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.

17: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.230 tls 18:
1.237 ! wiz 19: 20120507:
! 20: The database schema for makemandb was changed. You will
! 21: need to update the database using 'makemandb -f' or wait
! 22: for the next weekly run to fix it.
! 23:
1.236 bsh 24: 20120319:
25: sys/conf/Makefile.kern.inc has been modified to adjust the
26: size of db_symtab automatically. You need to update dbsym in
27: your $TOOLDIR to build kernels with options SYMTAB_SPACE. If
28: you don't want this behavior, add AUTO_SYMTAB_SPACE=no to your
29: mk.conf.
30:
1.235 joerg 31: 20120216:
1.234 spz 32: Default for MKCATPAGES changed to NO. Update builds will fail
1.235 joerg 33: unless DESTDIR is cleaned manually. If you built between 20120207
34: and 20120216, daily and weekly could have created an unreable
35: /var/db/man.db index for apropos. Running makemandb -f or
36: the next run of weekly will fix it.
1.233 joerg 37:
1.232 christos 38: 20111227:
39: If you built between 20111225 and 20111227 you need to remove
40: /usr/lib/libpam.so.4* and /usr/lib/security/*.so.4, since the
41: bump has been reverted.
42:
1.231 tls 43: 20111125:
44: The "rnd" pseudodevice has been added to sys/conf/std, which
45: means it should no longer be explicitly listed in kernel
46: configuration files. The line "pseudo-device rnd" should be
47: removed from any custom kernel config files users may have.
48:
1.230 tls 49: 20111119:
50: A problem with the datastructures used by the rndctl(8)
51: utility (pointers in datastructures in an array, making 32->64
52: bit compatibility very painful) has been fixed in a
53: non-backwards-compatible way. If you replace your kernel,
54: replace your rndctl executable too.
55:
1.229 jym 56: 20111001:
57: the prop_*_send_syscall() functions from proplib(3) have been
58: changed and their new version is not backward compatible with the old
59: one. So ensure that all consumers of these functions (currently:
60: quota2 code and its tests) are updated together with the new lib.
61:
1.228 mrg 62: 20110817:
63: sparc has been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any objdir or
64: DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
65:
1.227 riastrad 66: 20110806:
67: i386 and amd64 have been changed to use GCC 4.5.3, so any
68: objdir or DESTDIR for them should be deleted before updating.
69:
1.226 mrg 70: 20110805:
71: The update to GCC 4.5.3 requires a non-trivial portion of
72: the tree to be cleaned. Best to delete both objdir and
73: DESTDIR before running this update. So far, only the
74: sparc64, mips and powerpc platforms have changed.
75:
1.225 matt 76: 20110803:
77: The layout of external/public-domain/xz has changed. To do an
78: update build you will have to remove the contents of the OBJDIR
79: for external/public-domain/xz/bin by hand as the xz entry there
80: is now a directory.
81:
1.223 joerg 82: 20110410:
1.224 dholland 83: The configuration of src/tools/gcc has changed. To do an
84: update build you have to clean both tools/binutils and
85: tools/gcc by hand.
1.223 joerg 86:
1.222 plunky 87: 20110328:
88: Building the Xorg binary was moved into a subdirectory to fix
89: ordering issues with "make all". It may be necessary to remove
90: the OBJDIR for external/mit/xorg/server/xorg-server/hw/xfree86
91: if your update build fails, as the "Xorg" entry there is now a
92: directory.
93:
1.220 joerg 94: 20110121:
1.221 lukem 95: Assembler files no longer use -traditional-cpp. This can break
1.220 joerg 96: the build of individual parts of the tree. This is handled
97: correctly by build.sh. Manual builds have to update /usr/share/mk
98: and re-run config(1) for any kernel configurations as needed.
1.218 joerg 99:
1.217 jruoho 100: 20101217:
101: The tcpdump(8) program was changed to drop privileges and chroot(2)
102: by default. It may be necessary to manually update passwd(5) and
103: group(5) in order to make the program work with existing setups.
