1.123     jmc         3: This file (UPDATING) is intended to be a brief reference to recent
                      4: changes that might cause problems in the build process, and a guide for
                      5: what to do if something doesn't work.
1.1       abs         6:
1.123     jmc         7: For a more detailed description of the recommended way to build NetBSD
                      8: using build.sh, see the BUILDING file.
                      9:
                     10: Note that much of the advice in this UPDATING file was written before
                     11: build.sh existed.  Nevertheless, the advice here may be useful for
                     12: working around specific problems with build.sh.

1.224   ! dholland   19:        The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an
        !            20:        update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
        !            21:        tools/gcc by hand.

                     24:        Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
                     25:        ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
                     26:        the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
                     27:        if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
                     28:        directory.

1.221     lukem      31:        Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp.  This can break
1.220     joerg      32:        the build of individual parts of the tree.  This is handled
                     33:        correctly by build.sh.  Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk
                     34:        and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed.

1.217     jruoho     36: 20101217:
                     37:        The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2)
                     38:        by default. It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and
                     39:        group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups.

                     43:        variables with names that contain '='. Revision 1.18 of env.c
                     44:        assumed that this was allowed. Installing a new libc with an
                     45:        old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to
                     46:        break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding,
                     47:        so building gcc will end up printing:
                     48:            checking dependency style of gcc... none
                     49:            configure: error: no usable dependency style found
                     50:        Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env.

                     60:        unless they are rebuilt.  If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes,
                     61:        you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/

1.214     dholland   71:        include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale.

                     80:        libXX.so.  All now stale regular .so files can be removed from

                     85:        but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed
                     86:        from the system when upgrading.
                     87:        As such, you will need to remove them from your object
                     88:        and destination directories.

1.206     dholland   97:        On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils)
                     98:        before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S.

                    107:        point for index(). Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a)
                    108:        may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o.

                    124:        can cause autoconf problems during the tool build for people
                    125:        who fail to clean out their tools objects properly. If you

                    132:        cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.

1.207     mbalmer   135:        The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type. You
                    136:        need to 'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory
                    137:        to avoid using the old assembly stub.

                    140:        pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
                    141:        detection.  It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
                    142:        ``pkg_admin rebuild''.

                    145:        time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
                    146:        1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
1.188     christos  147:           This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
                    148:           conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
1.184     christos  149:        2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
                    150:           before installing.
                    151:        3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
1.187     dholland  152:           your build breaks in the middle, don't despair. Make sure headers
1.184     christos  153:           are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
                    154:           and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
                    155:           libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
                    156:           the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
                    157:        4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
1.189     hubertf   158:           rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
                    159:           Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
                    160:           that depend on it.
1.186     christos  161:        5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
                    162:           will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
1.190     apb       163:        6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
                    164:           lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
                    165:           for utmp. You are better off removing the old files after
                    166:           upgrading.  The automated clearing of /var/run during
                    167:           boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
                    168:           newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
                    169:           files manually.
                    170:        7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
                    171:           accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
                    172:           removed.  The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
                    173:           /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
                    174:           the file.
1.196     dholland  175:        8. Application software that writes time_t to binary files on
                    176:           disk will break or need attention. Most notably: if you are
                    177:           using PostgreSQL < 8.4, you need to dump your databases,
                    178:           rebuild PostgreSQL with the new time_t, then restore.

                    183:        (done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
