1.99 mrg 10:
1.106 ! bjh21 11: 20040125:
! 12: On acorn32, the beep and sysbeep devices are no longer
! 13: needed, and will need to be deleted from kernel configuration
! 14: files.
1.105 bjh21 15:
1.102 dbj 16: 20040109:
17: Compatibility for old ffs superblock layouts has been
18: added, and the restrictive fsck checks have been reenabled
19: when using those layouts. If you have been using -current
20: since 20030402, you may find that fsck again signals fatal
21: superblock mismatches. To work around, you can use
1.104 dbj 22: fsck_ffs -b 32 -c 4 to restore an alternate superblock
23: and complete the filesystem upgrade.
1.102 dbj 24:
1.99 mrg 25: 20031203:
1.100 keihan 26: New binutils builds may fail due to old dependencies.
1.99 mrg 27: It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that
28: the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.
1.98 wiz 29:
30: 20031111:
31: A newer mkdep is needed. Error noting that is
32: cc: Ambiguous abbreviation --
1.97 lukem 33:
34: 20031008:
35: /usr/include/sys/disklabel_mbr.h was removed.
36: It's necessary to "make cleandir" to ensure that
37: the dependencies will be rebuilt correctly.
1.96 christos 38:
39: 20030906:
40: With the addition of siginfo support the old signal trampoline
41: code has been deprecated to COMPAT_16. Make sure that your running
42: kernel has COMPAT_16 enabled before building userland.
1.94 christos 43:
44: 20030801:
1.95 wiz 45: With the new openssl, there is some header and library shuffling.
1.94 christos 46: rm -f /usr/include/des.h /usr/include/kerberosIV/* /lib/libdes* \
1.95 wiz 47: /usr/lib/libdes* before building.
1.92 wiz 48:
49: 20030703:
50: Texinfo was updated to 4.6. To avoid failures when trying to
51: build the included texinfo files, do:
52:
53: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
54: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.90 wiz 55:
56: 20030630:
1.101 junyoung 57: Groff was updated to 1.19; it's probably necessary to do
1.91 wiz 58: cd share/mk && make install
1.90 wiz 59: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/groff
60: make MKMAN=no dependall install
61: (untested).
1.89 christos 62:
63: 20030516:
64: Due to bugs in the export handling code, invalid export lines
65: were accepted before and caused the kernel to panic when
66: mountd got restarted because it freed memory that had already
67: been freed. This has been fixed and the kernel checks
68: export addresses very strictly. If you upgrade your kernel,
69: make sure you also upgrade mountd, because if your export
70: file contains lines with an old inet4 address syntax (i.e.
71: a.b.c or a.b or a), they will get rejected by the new kernel.
1.87 bjh21 72:
73: 20030402:
74: The superblock layout for FFS was changed. If you have 1.6
75: fsck binaries, they will signal a fatal superblock mismatch
76: with the first alternate, because they compare too many
77: fields (even ones that aren't useful). If possible, upgrade
78: your fsck_ffs binary before using a new kernel.
79: None of this signals actual filesystem damage.
1.85 atatat 80:
81: 20030324:
82: sendmail version 8.12.8 was imported. Since sendmail is
83: now setgid to the smmsp group, and runs in "collection"
84: mode for most common activities, there is a new config
85: file called submit.cf that needs to live in /etc/mail.
86: The generic submit.cf sample in /usr/share/sendmail/cf
87: is named netbsd-msp.cf. Upgrading your regular sendmail
88: configuration file is also strongly advised.
89:
90: See the section named "MESSAGE SUBMISSION PROGRAM" in
91: the updated /usr/share/sendmail/README file for more
92: information.
1.82 wiz 93:
94: 20030117:
95: Texinfo was updated to 4.3. To avoid failures when trying to
96: build the included texinfo files, do:
97:
98: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
99: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.81 lukem 100:
101: 20021223:
102: The METALOG format changed slightly, to remove the leading
103: "${DESTDIR}" from path names.
104: This only affects people building with UNPRIVED.
105: For complete safety, remove the DESTDIR entirely and
106: update tools/mtree, before running make build.