104:
1.216 christos 105: 20101125:
106: The latest changes to setenv(3) dissallow setting environment
107: variables with names that contain '='. Revision 1.18 of env.c
108: assumed that this was allowed. Installing a new libc with an
109: old copy of /usr/bin/env causes env x=1 printenv | grep x= to
110: break which affects the autoconf tests for dependency finding,
111: so building gcc will end up printing:
112: checking dependency style of gcc... none
113: configure: error: no usable dependency style found
114: Fix it by rebuilding and re-installing env.
1.138 lukem 115:
1.215 mrg 116: 20101119:
117: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ may cause various build
118: or run-time problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you
119: have any build problems with xsrc, or problems with mismatched
120: versions between xorg-server and drivers.
121:
1.213 jmmv 122: 20100604:
123: The update of ATF to 0.9 causes old tests written in shell to fail
124: unless they are rebuilt. If you are building with MKUPDATE=yes,
125: you need to clean the src/external/bsd/atf/tests/ and the src/tests/
126: trees by hand.
127:
1.211 tnozaki 128: 20100522:
1.212 mrg 129: Recent Xorg updates in xsrc/external/mit/ will cause various build
130: problems. Delete your entire DESTDIR and OBJDIR if you have any
131: build problems with xsrc.
132:
133: 20100522:
1.211 tnozaki 134: private section of <ctype.h> was splitted, and now mklocale(1)
1.214 dholland 135: include ctype_local.h, so you have to make cleandir in tools/mklocale.
1.211 tnozaki 136:
1.210 christos 137: 20100520:
138: The location of the xkb compiled descriptions has changed. Please
139: remove usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled from your $DESTDIR.
140:
1.209 njoly 141: 20100222:
142: The shared objects file extension has been changed from .so to
143: .pico, in order to avoid conflicts with shared libraries names
144: libXX.so. All now stale regular .so files can be removed from
145: your object directories.
146:
1.208 roy 147: 20100204:
148: The termcap database has been removed from the sources,
149: but has not been marked obsolete so it is not removed
150: from the system when upgrading.
151: As such, you will need to remove them from your object
152: and destination directories.
153:
1.203 dyoung 154: 20091101:
1.205 dholland 155: After updating, it may be necessary to make the 'cleandir'
156: target in src/tools/yacc/ and in src/usr.bin/yacc/ before a
157: 'build.sh -u tools' or 'build.sh -u distribution'. Ditto
158: src/tools/lex/ and src/usr.bin/lex/.
1.203 dyoung 159:
1.202 mrg 160: 20091001:
1.206 dholland 161: On amd64 you must rebuild tools (to get the new binutils)
162: before building a kernel, or the build fails on cpufunc.S.
163:
164: 20091001:
1.202 mrg 165: An error will create a ./usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/compiled/xkb
166: symlink, failing the build. Delete the link, and the subdir
167: it is in, and retry your build.
168:
1.201 dsl 169: 20090718:
170: libc build changed so that strchr() provides the extra entry
171: point for index(). Update build of libc.a (and libc_pic.a)
172: may fail because the archive contains the unwanted index.o.
173: (Similarly for strrchr() and rindex().)
174:
1.198 mrg 175: 20090709:
176: Native Xorg was upgraded again. Builds will probably fail again
177: without a clean objdir, at least for src/external/mit/xorg.
178:
1.197 mrg 179: 20090616:
180: Native Xorg was upgraded. Builds will need a clean objdir for
181: src/external/mit/xorg. Upgrading a system from sets will not
182: work properly yet as the /usr/X11R7/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/pc
183: subdirectory has been changed into a file, and this needs to
184: be manually "rm -r"'ed before installing xbase.tgz.
185:
1.195 perry 186: 20090501:
187: Several new functions were added to string.h/libc, and this
188: can cause autoconf problems during the tool build for people
189: who fail to clean out their tools objects properly. If you
190: note messages about stpcpy, stpncpy or strnlen accompanying a
191: failure during the tool build, clean out all your tools
192: objects and start again.
