1.230 ! tls 1: $NetBSD: UPDATING,v 1.229 2011/09/30 22:17:50 jym Exp $
1.1 abs 2:
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.

1.230 ! tls 18:
! 19: 20111119:
! 20: A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8)
! 21: utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64
! 22: bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a
! 23: non-backwards-compatible way. If you replace your kernel,
! 24: replace your rndctl executable too.
! 25:
1.229 jym 26: 20111001:
27: the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
28: changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
29: one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
30: quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.
31:
1.228 mrg 32: 20110817:
33: sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
34: DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
35:
1.227 riastrad 36: 20110806:
37: i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any
38: objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
39:
1.226 mrg 40: 20110805:
41: The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of
42: the tree to be cleaned. Best to delete both objdir and
43: DESTDIR before running this update. So far, only the
44: sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed.
45:
1.225 matt 46: 20110803:
47: The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed. To do an
48: update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR
49: for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there
50: is now a directory.
51:
1.223 joerg 52: 20110410:
1.224 dholland 53: The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an
54: update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
55: tools/gcc by hand.
1.223 joerg 56:
1.222 plunky 57: 20110328:
58: Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
59: ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
60: the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
61: if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
62: directory.
63:
1.220 joerg 64: 20110121:
1.221 lukem 65: Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp. This can break
1.220 joerg 66: the build of individual parts of the tree. This is handled
67: correctly by build.sh. Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk
68: and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed.
1.218 joerg 69:
1.217 jruoho 70: 20101217:
71: The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2)
72: by default. It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and
73: group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups.
74:
1.216 christos 75: 20101125:
76: The latest changes to setenv(3) dissallow setting environment
77: variables with names that contain '='. Revision 1.18 of env.c
78: assumed that this was allowed. Installing a new libc with an
79: old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to
80: break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding,
81: so building gcc will end up printing:
82: checking dependency style of gcc... none
83: configure: error: no usable dependency style found
84: Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env.
1.138 lukem 85:
1.215 mrg 86: 20101119:
87: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ may cause various build
88: or run-time problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you
89: have any build problems with xsrc, or problems with mismatched
90: versions between xorg-server and drivers.
91:
1.213 jmmv 92: 20100604:
93: The update of ATF to 0.9 causes old tests written in shell to fail
94: unless they are rebuilt. If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes,
95: you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/
96: trees by hand.
97:
1.211 tnozaki 98: 20100522:
1.212 mrg 99: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ will cause various build
100: problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you have any
101: build problems with xsrc.
102:
103: 20100522:
1.211 tnozaki 104: private section of <ctype.h> was splitted, and now mklocale(1)
1.214 dholland 105: include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale.
1.211 tnozaki 106:
1.210 christos 107: 20100520:
108: The location of the xkb compiled descriptions has changed. Please
109: remove usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled from your $DESTDIR.
110:
1.209 njoly 111: 20100222:
112: The shared objects file extension has been changed from .so to
113: .pico, in order to avoid conflicts with shared libraries names
114: libXX.so. All now stale regular .so files can be removed from
115: your object directories.
116:
1.208 roy 117: 20100204:
118: The termcap database has been removed from the sources,
119: but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed
120: from the system when upgrading.
121: As such, you will need to remove them from your object
122: and destination directories.
123:
1.203 dyoung 124: 20091101:
1.205 dholland 125: After updating, it may be necessary to make the 'cleandir'
126: target in src/tools/yacc/ and in src/usr.bin/yacc/ before a
127: 'build.sh -u tools' or 'build.sh -u distribution'. Ditto
128: src/tools/lex/ and src/usr.bin/lex/.
1.203 dyoung 129:
1.202 mrg 130: 20091001:
1.206 dholland 131: On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils)
132: before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S.
133:
134: 20091001:
1.202 mrg 135: An error will create a ./usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/xkb
136: symlink, failing the build. Delete the link, and the subdir
137: it is in, and retry your build.
