Now that OBJS has grown an OBJS_SRCS_FILTER variable, use this variable
in the computation of BCOBJS and LLOBJS too. Also move BCOBJS and LLOBJS
computation to be next to the OBJS computation: this should both make
the parallel structure clearer and serve to remind people changing OBJS
that parallel changes are required in BCOBJS and LLOBJS.
A side effect of this change is that BCOBJS and LLOBJS will be available
even when LLVM_LINK has not been defined, but that seems like a positive
change: there's no reason we can't ask "what bitcode files would you
generate" just because we can't link those files together into a
complete bitcode representation of a binary or library.

Some makefiles do reachover builds.
In some cases it is convenient to list subdirs of the distribution
in SRCS.
It is not very convenient, or always even desirable to have corresponding
subdirs in .OBJDIR, so OBJS_SRCS_FILTER allows the makefile to choose.
The default value 'R' matches existing practice.
But a makefile can set OBJS_SRCS_FILTER= T (the R gets added by
bsd.init.mk) to avoid the need for subdirs in .OBJDIR

== 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.

This will be reverted if bmake's behavior changes to rebuild on missing .meta

Rather than depend on .depend not existing, check the actual
.depend.OBJ file that will be used for that object. If it doesn't
exist then use the guessed dependencies.
FAST_DEPEND may never have a .depend file. Not having one means all of the
previous logic would over-depend all object files on all headers which is not
what we wanted. It also means that if a .depend is generated before a build
is done for _EXTRADEPEND (such as for PROG or LIB) then all of these
dependencies would not be used since the .depend wasn't generated from mkdep
and the real .depend.* files are not generated until the build.

ccache is mostly beneficial for frequent builds where -DNO_CLEAN is not
used to achieve a safe pseudo-incremental build. This is explained in
more detail upstream [1] [2]. It incurs about a 20%-28% hit to populate the
cache, but with a full cache saves 30-50% in build times. When combined with
the WITH_FAST_DEPEND feature it saves up to 65% since ccache does cache the
resulting dependency file, which it does not do when using mkdep(1)/'CC
-E'. Stats are provided at the end of this message.
This removes the need to modify /etc/make.conf with the CC:= and CXX:=
lines which conflicted with external compiler support [3] (causing the
bootstrap compiler to not be built which lead to obscure failures [4]),
incorrectly invoked ccache in various stages, required CCACHE_CPP2 to avoid
Clang errors with parenthesis, and did not work with META_MODE.
The option name was picked to match the existing option in ports. This
feature is available for both in-src and out-of-src builds that use
/usr/share/mk.
Linking, assembly compiles, and pre-processing avoid using ccache since it is
only overhead. ccache does nothing special in these modes, although there is
no harm in calling it for them.
CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK is set to 'content' when using the in-tree bootstrap
compiler to hash the content of the compiler binary to determine if it
should be a cache miss. For external compilers the 'mtime' option is used
as it is more efficient and likely to be correct. Future work may optimize the
'content' check using the same checks as whether a bootstrap compiler is needed
to be built.
The CCACHE_CPP2 pessimization is currently default in our devel/ccache
port due to Clang requiring it. Clang's -Wparentheses-equality,
-Wtautological-compare, and -Wself-assign warnings do not mix well with
compiling already-pre-processed code that may have expanded macros that
trigger the warnings. GCC has so far not had this issue so it is allowed to
disable the CCACHE_CPP2 default in our port.
Sharing a cache between multiple checkouts, or systems, is explained in
the ccache manual. Sharing a cache over NFS would likely not be worth
it, but syncing cache directories between systems may be useful for an
organization. There is also a memcached backend available [5]. Due to using
an object directory outside of the source directory though you will need to
ensure that both are in the same prefix and all users use the same layout. A
possible working layout is as follows:
Source: /some/prefix/src1
Source: /some/prefix/src2
Source: /some/prefix/src3
Objdir: /some/prefix/obj
Environment: CCACHE_BASEDIR='${SRCTOP:H}' MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX='${SRCTOP:H}/obj'
This will use src*/../obj as the MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX and tells ccache to replace
all absolute paths to be relative. Using something like this is required due
to -I and -o flags containing both SRC and OBJDIR absolute paths that ccache
adds into its hash for the object without CCACHE_BASEDIR.
distcc can be hooked into by setting CCACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/bin/distcc.
I have not personally tested this and assume it will not mix well with
using the bootstrap compiler.
The cache from buildworld can be reused in a subdir by first running
'make buildenv' (from r290424).
Note that the cache is currently different depending on whether -j is
used or not due to ccache enabling -fdiagnostics-color automatically if
stderr is a TTY, which bmake only does if not using -j.
The system I used for testing was:

the dramatic time savings with a full cache.

This speeds up buildworld by 16% on my system and buildkernel by 35%.
Rather than calling mkdep(1), which is just a wrapper around 'cc -E',
use the modern -MD -MT -MF flags to gather and generate dependencies during
compilation. This flag was introduced in GCC "a long time ago", in GCC 3.0,
and is also supported by Clang. (It appears that ICC also supports this but I
do not have access to test it). This avoids running the preprocessor *twice*
for every build, in both 'make depend' and 'make all'. This is especially
noticeable when using ccache since it does not cache preprocessor results from
mkdep(1) / 'cc -E', but still speeds up compilation with the -MD flags.
For 'make depend' a tree-walk is still done to ensure that all DPSRCS
are generated when expected, and that beforedepend/afterdepend and
_EXTRADEPEND are all still respected. In time this may change but for now
I've been conservative. The time for a tree-walk with -j combined with
SUBDIR_PARALLEL is not significant. For example, it takes about 9 seconds
with -j15 to walk all of src/ for 'make depend' now on my system.
A .depend file is still generated with the various rules that apply to
the final target, or custom rules. Otherwise there are now
per-built-object-file .depend files, such as .depend.filename.o. These
are included directly by make rather than populating .depend with a loop
and .depend lines, which only added overhead to the now almost-NOP 'make
depend' phase.
Before this I experimented with having mkdep(1) called in parallel per-file.
While this improved the kernel and lib/libc 'make depend' phase, it resulted
in slower build times overall.
The -M flags are removed from CFLAGS when linking since they have no effect.
Enabling this by default, for src or out-of-src, can be done once more testing
has been done, such as a ports exp-run, and with more compilers.