193:
1.194 mrg 194: 20090325:
195: The i386 port was switched to i486 default toolchain. This requires
196: cleaning your src/tools directory and $TOOLDIR and rebuilding them.
197:
1.192 skrll 198: 20090126:
1.207 mbalmer 199: The __posix_fadvise50 system call changed assembly stub type. You
200: need to 'rm -f __posix_fadvise50.*' in the libc build directory
201: to avoid using the old assembly stub.
1.192 skrll 202:
1.191 joerg 203: 20090202:
204: pkg_install now depends on the pkgdb cache for automatic conflict
205: detection. It is recommented to rebuild the cache with
206: ``pkg_admin rebuild''.
207:
1.184 christos 208: 20090110:
209: time_t and dev_t have been bumped to 64 bit quantities. To upgrade:
210: 1. Make sure your kernel has COMPAT_50 in it. Build and install.
1.188 christos 211: This is needed even in the MODULAR kernel because there is
212: conditionally compiled code in rtsock.c.
1.184 christos 213: 2. make sure build.sh completes and the binaries in a chroot work
214: before installing.
215: 3. If you don't use build.sh and you build directly to root, and
1.187 dholland 216: your build breaks in the middle, don't despair. Make sure headers
1.184 christos 217: are installed properly, and start building libraries first libc
218: and libutil, install them and then continue building all the
219: libraries in src/lib and src/gnu/lib and install them. Once
220: the new libraries are installed, you can restart the build.
221: 4. If you compile packages and you notice link time warnings,
1.189 hubertf 222: rebuild the required packages to update their shared libraries.
223: Any package you rebuild will require rebuilding all the packages
224: that depend on it.
1.186 christos 225: 5. Next time you run pwd_mkdb with the new binary, the file
226: will be upgraded and it will not be backwards compatible.
1.190 apb 227: 6. The utmpx/wtmpx files (/var/run/utmpx and /var/log/wtmpx, see
228: lastlogx(5)) have been versioned, and there is a heuristic
229: for utmp. You are better off removing the old files after
230: upgrading. The automated clearing of /var/run during
231: boot, and the automated rotating of files in /var/log by
232: newsyslog(8), may mean that you do not have to remove the
233: files manually.
234: 7. The optional accounting file (/var/account/acct, see
235: accton(8)) has not been versioned, and will need to be
236: removed. The automatic rotation of the accounting file by
237: /etc/daily limits the bad consequences of failure to remove
238: the file.
1.196 dholland 239: 8. Application software that writes time_t to binary files on
240: disk will break or need attention. Most notably: if you are
241: using PostgreSQL < 8.4, you need to dump your databases,
242: rebuild PostgreSQL with the new time_t, then restore.
1.185 jmcneill 243:
1.183 pgoyette 244: 20081219:
245: config(1) has been updated, and one of the files it creates -
246: swapnetbsd.o - has changed format. You need to rebuild config
247: (done automatically by build.sh) and then you need to rerun
248: config on all kernel configuration files before rebuilding those
249: kernels.
250:
1.181 cube 251: 20081205:
252: If you build with MKX11=no, you should remove /etc/rc.d/xdm and
253: /etc/rc.d/xfs from DESTDIR because those files were moved to the xetc
254: set and will appear as extra files for MKX11=no update builds.
1.178 lukem 255:
1.179 tsutsui 256: 20081122:
1.182 tsutsui 257: On i386, various kernel options(4) in GENERIC including
1.180 wiz 258: file systems have been disabled and moved into kernel modules.
259: Before trying a new GENERIC kernel, you have to prepare the
1.179 tsutsui 260: following files as well as a new GENERIC kernel:
261:
262: - build and install kernel modules from src/sys/modules
263:
264: - install the latest bootloader, which will load a module
1.180 wiz 265: for the file system from which the kernel is loaded automatically
1.179 tsutsui 266:
1.180 wiz 267: If you have to load your kernel from a file system which is not of
268: the same type as the root file system, you have to load the necessary
269: file system module manually on the boot prompt or in the boot.cfg file.
