1.1 cgd 3:
4: This is the README file for the new make "include" files for the BSD
5: source tree. The files are installed in /usr/share/mk, and are, by
1.11 jtc 6: convention, named with the suffix ".mk".
1.1 cgd 7:
8: Note, this file is not intended to replace reading through the .mk
9: files for anything tricky.

12:
13: RANDOM THINGS WORTH KNOWING:
14:
15: The files are simply C-style #include files, and pretty much behave like
16: you'd expect. The syntax is slightly different in that a single '.' is
17: used instead of the hash mark, i.e. ".include <bsd.prog.mk>".
18:
19: One difference that will save you lots of debugging time is that inclusion
20: of the file is normally done at the *end* of the Makefile. The reason for
21: this is because .mk files often modify variables and behavior based on the
22: values of variables set in the Makefile. To make this work, remember that
23: the FIRST target found is the target that is used, i.e. if the Makefile has:
24:
25: a:
26: echo a
27: a:
28: echo a number two
29:
30: the command "make a" will echo "a". To make things confusing, the SECOND
31: variable assignment is the overriding one, i.e. if the Makefile has:
32:
33: a= foo
34: a= bar
35:
36: b:
37: echo ${a}
38:
39: the command "make b" will echo "bar". This is for compatibility with the
40: way the V7 make behaved.
41:
42: It's fairly difficult to make the BSD .mk files work when you're building
43: multiple programs in a single directory. It's a lot easier split up the
44: programs than to deal with the problem. Most of the agony comes from making
45: the "obj" directory stuff work right, not because we switch to a new version
46: of make. So, don't get mad at us, figure out a better way to handle multiple
47: architectures so we can quit using the symbolic link stuff. (Imake doesn't
48: count.)
49:
50: The file .depend in the source directory is expected to contain dependencies
51: for the source files. This file is read automatically by make after reading
52: the Makefile.
53:
54: The variable DESTDIR works as before. It's not set anywhere but will change
55: the tree where the file gets installed.
56:
57: The profiled libraries are no longer built in a different directory than
58: the regular libraries. A new suffix, ".po", is used to denote a profiled
1.21 christos 59: object, and ".so" denotes a shared (position-independent) object.
60:
61: There are two variables that control how things are made/installed that
62: are not set by default:
63:
64: BUILD If set 'make install' checks that the targets in the source
65: directories are up-to-date and remakes them if they
66: are out of date, instead of blindly trying to install
67: out of date or non-existant targets.
68:
69: UPDATE 'make install' only installs targets that are more recently
70: modified in the source directories that their installed
71: counterparts.
1.1 cgd 72:
73: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
74:
75: The include file <sys.mk> has the default rules for all makes, in the BSD
76: environment or otherwise. You probably don't want to touch this file.
77:
78: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
79:
80: The include file <bsd.man.mk> handles installing manual pages and their
81: links.

1.17 thorpej 114: The include file <bsd.own.mk> contains source tree configuration parameters,
115: such as the owners, groups, etc. for both manual pages and binaries, and
116: a few global "feature configuration" parameters.
1.1 cgd 117:
118: It has no targets.
119:
1.29 cjs 120: To get system-specific configuration parameters, bsd.own.mk will try to
121: include the file specified by the "MAKECONF" variable. If MAKECONF is not

226:
227: The include file <bsd.prog.mk> handles building programs from one or
228: more source files, along with their manual pages. It has a limited number
229: of suffixes, consistent with the current needs of the BSD tree.
230:
1.16 jtc 231: It has eight targets:
1.1 cgd 232:
233: all:
234: build the program and its manual page
235: clean:
236: remove the program, any object files and the files a.out,
1.24 mikel 237: Errs, errs, mklog, and ${PROG}.core.
1.1 cgd 238: cleandir:
239: remove all of the files removed by the target clean, as
240: well as .depend, tags, and any manual pages.
241: depend:
242: make the dependencies for the source files, and store
243: them in the file .depend.
1.16 jtc 244: includes:
245: install any header files.
1.1 cgd 246: install:
247: install the program and its manual pages; if the Makefile
248: does not itself define the target install, the targets
249: beforeinstall and afterinstall may also be used to cause
250: actions immediately before and after the install target
251: is executed.
252: lint:
253: run lint on the source files
254: tags:
255: create a tags file for the source files.

262:
263: BINMODE Binary mode.
264:

266:
267: COPTS Additional flags to the compiler when creating C objects.
268:
269: LDADD Additional loader objects. Usually used for libraries.
270: For example, to load with the compatibility and utility
271: libraries, use:
272:

1.1 cgd 274:
275: LDFLAGS Additional loader flags.
276:
277: LINKS The list of binary links; should be full pathnames, the
278: linked-to file coming first, followed by the linked
279: file. The files are hard-linked. For example, to link
280: /bin/test and /bin/[, use:
281:
282: LINKS= ${DESTDIR}/bin/test ${DESTDIR}/bin/[
1.19 perry 283:
284: SYMLINKS The list of symbolic links; should be full pathnames.
1.20 perry 285: Syntax is identical to LINKS. Note that DESTDIR is not
286: automatically included in the link.
1.1 cgd 287:
1.15 cgd 288: MAN Manual pages (should end in .1 - .9). If no MAN variable is
1.8 cgd 289: defined, "MAN=${PROG}.1" is assumed.

298: defined, it's assumed to be ${PROG}.c.
299:
300: DPADD Additional dependencies for the program. Usually used for
301: libraries. For example, to depend on the compatibility and
302: utility libraries use:
303:
1.5 jtc 304: DPADD+=${LIBCOMPAT} ${LIBUTIL}
1.1 cgd 305:
306: The following libraries are predefined for DPADD:

1.16 jtc 389: subdirectories. It has the same eight targets as <bsd.prog.mk>: all,
390: clean, cleandir, depend, includes, install, lint, and tags. For all of
391: the directories listed in the variable SUBDIRS, the specified directory
392: will be visited and the target made. There is also a default target which
393: allows the command "make subdir" where subdir is any directory listed in

1.14 cgd 418: <bsd.lib.mk>. It contains overrides that are used when building
419: the NetBSD source tree. For instance, if "PARALLEL" is defined by
420: the program/library Makefile, it includes a set of rules for lex and
421: yacc that allow multiple lex and yacc targets to be built in parallel.

463: The include file <bsd.port.mk> is used in the FreeBSD ports system.
464: Various common definitions for use in the FreeBSD ports are specified
465: here. The only main changes between the NetBSD version and the
466: original FreeBSD version are that some NetBSD paths have been
1.31 ! hubertf 467: changed (PORTSDIR is now /usr/pkgsrc, rather than the /usr/ports
1.30 agc 468: directory used in FreeBSD, and PREFIX is now /usr/pkg, rather than
469: /usr/local directory used in FreeBSD).

471: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
472:
473: The include file <bsd.port.subdir.mk> is used in the FreeBSD ports
474: system, and controls the sub-directory usage in the system. Once
1.31 ! hubertf 475: again, the only change is the PORTSDIR veriable (now /usr/pkgsrc
1.30 agc 476: rather than the /usr/ports used in FreeBSD).