1.88 itojun 107:
108: 20021219:
109: CVS repository layout was changed. See the following for details
110: if you are using (anonymous) cvs to update your tree.
111:
1.93 salo 112: http://mail-index.NetBSD.org/netbsd-announce/2002/12/19/0000.html
1.80 lukem 113:
114: 20021219:
115: install(1) had a '-N dbdir' option added, to specify an
116: alternate location to look up users & groups (instead
117: of the host system passwd(5) and group(5) databases).
118:
119: The build system was modified to take advantage of
120: this option (using ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc), so if you
1.83 kei 121: use USETOOLS==no, you may have to rebuild and
1.80 lukem 122: reinstall usr.bin/xinstall first.
1.78 lukem 123:
124: 20021130:
125: fparseln(3) moved from libutil to libc.
126: If building to DESTDIR=/, reinstall the includes
127: and rebuild libc:
128: make includes
129: make do-lib-libc
130: If using build.sh, "cd tools/compat && make clean"
131: before rebuilding the tools.
1.77 lukem 132:
133: 20021126:
134: The mk.conf(5) variable SYS_INCLUDE has been deprecated,
135: including the optional "SYS_INCLUDE=symlinks" support.
136: All header files, including <sys/*.h> are copied into
137: /usr/include.
1.76 thorpej 138:
139: 20021121:
140: The C run-time support files crtbegin.o and crtend.o
141: (and their companions crtbeginS.o and crtendS.o) were
142: split up, with new crti.o and crtn.o files resulting.
143: This means that libtool needs to be rebuilt once the
144: new libraries are installed. The process of rebuilding
145: libtool will cause it to automatically notice the new
146: required files, but it *must* be rebuilt in order to
147: do this.
148:
149: An out-of-date libtool will result in shared libraries
150: which lack _init() and _fini() routines, which means that
151: their global contructors/destructors will not be invoked.
1.75 thorpej 152:
153: 20021121:
154: A bug related to how ARM ELF objects were tagged has been
155: corrected.
156:
157: NetBSD ARM ELF uses the soft-VFP floating point model by
158: default. However, the assembler lacked support for marking
159: objects as using the VFP floating point format, and the
1.79 wiz 160: compiler was not properly passing the flag indicating "soft-VFP"
1.75 thorpej 161: to the assembler.
162:
163: Unfortunately, this means that the linker will now consider
164: old (i.e. not marked "softvfp") NetBSD ARM ELF objects to be
165: incompatible with new (properly marked) objects.
166:
167: The problem will only manifest itself if you attempt to compile
168: a new program using the fixed toolchain, and link that program
169: against old libraries which do not have the proper "softvfp"
170: markings. ALL OF YOUR EXISTING BINARIES AND SHARED LIBRARIES
171: WILL CONTINUE TO WORK PROPERLY.
172:
173: The only work-around for the problem is to recompile all of
174: the libraries on the system. The easiest way to do this for
1.79 wiz 175: system libraries is to install a binary snapshot; they are
1.93 salo 176: generally available on releng.NetBSD.org. Any packages you
1.75 thorpej 177: have installed which supply libraries will have to be recompiled
178: if you wish to link new programs against those libraries.
179:
180: If you have questions about this matter, please contact
1.93 salo 181: port-arm@NetBSD.org.
1.73 provos 182:
183: 20021011:
184: Systrace has been improved to support privilege elevation.
185: Updating the kernel requires the userland part of systrace
1.79 wiz 186: to be rebuilt.
1.72 thorpej 187:
188: 20021010:
189: The config(8) grammar was changed to allow options to register
190: dependencies on attributes, as well as other options. Users
191: must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new
192: kernel.
1.70 thorpej 193:
194: 20021009:
195: A new attribute dependency syntax was introduced to config(8),
196: which is now used by the SCSI configuration description. Users
1.71 wiz 197: must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config before building a new
1.70 thorpej 198: kernel.
1.69 thorpej 199:
200: 20021003:
201: Several changes have been made to the autoconfiguration
202: framework. Users must update and reinstall usr.sbin/config
203: before building a new kernel.