1.179 tsutsui 270:
1.178 lukem 271: 20080827:
272: If you built and installed a libc from sources between
273: 2008/08/20 and 2008/08/26 you got a broken strtouq(3)
274: which results in false errors reported by lint(1).
275: Since this breaks the libc build itself, manual help is
1.180 wiz 276: needed -- lint must be disabled temporarily, e.g.:
1.178 lukem 277: $ (cd lib/libc && make MKLINT=no dependall install)
278:
1.177 christos 279: 20080813:
280: MKDEBUG build was broken because the .depend files did not know
281: about .go files. You need to remove all .depend files and rebuild.
282:
1.200 dholland 283: 20080802:
284: A regression in binary compatibility for pthread_mutex_t has
285: been fixed. Unfortunately, the price is breaking compatibility
286: for -current.
287:
288: Threaded programs (using libpthread) and C++ programs (using
289: libstdc++) compiled after 20070907 and before 20080802 need to
290: be recompiled.
291:
292: One way to find affected pkgsrc packages:
293:
294: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libpthread /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
295: $ grep REQUIRES=/usr/lib/libstdc++ /var/db/pkg/*/+BUILD_INFO
296:
1.175 simonb 297: 20080731:
298: WAPBL (metadata journaling support) has been added, but at this
299: time isn't backwards compatible with pre-WAPBL aware kernels
300: and userland (fsck_ffs in particular). Please make sure you
301: don't use a journaled filesystem with an older kernel/userland,
1.176 simonb 302: especially an uncleanly mounted journaled filesystem. WAPBL
303: also requires the super block to be in the UFS2 format. You
304: can use fsck_ffs -c 4 to update the superblock format.
1.175 simonb 305:
1.174 lukem 306: 20080721:
307: Assembler warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0 and $NOGCCERROR
308: isn't defined.
309:
1.173 freza 310: 20080531:
311: The ioctl number of DRVSUSPENDDEV command on /dev/drvctl changed
312: from 125 (conflicted with DRVCTLCOMMAND) to 129. The drvctl(8)
313: utility needs to be rebuilt and reinstalled as older binaries
314: won't work correctly. The following sequence of commands:
315:
316: $ (cd sys/sys/ && nbmake-$arch includes)
317: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch clean)
318: $ (cd sbin/drvctl/ && nbmake-$arch all)
319:
320: leaves new drvctl utility in sbin/drvctl build directory.
321:
1.172 lukem 322: 20080503:
323: The <bsd.lib.mk> variable MKPRIVATELIB was renamed to LIBISPRIVATE.
324:
1.171 he 325: 20080521:
326: For a while, unprivileged UPDATE builds would fail to
327: succeed at the checkflist stage, complaining that
328: ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>/ did not exist. A fix for this
329: problem was committed to share/mk/bsd.kmodule.mk, revision 1.9.
330: If you already hit this problem, update the .mk file,
331: remove ${DESTDIR}/stand/<arch>, and re-run the build.
332:
1.174 lukem 333: 20080303:
334: Linker warnings are now fatal if $WARNS>0.
335:
1.170 christos 336: 20080126:
337: The posix_fadvise system call has been changed from an assembly
338: stub, to a c file that calls an assembly stub. You need to
339: 'rm -f posix_fadvise.* .depend' in the libc build directory to
340: avoid using the old assembly stub.
341:
1.168 joerg 342: 20071209:
343: The acpiec(4) driver has been split into two attachments. If you
344: get ACPI errors before the attachment, please update your kernel
1.169 wiz 345: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.168 joerg 346:
1.166 xtraeme 347: 20071115:
348: The it(4) driver has been renamed to itesio(4) and the old port
349: argument specified in the kernel configuration file is not valid
350: anymore. The itesio(4) driver now uses the Super I/O address port
351: rather than the EC address port. Please update your kernel
1.167 wiz 352: configuration file appropriately or see GENERIC for more details.
