wrong share/mk files to be used, which can be fatal with upgrades or downgrades, e.g., when building RELENG_5 on HEAD. Reported by: glebius For now, just exclude -P from MAKEFLAGS when running crunchgen(1). (Note that it will still break when run with certain -d options.) The real solution is to fix make(1) to not print stuff on stdout when it's not supposed to, e.g., through the -P and -dX options, and to fix crunchgen(1) to not redirect stderr to stdout when running make(1). Once this is implemented, this hack can go. |

The /rescue build system here has three goals: 1) Produce a reliable standalone set of /rescue tools. The contents of /rescue are all statically linked and do not depend on anything in /bin or /sbin. In particular, they'll continue to function even if you've hosed your dynamic /bin and /sbin. For example, note that /rescue/mount runs /rescue/mount_nfs and not /sbin/mount_nfs. This is more subtle than it looks. As an added bonus, /rescue is fairly small (thanks to crunchgen) and includes a number of tools (such as gzip, bzip2, vi) that are not normally found in /bin and /sbin. 2) Demonstrate robust use of crunchgen. These Makefiles recompile each of the crunchgen components and include support for overriding specific library entries. Such techniques should be useful elsewhere. For example, boot floppies could use this to conditionally compile out features to reduce executable size. 3) Produce a toolkit suitable for small distributions. Install /rescue on a CD or CompactFlash disk, and symlink /bin and /sbin to /rescue to produce a small and fairly complete FreeBSD system. These tools have one big disadvantage: being statically linked, they cannot use some advanced library functions that rely on dynamic linking. In particular, nsswitch, locales, and pam are likely to all rely on dynamic linking in the near future. To compile: # cd /usr/src/rescue # make obj # make # make install Note that rebuilds don't always work correctly; if you run into trouble, try 'make clean' before recompiling. $FreeBSD$