1.74 jschauma 204:
205: 20021001:
206: The i386mp branch has been merged. To compile a kernel, users
207: will need to add the option 'cpu* at mainbus?' to their configuration
208: file. Multiprocessor kernels will need
209: ioapic* at mainbus? apid ?
210: options MULTIPROCESSOR
211: options COM_MPLOCK
1.68 lukem 212:
213: 20020922:
214: MKDYNAMICROOT=yes enabled by default, which means that
215: certain shared libraries are installed into /lib, the shared
216: linker is installed into /libexec, and all programs in /bin
217: and /sbin are dynamically linked.
218: If you do not use "make build", you should ensure that
219: you have the libraries and shared linker in the new locations,
220: with:
221: make do-lib-csu do-lib-libc do-lib do-gnu-lib do-ld.elf_so
1.67 lukem 222:
223: 20020917:
224: USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN has been replaced with:
225: - TOOLCHAIN_MISSING -- set to "yes" on platforms for which
226: there is no working in-tree toolchain (hppa, ns32k, sh5,
227: x86_64).
228: - EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN -- if defined by the user, points to the
1.79 wiz 229: root of an external toolchain (e.g. /usr/local/gnu). This
1.67 lukem 230: enables the cross-build framework even for TOOLCHAIN_MISSING
231: platforms.
1.66 gehenna 232:
233: 20020906:
234: gehenna-devsw has been merged into the trunk. Need to update and
1.79 wiz 235: reinstall usr.sbin/config before building the kernel.
1.65 lukem 236:
237: 20020822:
238: Crunched rescue tools (contents of /bin and /sbin, plus others)
239: are now provided in /rescue.
240:
241: To ensure that these are built statically linked (no matter
242: what the setting of LDSTATIC is), use a crunchgen(1) built
243: from sources newer than 20020820 (see the next entry).
244:
245: 20020820:
246: crunchgen(1) changed to ensure that the generated program
247: is statically linked.
248:
249: Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/crunch
1.84 grant 250:
251: 20020605:
252: smmsp user/group has been added for sendmail.
253:
254: Add the following into /etc/group:
255:
256: smmsp:*:17:
257:
258: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
259:
260: smmsp:*:17:17::0:0:Sendmail Message Submission Program:/nonexistent:/sbin/nologin
1.61 itojun 261:
262: 20020515:
263: sshd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in, or sshd
264: will not let you log in (with default, or UsePrivlegeSeparation=yes)
265:
266: Add the following into /etc/group:
267:
268: sshd:*:16:
269:
270: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
271:
1.63 enami 272: sshd:*:16:16::0:0:& pseudo-user:/var/chroot/sshd:/sbin/nologin
1.61 itojun 273:
1.79 wiz 274: Also /var/chroot/sshd directory needs to be present (digged as part of
275: the build process).
1.60 sommerfe 276:
277: 20020426:
278: NBUILDJOBS obsoleted in favor of just using -j.
1.59 lukem 279:
280: 20020426:
281: etc/postinstall added, which performs various checks for
282: configuration file updates and changes, and can fix most of
283: the problems identified.
284: This should make it much easier to upgrade a system's
285: configuration from earlier systems (as far back as NetBSD 1.5).
1.56 lukem 286:
287: 20020320:
1.79 wiz 288: <bsd.lib.mk> needs a new install(1) for its "-a cmd" support.
289: Build and install at usr.bin/xinstall before the build.
1.56 lukem 290:
1.55 itojun 291: 20020319:
1.79 wiz 292: Raw IPv6 socket now makes strict checking for sa_family and sa_len
293: on send(2) operation. Be sure to have sbin/rtsol and usr.sbin/rtsold
1.55 itojun 294: newer than November 2001 when you upgrade the kernel.
295:
1.54 itojun 296: 20020311:
297: ssh configuration files were moved from /etc to /etc/ssh. Beware
298: if you restart your machine from remote. Note that sshd.conf needs
299: to be changed (due to the use of "/etc" inside).
