1. 50+% of NO_PIE use is fixed by adding -fPIC to INTERNALLIB and other build-only utility libraries. 2. Another 40% is fixed by generating _pic.a variants of various libraries. 3. Some of the NO_PIE use is a bit absurd as it is disabling PIE (and ASLR) where it never would work anyhow, such as csu or loader. This suggests there may be better ways of adding support to the tree. Many of these cases can be fixed such that -fPIE will work but there is really no reason to have it in those cases. 4. Some of the uses are working around hacks done to some Makefiles that are really building libraries but have been using bsd.prog.mk because the code is cleaner. Had they been using bsd.lib.mk then NO_PIE would not have been needed. We likely do want to enable PIE by default (opt-out) for non-tree consumers (such as ports). For in-tree though we probably want to only enable PIE (opt-in) for common attack targets such as remote service daemons and setuid utilities. This is also a great performance compromise since ASLR is expected to reduce performance. As such it does not make sense to enable it in all utilities such as ls(1) that have little benefit to having it enabled. Reported by: kib |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