1.166 xtraeme 353:
1.165 jmmv 354: 20071028:
355: The pccons(4) driver has been removed from the NetBSD/shark port.
356: You need to update any custom kernel configuration file you have
357: to remove any references to pccons (which includes removing the
358: now useless XSERVER option) and replace them with the correct
359: entries for the wscons driver. See the GENERIC configuration file
360: for more details.
361:
1.164 gdt 362: 20070913:
363: A latent bug in dhclient/dhcpd that caused it to be unable to
364: enumerate interfaces was fixed. The bug began to cause
365: problems after 20070911 when the kernel's SIOCGIFCONF
366: implementation was repaired. From 20070529 to 20070911 racoon
367: could not enumerate interfaces. (These are noted because
368: normal kernel/userspace version matching hygiene is not
369: sufficient to avoid this problem.) Ensure that both kernel
370: and userland are from after 20070913.
371:
1.163 joerg 372: 20070703:
1.199 dholland 373: nbinstall has been renamed ${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}-install. It
374: calls the target-specific strip program, and the logic to pass
375: down STRIP from make has been removed. This requires a
376: re-installation of tools.
1.163 joerg 377:
1.161 dsl 378: 20070422:
379: The way OS emulations lookup filenames inside the emulation root
380: has been changed. Rather than modify the pathname (and copy back
381: to userspace) namei() and lookup() directly check the emulation
382: root. One side effect is that absolute symlinks inside the emulated
1.167 wiz 383: root file system will be relative to that file system - unless they
1.161 dsl 384: start /../ this is useful when the emulated root is a real install
385: that has such links.
386: This might affect symlinks that have been added to reference outside
387: the emulated root.
388:
1.160 jmcneill 389: 20070412:
390: The pckbc driver on sgimips IP32 has been removed. Use macekbc
391: instead. See the GENERIC32_IP3x kernel configuration for an
392: example.
393:
1.159 gdt 394: 20070319:
395: src/lib/libc/Makefile revision 1.129 broke libc and ld.elf_so
396: on many platforms due to incorrect flags settings. If you
397: updated and built after about 20070315, do "nbmake-$arch
398: cleandir" in src/lib/libc and src/libexec/ld.elf_so to force a
399: rebuild of object files that might have been built
400: incorrectly, and ensure that you have at least
401: src/lib/libc/Makefile 1.130.
402:
1.158 dbj 403: 20070210:
404: src/sys/sys/{sa.h,savar.h} were removed.
405: find ${OBJDIR} \( -name .depend -o -name '*.d' \) -print \
406: | xargs egrep -l '/sa.h|/savar.h' | xargs rm
407: will allow dependencies on those files to get get rebuilt
408:
1.157 apb 409: 20070209:
410: The threading model was changed when the newlock2 branch
411: was merged to NetBSD-current. If you boot with a new
412: kernel (version 4.99.10), then you also need a new pthread
413: library (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.7). If you boot with
414: an old kernel, then you need the old pthread library
415: (/usr/lib/libpthread.so.0.6). Provided you keep the kernel and
416: the pthread library in sync, old threaded applications should
417: continue to work with an old or new kernel. Note that named(8)
418: is the only threaded application in the base system.

421: Following the move of string_to_flags() and flags_to_string()
422: from the bin/ls/ sources to libutil, users doing UPDATE builds
423: will need to do a "make cleandir" in
424: tools/mtree/, tools/makefs/, tools/binstall/, tools/pax/,
425: bin/pax/, bin/ls/, usr.sbin/mtree/, usr.sbin/makefs/,
1.156 he 426: usr.bin/xinstall/, libexec/ftpd/, rescue/, as well
427: as the installation images in distrib/
1.154 he 428: in order to excise stale references to the old stat_flags.h header
429: file in the ls sources -- stat_flags.h has been removed.