138:
1.201 dsl 139: 20090718:
140: libc build changed so that strchr() provides the extra entry
141: point for index(). Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a)
142: may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o.
143: (Similarly for strrchr() and rindex().)
144:
1.198 mrg 145: 20090709:
146: Native Xorg was upgraded again. Builds will probably fail again
147: without a clean objdir, at least for src/external/mit/xorg.
148:
1.197 mrg 149: 20090616:
150: Native Xorg was upgraded. Builds will need a clean objdir for
151: src/external/mit/xorg. Upgrading a system from sets will not
152: work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
153: subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to
154: be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.
155:
1.195 perry 156: 20090501:
157: Several new functions were added to string.h/libc, and this
158: can cause autoconf problems during the tool build for people
159: who fail to clean out their tools objects properly. If you
160: note messages about stpcpy, stpncpy or strnlen accompanying a
161: failure during the tool build, clean out all your tools
162: objects and start again.
163:
1.194 mrg 164: 20090325:
165: The i386 port was switched to i486 default toolchain. This requires
166: cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.
167:
1.192 skrll 168: 20090126:
1.207 mbalmer 169: The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type. You
170: need to 'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory
171: to avoid using the old assembly stub.
1.192 skrll 172:
1.191 joerg 173: 20090202:
174: pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
175: detection. It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
176: ``pkg_admin rebuild''.
177:
1.184 christos 178: 20090110:
179: time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
180: 1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
1.188 christos 181: This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
182: conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
1.184 christos 183: 2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
184: before installing.
185: 3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
1.187 dholland 186: your build breaks in the middle, don't despair. Make sure headers
1.184 christos 187: are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
188: and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
189: libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
190: the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
191: 4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
1.189 hubertf 192: rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
193: Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
194: that depend on it.
1.186 christos 195: 5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
196: will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
1.190 apb 197: 6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
198: lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
199: for utmp. You are better off removing the old files after
200: upgrading. The automated clearing of /var/run during
201: boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
202: newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
203: files manually.
204: 7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
205: accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
206: removed. The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
207: /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
208: the file.
1.196 dholland 209: 8. Application software that writes time_t to binary files on
210: disk will break or need attention. Most notably: if you are
211: using PostgreSQL < 8.4, you need to dump your databases,
212: rebuild PostgreSQL with the new time_t, then restore.
1.185 jmcneill 213:
1.183 pgoyette 214: 20081219:
215: config(1) has been updated, and one of the files it creates -
216: swapnetbsd.o - has changed format. You need to rebuild config
217: (done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
218: config on all kernel configuration files before rebuilding those
219: kernels.
220:
1.181 cube 221: 20081205:
222: If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and
223: /etc/rc.d/xfs from DESTDIR because those files were moved to the xetc
224: set and will appear as extra files for MKX11=no update builds.
1.178 lukem 225:
1.179 tsutsui 226: 20081122:
1.182 tsutsui 227: On i386, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
1.180 wiz 228: file systems have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
229: Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare the
1.179 tsutsui 230: following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
231:
232: - build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
233:
234: - install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
1.180 wiz 235: for the file system from which the kernel is loaded automatically
1.179 tsutsui 236:
1.180 wiz 237: If you have to load your kernel from a file system which is not of
238: the same type as the root file system, you have to load the necessary
239: file system module manually on the boot prompt or in the boot.cfg file.
1.179 tsutsui 240:
1.178 lukem 241: 20080827:
242: If you built and installed a libc from sources between
243: 2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
244: which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
245: Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
1.180 wiz 246: needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g.:
1.178 lukem 247: $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
248:
1.177 christos 249: 20080813:
250: MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
251: about .go files. You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
252:
1.200 dholland 253: 20080802:
254: A regression in binary compatibility for pthread_mutex_t has
255: been fixed. Unfortunately, the price is breaking compatibility
256: for -current.
257:
258: Threaded programs (using libpthread) and C++ programs (using
259: libstdc++) compiled after 20070907 and before 20080802 need to
260: be recompiled.