Before this, if a file was installed to DESTDIR/some/dir and that directory
was missing due to not having ran 'make distrib-dirs' yet, the file would
be installed as 'some/dir'. For something like bsd.incs.mk with INCLUDEDIR
being a sub-directory of /usr/include, this could result in all of the headers
being installed to a file rather than getting a directory of them.
Now it will error that the file/directory does not exist rather than hide
the issue.
Another option being discussed is to implement GNU's install -D flag which
would auto create any missing directories.
This is a mitigation of the problem. The proper order to the build is to
run 'make distrib-dirs' first, but that can be forgotten if building from
a sub-directory after updating the source code to the latest revision.

This mostly fixes an interaction with bsd.test.mk with PROGS and SCRIPTS.
This was most notable with 'make clean' and 'make install', which r281055
and r272055 attempted to address but were inadequate.
It also addresses similar issues in bsd.progs.mk when not using bsd.test.mk.
This also fixes cases of NOT running commands in the parent when using
bsd.progs.mk:
- 'make clean' was not run for the main process for Makefiles which had both
FILES and SUBDIR but no PROGS or SCRIPTS. This usually was just a
leftover Kyuafile.auto. One such example is usr.bin/bmake/tests/sysmk/t1/2.
- 'make obj' was not running in the current directory with bsd.test.mk due
to early inclusion of bsd.subdir.mk. This was not really a problem due to
the SUBDIRS using 'mkdir -p' for their objdirs.
There were subtle bugs causing this wrong behavior:
1. bsd.progs.mk needs to set SCRIPTS to empty when recursing to avoid
the sub-makes from installing, cleaning or building the SCRIPTS;
only the parent make should be doing this. r281055 effectively did
the same but wasn't enough.
2. CLEANFILES may contain (especially from *.test.mk) files which only
the parent should clean, such as from FILES and SCRIPTS. To resolve
sub-makes also cleaning these, reset CLEANFILES and CLEANDIRS in the
children before including bsd.prog.mk. A tempting alternative would be
to only handle CLEANFILES in the parent but then the child bsd.prog.mk
CLEANFILES of per-PROGS wouldn't be setup.
3. bsd.subdir.mk was included too soon in bsd.test.mk. It needs to be
included after bsd.prog.mk as the SCRIPTS logic is short-circuitted if
'install:' is already defined (which bsd.subdir.mk does). There is
actually no need to include bsd.subdir.mk from bsd.test.mk as bsd.prog.mk
and bsd.obj.mk will do so in the proper order. The description in r257095
covers this for FILES and was fixed differently, though changing the
handling of target(install) in bsd.prog.mk may make sense after more
research.
4. bsd.progs.mk had extra logic to handle recursing SCRIPTS if PROGS was
empty, which isn't its business to be doing. SCRIPTS is handled fine
by bsd.prog.mk. This mostly reverts and reworks the fix in r259209 and
partially reverts r272055.
5. bsd.progs.mk has no need to depend 'all:' on SCRIPTS and FILES. These
are handled by bsd.prog.mk/bsd.files.mk fine. This also partially reverts
r272055.
6. bsd.progs.mk was not drop-in safe for bsd.prog.mk. Move the PROGS
check from r273186 to allow it to be used safely.
Specific tested cases:
SCRIPTS:no PROGS:no FILES:yes SUBDIR:yes
usr.bin/bmake/tests/sysmk/t1/2
SCRIPTS:yes PROGS:no FILES:yes SUBDIR:no
usr.bin/bmake/tests/sysmk/t1/2/1

lib/libthr/tests
SCRIPTS:yes PROGS:no FILES:yes SUBDIR:no
usr.bin/yacc/tests
libexec/atf/atf-sh/tests
A full buildworld/installworld/clean comparison with mtree was also done.
The only relevant difference was the new fixed behavior of removing
Kyuafile.auto from the objdir in 'clean'.
Converting SCRIPTS to be a special case FILES group will make this less
fragile and is being explored.
One known remaining issue is 'cleandepend' removing the tags files for
every recursive call.
Note that the 'make clean' command runs for the CURDIR last, which can make
it appear to run multiple times when cleaning in tests/, but each command is
for a SUBDIR returning up the chain. This is purely bsd.subdir.mk behavior.

update paths; and include everything in the "base" distribution.
The "games" distribution being optional made sense when there were more
games and we had small disks; but the "games-like" games were moved into
the ports tree a dozen years ago and the remaining "utility-like" games
occupy less than 0.001% of my laptop's small hard drive. Meanwhile every
new user is confronted by the question "do you want games installed" when
they they try to install FreeBSD.
The next steps will be:
2. Removing punch card (bcd, ppt), phase-of-moon (pom), clock (grdc), and
caesar cipher (caesar, rot13) utilities. I intend to keep fortune, factor,
morse, number, primes, and random, since there is evidence that those are
still being used.
3. Merging src/games into src/usr.bin.
This change will not be MFCed.

Otherwise there's nothing for ctfconvert to do, and it ends up emitting an
error for each object file. Also remove some redundant checks from
bsd.prog.mk and bsd.lib.mk.
