timestamp on the wrong "dot_init.h").
422:
423: The symptom you will see is that new programs die with SIGSEGV
424: if you have a stale dependency.
425:
426: Solution: "make cleandir" in both lib/csu and libexec/ld.elf_so
427: before starting your build.
1.26 thorpej 428:
429: 20010628:
430: A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug
431: in lint(1). If you get a warning/error about a non-portable
432: bitfield, update your lint(1) before proceeding.
1.21 jmc 433:
434: 20010226:
1.22 jmc 435: Added named user/group to system. Need to hand add this in or builds
1.21 jmc 436: will break as mtree aborts early.
437:
438: To work around add by hand:
439:
440: named:*:14:
441:
1.22 jmc 442: to /etc/group and add:
443:
444: named:*:14:14::0:0:Named pseudo-user:/var/named:/sbin/nologin
445:
446: to master.passwd (use vipw for instance if doing by hand).
447:
448: Now a make build should progress.
1.18 jmc 449:
450: 20010219:
1.52 wiz 451: get/setprogname() added. Any hostprogs that may use this will need
1.20 jmc 452: to be bootstrapped manually until the host system is current.
1.18 jmc 453:
454: Known problems: sys/arch/macppc/stand/fixcoff
1.19 cgd 455: usr.sbin/config (adding -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP to
456: CFLAGS and rebuilding should work)
1.20 jmc 457: usr.sbin/mdsetimage - Build a static copy if
458: building a snapshot before fully bootstrapped.
1.15 christos 459:
460: 20010204:
461: prepare the code to compile with stricter gcc flags. in
462: particular start eliminating redundant declarations. Yacc

1.10 christos 469: with make build.

1.8 sommerfe 474:

476: New share/mk files needed to support .WAIT in SUBDIR variables.
477: If you get make errors,
478: (cd share/mk; make install)
479: Also, PRINTOBJDIR has changed and is now used more heavily.

1.7 ad 482: The `ca' device driver has been replaced by `ld'; although the
1.6 ad 483: major and minor numbers haven't changed, you should update your /dev
484: directory.

487: The following make directives are obsoleted.
488: MKCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RSA NOCRYPTO_RC5 NOCRYPTO_IDEA
489: By default, RSA is built into libcrypto. IDEA and RC5 will not be
1.16 wiz 490: built into libcrypto. By using MKCRYPTO_{RC5,IDEA}, you can build
1.4 itojun 491: additional library libcrypto_{idea,rc5}.

494: Hints for a more successful build:
495: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.2 mrg 496: Build a new kernel first:
497: This makes sure that any new system calls or features
498: expected by the new userland will be present. This
499: helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
1.1 abs 500: Use object directories:
501: This helps to keep stale object
502: files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
503: about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after
504: a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the
505: same source tree for multiple machines.
506: To use object directories:
507: a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
1.2 mrg 508: b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
509: c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
1.1 abs 510: d) cd /usr/src ; make build
1.2 mrg 511: Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
512: in obj.$MACHINE directory.
1.1 abs 513: Build to a DESTDIR:
514: This helps to keep old
515: installed files (especially libraries) from interfering
516: with the new build.
517: To build to a DESTDIR, set the DESTDIR environment
1.2 mrg 518: variable before running make build. It should be set to
519: the pathname of an initially empty directory.
1.1 abs 520: Problems: you might need to update critical utilities
521: without using DESTDIR since nothing is executed
522: from what is installed in DESTDIR.
523: (See critical utils, below)
524: Build often:
525: This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
526: on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
527: date functionality.
528:
529: What to do if things don't work:
530: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
531: When things don't work there is usually a few things that commonly
532: should be done.
533: 1) make includes
534: This should be done automatically by make build.
535: 2) cd share/mk && make install
536: Again, automatically done by make build.
537:
538: Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
539: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
540: To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
541: something like the following:
542: 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
543: 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular
544: utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...)
545: 3) cd ...path/to/util...
546: make cleandir
547: rm ...all obj directories...
548: make cleandir # yes, again
549: make obj
550: make depend && make
551:
552: Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
553: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
554: If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
1.2 mrg 555: ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
556: (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
557: for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