261:
262: One way to find affected pkgsrc packages:
263:
264: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libpthread /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
265: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libstdc++ /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
266:
1.175 simonb 267: 20080731:
268: WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
269: time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
270: and userland (fsck_ffs in particular). Please make sure you
271: don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
1.176 simonb 272: especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem. WAPBL
273: also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format. You
274: can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
1.175 simonb 275:
1.174 lukem 276: 20080721:
277: Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
278: isn't defined.
279:
1.173 freza 280: 20080531:
281: The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
282: from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129. The drvctl(8)
283: utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
284: won't work correctly. The following sequence of commands:
285:
286: $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
287: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
288: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
289:
290: leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
291:
1.172 lukem 292: 20080503:
293: The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
294:
1.171 he 295: 20080521:
296: For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
297: succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
298: ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist. A fix for this
299: problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
300: If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
301: remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
302:
1.174 lukem 303: 20080303:
304: Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
305:
1.170 christos 306: 20080126:
307: The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
308: stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub. You need to
309: 'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
310: avoid using the old assembly stub.
311:
1.168 joerg 312: 20071209:
313: The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments. If you
314: get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
1.169 wiz 315: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.168 joerg 316:
1.166 xtraeme 317: 20071115:
318: The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
319: argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
320: anymore. The itesio(4) driver now uses the Super I/O address port
321: rather than the EC address port. Please update your kernel
1.167 wiz 322: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.166 xtraeme 323:
1.165 jmmv 324: 20071028:
325: The pccons(4) driver has been removed from the NetBSD/shark port.
326: You need to update any custom kernel configuration file you have
327: to remove any references to pccons (which includes removing the
328: now useless XSERVER option) and replace them with the correct
329: entries for the wscons driver. See the GENERIC configuration file
330: for more details.
331:
1.164 gdt 332: 20070913:
333: A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
334: enumerate interfaces was fixed. The bug began to cause
335: problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
336: implementation was repaired. From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
337: could not enumerate interfaces. (These are noted because
338: normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
339: sufficient to avoid this problem.) Ensure that both kernel
340: and userland are from after 20070913.
341:
1.163 joerg 342: 20070703:
1.199 dholland 343: nbinstall has been renamed ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}-install. It
344: calls the target-specific strip program, and the logic to pass
345: down STRIP from make has been removed. This requires a
346: re-installation of tools.
1.163 joerg 347:
1.161 dsl 348: 20070422:
349: The way OS emulations lookup filenames inside the emulation root
350: has been changed. Rather than modify the pathname (and copy back
351: to userspace) namei() and lookup() directly check the emulation
352: root. One side effect is that absolute symlinks inside the emulated
1.167 wiz 353: root file system will be relative to that file system - unless they
1.161 dsl 354: start /../ this is useful when the emulated root is a real install
355: that has such links.
356: This might affect symlinks that have been added to reference outside
357: the emulated root.
358:
1.160 jmcneill 359: 20070412:
360: The pckbc driver on sgimips IP32 has been removed. Use macekbc
361: instead. See the GENERIC32_IP3x kernel configuration for an
362: example.
363:
1.159 gdt 364: 20070319:
365: src/lib/libc/Makefile revision 1.129 broke libc and ld.elf_so
366: on many platforms due to incorrect flags settings. If you
367: updated and built after about 20070315, do "nbmake-$arch
368: cleandir" in src/lib/libc and src/libexec/ld.elf_so to force a
369: rebuild of object files that might have been built
370: incorrectly, and ensure that you have at least
371: src/lib/libc/Makefile 1.130.
372:
1.158 dbj 373: 20070210:
374: src/sys/sys/{sa.h,savar.h} were removed.
375: find ${OBJDIR} $ -name .depend -o -name '*.d' $ -print \
376: | xargs egrep -l '/sa.h|/savar.h' | xargs rm
377: will allow dependencies on those files to get get rebuilt
378:
1.157 apb 379: 20070209:
380: The threading model was changed when the newlock2 branch
381: was merged to NetBSD-current. If you boot with a new
382: kernel (version 4.99.10), then you also need a new pthread
383: library (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.7). If you boot with
384: an old kernel, then you need the old pthread library
385: (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.6). Provided you keep the kernel and
386: the pthread library in sync, old threaded applications should
387: continue to work with an old or new kernel. Note that named(8)
388: is the only threaded application in the base system.
