Enji Cooper 38f8fddf05 Add limited sandbox capability to "make check"
== Rationale ==

r295380 introduced "make check" and consolidated means for running
test code in an attempt to simplify running tests. One could either
install files/libraries/programs and run "make check", or run "make check"
with an explicit CHECKDIR, e.g., `make check CHECKDIR=$(make -V.OBJDIR)``.

One criticism that was received is that "make check" should be run with
the intent of making dev->test->commit easier, which means that the target
audience's workflow should be developers. One developer pattern available
in other opensource projects is to run test code from a developer sandbox,
instead of installing to a system.

== Method ==

This approach is slightly different from the standard approach, in the sense
that it builds and installs into a deterministic directory under .OBJDIR (as I call it,
the "sandbox"), then runs "make check" against that. In the event the test
run is successful, the deterministic directory is removed to save space.

== Approach ==

bsd.lib.mk, bsd.prog.mk:

To support this functionality, a new variable `HAS_TESTS` is being added.

HAS_TESTS enables appropriate behavior with bsd.lib.mk and bsd.prog.mk, as
follows:
- Add "make check" as an available target from the directory.
- Pass down appropriate variables via ${TESTS_ENV}, i.e.,
  ${TESTS_LD_LIBRARY_PATH} and ${TESTS_PATH}.

One should add "HAS_TESTS" to directories containing tests in them, e.g. from
bin/sh/Makefile,

  HAS_TESTS=
  SUBDIR.${MK_TESTS}+= tests

HAS_TESTS doesn't automatically add the tests subdirectory for flexibility
reasons.

bsd.opts.mk, src.opts.mk:
- The knob ${MK_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX} has been added, both to explicitly
  direct (internally) when to set a deterministic ${DESTDIR} and to also allow
  users to disable this behavior globally, i.e., via src.conf.
- MK_TESTS has been promoted from src.opts.mk to bsd.opts.mk to leverage
  syntactic sugar for having MK_TESTS be a dependency for
  MK_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX, but to also ensure that src.opts.mk isn't required
  to use suite.test.mk (which is a dependency of bsd.test.mk).

suite.test.mk:
- beforecheck behavior (when MK_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX is enabled) is modified
  from a no-op to:
-- Build.
-- Run "make hierarchy" on the sandbox dir.
-- Install the tests/files to the sandbox dir.
- aftercheck behavior (when MK_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX is enabled) is modified
  from a no-op to:
-- Remove the sandbox dir.

Again, because the dependency order set in bsd.test.mk is
beforecheck -> check -> aftercheck, "make check" will not be run unless
"beforecheck" completes successfully, and "aftercheck" will not be run unless
"beforecheck" and "check" complete successfully.

== Caveats ==

- This target must either be run with MK_INSTALL_AS_USER or as root. Otherwise
  it will fail when running "make install" as the default user/group for many
  makefiles when calling INSTALL is root/wheel.
- This target must be run from a suitable top-level directory. For example,
  running tests from `tests/sys/fs/tmpfs` won't work, but `tests/sys/fs` will,
  because `tests/sys/fs/tmpfs` relies on files installed by `tests/sys/fs`.
- Running MK_INSTALL_AS_USER may introduce determinism issues. However, using
  it could identify deficiences in tests in terms of needing to be run as
  root, which are not properly articulated in the test requirements.
- The doesn't negate the need for running "make installworld" and
  "make checkworld", etc. Again, this just is intended to simplify the
  dev->test->commit workflow.

== Cleanup done ==
- CHECKDIR is removed; one can use "MK_MAKE_CHECK_USE_SANDBOX=no" to enable
  "legacy" (r295380) behavior.

Makefile

# $FreeBSD$
#
# Option file for src builds.
#
# Users define WITH_FOO and WITHOUT_FOO on the command line or in /etc/src.conf
# and /etc/make.conf files. These translate in the build system to MK_FOO={yes,no}
# with (usually) sensible defaults.
#
# Makefiles must include bsd.opts.mk after defining specific MK_FOO options that
# are applicable for that Makefile (typically there are none, but sometimes there
# are exceptions). Recursive makes usually add MK_FOO=no for options that they wish
# to omit from that make.
#
# Makefiles must include bsd.mkopt.mk before they test the value of any MK_FOO
# variable.
#
# Makefiles may also assume that this file is included by bsd.own.mk should it
# need variables defined there prior to the end of the Makefile where
# bsd.{subdir,lib.bin}.mk is traditionally included.
#
# The old-style YES_FOO and NO_FOO are being phased out. No new instances of them
# should be added. Old instances should be removed since they were just to
# bridge the gap between FreeBSD 4 and FreeBSD 5.
#
# Makefiles should never test WITH_FOO or WITHOUT_FOO directly (although an
# exception is made for _WITHOUT_SRCONF which turns off this mechanism
# completely).
#

# Define MK_* variables (which are either "yes" or "no") for users

# These should be tested with `== "no"' or `!= "no"' in makefiles.
# The NO_* variables should only be set by makefiles for variables
# that haven't been converted over.
#
# Only these options are used by bsd.*.mk. KERBEROS and OPENSSH are
# unfortunately needed to support statically linking the entire
# tree. su(1) wouldn't link since it depends on PAM which depends on

# All other variables used to build /usr/src live in src.opts.mk
# and variables from both files are documented in src.conf(5).