300:
301: 20020223:
1.53 matt 302: Users of the VAX port will need to rebuild and install gas
303: so it deal with the now present register prefix used in all
304: the VAX assembly files.
305:
1.50 itojun 306: 20020118:
307: ntpd user/group has been added. Need to hand add this in or builds
308: will break as mtree aborts early.
309:
310: Add the following into /etc/group:
311:
312: ntpd:*:15:
313:
314: and the following to /etc/master.passwd (via vipw):
315:
316: ntpd:*:15:15::0:0:Ntpd pseudo-user:/var/chroot/ntpd:/sbin/nologin
317:
1.49 jmc 318: 20011207:
319: If you're attempting to build a snapshot on sparc64 and are getting
320: reloc errors from the toolchain groff binary this means your native
321: toolchain has some broken C++ bits.
322:
323: To fix:
324:
325: Build a new toolchain (i.e. build.sh -t)
326: Use the new toolchain to build and install natively (i.e. /usr/lib)
327:
328: gnu/lib/libgcc
1.51 pooka 329: gnu/lib/libstdc++
1.49 jmc 330:
331: After this a snapshot will be able to be built.
332:
1.47 jmc 333: 20011201:
334: In order for a sparc64 build to work you must have a working awk. If
335: you've built and installed a system with the new toolchain up to this
1.52 wiz 336: point you do not have a working awk as its ability to do floating
1.47 jmc 337: point is broken.
338:
339: To build:
340:
341: remake and install gnu/lib/libgcc
342: remake and install gnu/usr.bin/gawk into /usr/bin (make sure it links
1.48 jmc 343: against the new libgcc.a)
1.47 jmc 344:
1.46 thorpej 345: 20011128:
346: Kernel config information was changed to use defflag in
347: the various "files" files. Bug fixes to config(8) are
348: required in order for this to work properly. Make sure
349: to build and install in usr.sbin/config before attempting
350: to build a new kernel.
351:
1.45 yamt 352: 20011030:
353: libc/locale/wcstod.c now needs new lint(1). Update lint(1)
354: before building libc.
1.43 mason 355:
1.44 tv 356: 20011029:
357: The new document BUILDING.mdoc (view with nroff | more, or
358: see pre-generated .txt and .html versions) describes the build
359: procedure in great detail. BUILDING, and the USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN
360: build process, are intended in the long run to replace this
361: manual update log.
362:
363: Users building a USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN system should read the
364: BUILDING document for caveats. Generally, BUILDING supersedes
365: UPDATING for these systems, as tool updating is taken care of
366: by the new build system.
1.42 perry 367:
368: 20011028:
369: src/etc/Makefile now needs install to be able to handle
370: symlinks that point to nowhere. A bug in install that
371: prevented this was corrected.
372:
373: Solution: update and reinstall usr.bin/xinstall
374: Better Solution: Use the new toolchain and it will just work
375: for you.
1.40 lukem 376:
377: 20011006:
378: /etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist has been updated to take advantage of
379: absolute path support added to mtree(8). Older mtree(8)s don't
380: understand the format.
381:
382: Solution: update and reinstall usr.sbin/mtree
1.39 jmc 383:
384: 20011004:
385: Crunchgen has been updated to work via reach-over makefiles. Updating
386: is suggested before running a snapshot build
1.36 tv 387:
1.35 thorpej 388: 20010915:
389: The new "ubcperf" code committed by Chuck Silvers removed
390: a header file, uvm/uvm_vnode.h. There may be stale .depend
391: files that still reference this file.
392:
393: Solution: "make cleandir && make dependall" in affected
394: directories.
1.31 enami 395:
396: 20010803:
397: grep.info is now built from grep.texi using makeinfo. Since it
398: requires makeinfo v4.0, you need to install new texinfo before
399: building gnu/usr.bin/grep. To install new texinfo, please follow
400: the instruction described in 20010726 entry.
1.30 enami 401:
1.64 sommerfe 402: 20010803:
1.41 wiz 403: (i386 only): i386 kernel now uses new instructions like
404: `fxsave' which old gas doesn't understand. To build the
1.64 sommerfe 405: kernel successfully, you need to build and install a new toolchain,
406: (i.e., build.sh -t) or (temporarily) comment out "options I686_CPU"
407: from your kernel configuration until you rebuild your userland.