389:
1.154 he 390: 20061214:
391: Following the move of string_to_flags() and flags_to_string()
392: from the bin/ls/ sources to libutil, users doing UPDATE builds
393: will need to do a "make cleandir" in
394: tools/mtree/, tools/makefs/, tools/binstall/, tools/pax/,
395: bin/pax/, bin/ls/, usr.sbin/mtree/, usr.sbin/makefs/,
1.156 he 396: usr.bin/xinstall/, libexec/ftpd/, rescue/, as well
397: as the installation images in distrib/
1.154 he 398: in order to excise stale references to the old stat_flags.h header
399: file in the ls sources -- stat_flags.h has been removed.
400:
1.152 christos 401: 20061108:
402: The configure script used in the src/tools/gcc compiler has been
403: changed to indicate that our libc has ssp support built-in and
404: does not depend on -lssp and -lssp-nonshared. You'll need to
405: make clean in src/tools/gcc first to rebuild the compiler.
406:

412: The vt, vidcconsole, kbd, and rpckbd drivers on acorn32 have been
413: withdrawn. Use vidcvideo and pckbd instead. See the GENERIC
414: kernel configuration for an example. X servers from the last
415: few years should cope.

418: MPACPI is no more. We always configure PCI interrupts using ACPI
419: if we have an ACPI kernel. The option MPACPI_SCANPCI has been renamed
420: to ACPI_SCANPCI. Thanks to work from fvdl.

423: socket(2) has changed, and its system call has been versioned.
424: For userlands with the old version of socket(2), make sure that
425: your kernel has 'options COMPAT_30' set, or else 'bad system call'
426: errors will result.

1.1 abs 428: Hints for a more successful build:
429: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.123 jmc 430: Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode":
1.132 jmmv 431: This will automatically build the tools in the
1.123 jmc 432: correct order, and it will keep the tools and the
433: new build products from interfering with the running
434: system. This will allow you to ignore most of the
435: other advice in this file.
1.2 mrg 436: Build a new kernel first:
437: This makes sure that any new system calls or features
438: expected by the new userland will be present. This
439: helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
1.1 abs 440: Use object directories:
441: This helps to keep stale object
442: files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
443: about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after
444: a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the
445: same source tree for multiple machines.
1.123 jmc 446: To use object directories with build.sh:
447: a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options.
448: To use object directories without using build.sh:
1.1 abs 449: a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
1.2 mrg 450: b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
451: c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
1.1 abs 452: d) cd /usr/src ; make build
1.2 mrg 453: Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
454: in obj.$MACHINE directory.
1.1 abs 455: Build to a DESTDIR:
1.123 jmc 456: This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries)
457: from interfering with the new build.
458: To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option.
459: To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR
460: environment variable before running make build. It should be
461: set to the pathname of an initially empty directory.
462: Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to
463: update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since
464: nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR.
465: (See critical utils, below.)
1.1 abs 466: Build often:
467: This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
468: on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
1.123 jmc 469: date functionality. If you use build.sh, you should not have
470: this problem.
1.1 abs 471:
472: What to do if things don't work:
473: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.230 ! tls 474: When things don't work there are usually a few things that commonly
1.1 abs 475: should be done.
476: 1) make includes
477: This should be done automatically by make build.
478: 2) cd share/mk && make install
479: Again, automatically done by make build.
480:
481: Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
482: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
483: To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
484: something like the following:
485: 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
486: 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular
487: utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...)
488: 3) cd ...path/to/util...
489: make cleandir
490: rm ...all obj directories...
491: make cleandir # yes, again
492: make obj
493: make depend && make
494:
495: Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
496: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
497: If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
1.2 mrg 498: ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
499: (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
500: for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