1.152 christos 431: 20061108:
432: The configure script used in the src/tools/gcc compiler has been
433: changed to indicate that our libc has ssp support built-in and
434: does not depend on -lssp and -lssp-nonshared. You'll need to
435: make clean in src/tools/gcc first to rebuild the compiler.

439: available. Use net.inet{,6}.tcp{,6}.congctl.selected instead.

1.150 bjh21 441: 20060814:
442: The vt, vidcconsole, kbd, and rpckbd drivers on acorn32 have been
443: withdrawn. Use vidcvideo and pckbd instead. See the GENERIC
444: kernel configuration for an example. X servers from the last
445: few years should cope.

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

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

1.1 abs 458: Hints for a more successful build:
459: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.123 jmc 460: Use build.sh, but do not use its "expert mode":
1.132 jmmv 461: This will automatically build the tools in the
1.123 jmc 462: correct order, and it will keep the tools and the
463: new build products from interfering with the running
464: system. This will allow you to ignore most of the
465: other advice in this file.
1.2 mrg 466: Build a new kernel first:
467: This makes sure that any new system calls or features
468: expected by the new userland will be present. This
469: helps to avoid critical errors when upgrading.
1.1 abs 470: Use object directories:
471: This helps to keep stale object
472: files from polluting the build if a Makefile "forgets"
473: about one. It also makes it easier to clean up after
474: a build. It's also necessary if you want to use the
475: same source tree for multiple machines.
1.123 jmc 476: To use object directories with build.sh:
477: a) invoke build.sh with the "-M" or "-O" options.
478: To use object directories without using build.sh:
1.1 abs 479: a) cd /usr/src ; make cleandir
1.2 mrg 480: b) Add "OBJMACHINE=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
481: c) Add "MKOBJDIRS=yes" to /etc/mk.conf
1.1 abs 482: d) cd /usr/src ; make build
1.2 mrg 483: Note that running "make obj" in a directory will create
484: in obj.$MACHINE directory.
1.1 abs 485: Build to a DESTDIR:
1.123 jmc 486: This helps to keep old installed files (especially libraries)
487: from interfering with the new build.
488: To build to a DESTDIR with build.sh, use the "-D" option.
489: To build to a DESTDIR without using build.sh, set the DESTDIR
490: environment variable before running make build. It should be
491: set to the pathname of an initially empty directory.
492: Problems: if you do not use build.sh, you might need to
493: update critical utilities without using DESTDIR since
494: nothing is executed from what is installed in DESTDIR.
495: (See critical utils, below.)
1.1 abs 496: Build often:
497: This keeps critical utilities current enough to not choke
498: on any other part of the source tree that depends on up to
1.123 jmc 499: date functionality. If you use build.sh, you should not have
500: this problem.
1.1 abs 501:
502: What to do if things don't work:
503: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
1.230 tls 504: When things don't work there are usually a few things that commonly
1.1 abs 505: should be done.
506: 1) make includes
507: This should be done automatically by make build.
508: 2) cd share/mk && make install
509: Again, automatically done by make build.
510:
511: Failsafe rebuild of a small part of the tree:
512: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
513: To make sure you rebuild something correctly you want to do
514: something like the following:
515: 1) Make sure the includes and .mk files are up to date.
516: 2) Make sure any program used to build the particular
517: utility is up to date. (yacc, lex, etc...)
518: 3) cd ...path/to/util...
519: make cleandir
520: rm ...all obj directories...
521: make cleandir # yes, again
522: make obj
523: make depend && make
524:
525: Failsafe rebuild of the entire tree:
526: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
527: If you really want to make sure the source tree is clean and
1.2 mrg 528: ready for a build try the following. Note that sourcing /etc/mk.conf
529: (a make(1) Makefile) in this manner is not right, and will not work
530: for anyone who uses any make(1) features in /etc/mk.conf.