408: See 20011029 above and BUILDING file in this directory for more information.
409: [updated 20020630 since i386 gas moved when USE_NEW_TOOLCHAIN enabled]
1.29 bjh21 410:
411: 20010731:
412: Bootloader update on ELF platforms. DDB in kernels from before
413: this will be unable to read symbol tables provided by newer
414: bootloaders.
1.27 assar 415:
416: 20010726:
417: Texinfo was updated to 4.0. To avoid failures when trying to
1.28 assar 418: build the included texinfo files, do:
419:
420: cd src/gnu/usr.bin/texinfo
421: make MKINFO=no dependall install
1.25 thorpej 422:
423: 20010718:
424: Enabled correct .init/.fini processing in crt0. The way this
425: was done was to change a -I directive to cc(1), which means
426: make(1) will have a stale dependency (it will be checking the
427: timestamp on the wrong "dot_init.h").
428:
429: The symptom you will see is that new programs die with SIGSEGV
430: if you have a stale dependency.
431:
432: Solution: "make cleandir" in both lib/csu and libexec/ld.elf_so
433: before starting your build.
1.26 thorpej 434:
435: 20010628:
436: A construct was added to uvm_page.h that uncovered a bug
437: in lint(1). If you get a warning/error about a non-portable
438: bitfield, update your lint(1) before proceeding.
1.21 jmc 439:
440: 20010226:
1.22 jmc 441: Added named user/group to system. Need to hand add this in or builds
1.21 jmc 442: will break as mtree aborts early.
443:
444: To work around add by hand:
445:
446: named:*:14:
447:
1.22 jmc 448: to /etc/group and add:
449:
450: named:*:14:14::0:0:Named pseudo-user:/var/named:/sbin/nologin
451:
452: to master.passwd (use vipw for instance if doing by hand).
453:
454: Now a make build should progress.
1.18 jmc 455:
456: 20010219:
1.52 wiz 457: get/setprogname() added. Any hostprogs that may use this will need
1.20 jmc 458: to be bootstrapped manually until the host system is current.
1.18 jmc 459:
460: Known problems: sys/arch/macppc/stand/fixcoff
1.19 cgd 461: usr.sbin/config (adding -DMAKE_BOOTSTRAP to

500: Hints for a more successful build:
501: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.2 mrg 502: Build a new kernel first:
503: This makes sure that any new system calls or features
504: expected by the new userland will be present. This
505: helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
1.1 abs 506: Use object directories:
507: This helps to keep stale object
508: files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
509: about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after
510: a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the
511: same source tree for multiple machines.
512: To use object directories:
513: a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
1.2 mrg 514: b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
515: c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
1.1 abs 516: d) cd /usr/src ; make build
1.2 mrg 517: Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
518: in obj.$MACHINE directory.
1.1 abs 519: Build to a DESTDIR:
520: This helps to keep old
521: installed files (especially libraries) from interfering
522: with the new build.
523: To build to a DESTDIR, set the DESTDIR environment
1.2 mrg 524: variable before running make build. It should be set to
525: the pathname of an initially empty directory.
1.1 abs 526: Problems: you might need to update critical utilities
527: without using DESTDIR since nothing is executed
528: from what is installed in DESTDIR.
529: (See critical utils, below)
530: Build often:
531: This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
532: on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
533: date functionality.
534:
535: What to do if things don't work:
536: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
537: When things don't work there is usually a few things that commonly
538: should be done.
539: 1) make includes
540: This should be done automatically by make build.
541: 2) cd share/mk && make install
542: Again, automatically done by make build.
543:
544: Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
545: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
546: To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
547: something like the following:
548: 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
549: 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular
550: utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...)
551: 3) cd ...path/to/util...
552: make cleandir
553: rm ...all obj directories...
554: make cleandir # yes, again
555: make obj
556: make depend && make
557:
558: Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
559: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
560: If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
1.2 mrg 561: ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
562: (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
563: for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
