| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit, fix a core dump on ypldap(8) related with memory allocation. Also an example of how to set the ypldap.conf(5) properly is added to examples files. A new user _ypldap is required to be able to run ypldap(8) as well as in a chroot mode.

* pxeboot: make the tftp loader use the option root-path directivebapt2015-12-161-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | pxeboot in tftp loader mode (when built with LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT) now prefix all the path to open with the path obtained via the option 'root-path' directive. This allows to be able to use the traditional content /boot out of box. Meaning it now works pretty much like all other loaders. It simplifies hosting hosting multiple version of FreeBSD on a tftp server. As a consequence, pxeboot does not look anymore for a pxeboot.4th (which was never provided) Note: that pxeboot in tftp loader mode is not built by default.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Debug data files are now built by default with 'make buildworld' and installed with 'make installworld'. This facilitates debugging but requires more disk space both during the build and for the installed world. Debug files may be disabled by setting WITHOUT_DEBUG_FILES=yes in src.conf(5).

* Fix errors being ignored in many phases of the build since the bmake ↵bdrewery2015-12-011-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | integration. Say it with me, "I will not chain commands with && in Makefiles" This was originally fixed and explained quite well by bde@ in r36074. The initial bmake integration caused 'set -e' to stop being used which lead to r252419. Later 'set -e' expectations were fixed with bmake in r254980. Because of the && here, errors would be ignored when building in parallel and a dependency failed. Such as bootstrap-tools since it builds everything in parallel. If any tool failed in obj/depend/all, it would just ignore the error and continue to build. This later would result in cascaded errors that only confused the real issue. This could also cause commands after the failed command to still execute, leading to more confusion. This should be fine if the command is in a sub-shell such as: (cmd1 && cmd2) This reverts r252419.

* Rework the 'make -n -n' feature such that '-n' recurses and '-N' does not.bdrewery2015-10-171-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bmake has a documented feature of '-N' to skip executing commands which is specifically intended for debugging top-level builds and not recursing into sub-directories. This matches the older 'make -n' behavior we added which made '-n -n' the recursing target and '-n' a non-recursing target. Removing the '-n -n' feature allows the build to work as documented in the bmake manpage with '-n' and '-N'. The older '-n -n' feature was also not documented anywhere that I could see. Note that the ${_+_} var is still needed as currently bmake incorrectly executes '+' commands when '-N' is specified. The '-n' and '-n -n' features were broken for several reasons prior to this. r251748 made '_+_' never expand with '-n -n' which resulted in many sub-directories not being visited until fixed 2 years later in r288391, and many targets were given .MAKE over the past few years which resulted in non-sub-make commands, such as rm and ln and mtree, to be executed. This should also allow removing some indirection hacks in bsd.subdir.mk and other cases of .USE that have a .MAKE by using '+'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids needing a large boot partition / file system in order to accommodate multiple kernels, and provides consistency with userland debug. This also simplifies the process of moving kernel debug files to a separate package and installing them on demand. In addition, change kernel debug file extension to .debug, to match userland debug files. When using the supported kernel installation method the /usr/lib/debug/boot/kernel directory will be renamed (to kernel.old) as is done with /boot/kernel. Developers wishing to maintain the historical behavior of installing debug files in /boot/kernel/ can set KERN_DEBUGDIR="" in src.conf(5).

With RANDOM_DUMMY there will be a random(4) that always blocks. - Repair kern.arandom (KERN_ARND sysctl). The old version went through arc4random(9) and was a bit weird. - Adjust arc4random stirring a bit - the existing code looks a little suspect. - Fix the nasty pre- and post-read overloading by providing explictit functions to do these tasks. - Redo read_random(9) so as to duplicate random(4)'s read internals. This makes it a first-class citizen rather than a hack. - Move stuff out of locked regions when it does not need to be there. - Trim RANDOM_DEBUG printfs. Some are excess to requirement, some behind boot verbose. - Use SYSINIT to sequence the startup. - Fix init/deinit sysctl stuff. - Make relevant sysctls also tunables. - Add different harvesting "styles" to allow for different requirements (direct, queue, fast). - Add harvesting of FFS atime events. This needs to be checked for weighing down the FS code. - Add harvesting of slab allocator events. This needs to be checked for weighing down the allocator code. - Fix the random(9) manpage. - Loadable modules are not present for now.
