being a bootstrap tool. However, for reproducible build output,
FreeBSD added dd status=none because it was otherwise difficult to
suppress the status information, but retain any errors that might
happen. There's no real reason that dd has to be a build tool, other
than we use status=none unconditional. Remove dd from a bootstrap tool
entirely by only using status=none when available. This may also help
efforts to build the system on non-FreeBSD hosts as well.

not page aligned. To do this, use the ld script gnu ld installs on my
system.
This is imperfect: LDFLAGS_BIN and LD_FLAGS_BIN describe different
things. The loader script could be better named and take into account
other architectures. And having two different mechanisms to do
basically the same thing needs study. However, it's blocking forward
progress on lld, so I'll work in parallel to sort these out.

This is not properly respecting WITHOUT or ARCH dependencies in target/.
Doing so requires a massive effort to rework targets/ to do so. A
better approach will be to either include the SUBDIR Makefiles directly
and map to DIRDEPS or just dynamically lookup the SUBDIR. These lose
the benefit of having a userland/lib, userland/libexec, etc, though and
results in a massive package. The current implementation of targets/ is
very unmaintainable.
Currently rescue/rescue and sys/modules are still not connected.

get rid of testing explicitly for clang (using ${CC:T:Mclang}) in
individual Makefiles.
Instead, use the following extra macros, for use with clang:
- NO_WERROR.clang (disables -Werror)
- NO_WCAST_ALIGN.clang (disables -Wcast-align)
- NO_WFORMAT.clang (disables -Wformat and friends)
- CLANG_NO_IAS (disables integrated assembler)
- CLANG_OPT_SMALL (adds flags for extra small size optimizations)
As a side effect, this enables setting CC/CXX/CPP in src.conf instead of
make.conf! For clang, use the following:
CC=clang
CXX=clang++
CPP=clang-cpp

- Make the PROBE_KEYBOARD option better resemble the -P option in
boot2, i.e., if keyboard isn't present then boot with both
RB_SERIAL and RB_MULTIPLE set.

switch to using C99-style comments everywhere in preprocessed
assembler. The reason is that lines starting with the regexp
'^[[:space:]]#' are treated as preprocessing directives, and
while it seems to work now with GCC, it's not necessarily has
to work. Use C99 comments `//' for the trailing comments to
save whitespace.
- Now that bsd.prog.mk deals with programs linked with -nostdlib
better, and has a notion of an "internal" program, use PROG
where possible. This has a good impact on the contents of
.depend files and causes programs to be linked with cc(1).
XXX: boot2 couldn't be converted as it's actually two programs.
Tested on: i386, amd64
- do not use PROG for what's not a real C program,
- use sys.mk transformation rules where possible,
- only create the "machine" symlink on AMD64,
- removed MAINTAINER lines in individual makefiles,
- added the LIBSTAND defitinion to <bsd.libnames.mk>,
- somewhat better contents in .depend files.

under way to move the remnants of the a.out toolchain to ports. As the
comment in src/Makefile said, this stuff is deprecated and one should not
expect this to remain beyond 4.0-REL. It has already lasted WAY beyond
that.
Notable exceptions:
gcc - I have not touched the a.out generation stuff there.
ldd/ldconfig - still have some code to interface with a.out rtld.
old as/ld/etc - I have not removed these yet, pending their move to ports.
some includes - necessary for ldd/ldconfig for now.
Tested on: i386 (extensively), alpha
actual end of the section. The new gas (binutils) puts in additional padding
which was misaligning the concatenated btx loader.

with the new binutils. Now that we have a decent assembler, all the old
m4 macros are no longer needed. Instead, straight assembly can be used
since as(1) now understands 16-bit addressing, branches, etc. Also,
several bugs have been fixed in as(1), allowing boot0.s to be further
cleaned up.
- Don't hard code 0x10000 as the entry point for the loader. Instead add
src/sys/boot/i386/Makefile.inc which defines a make variable with the
entry point for the loader. Move the loader's entry point up to
0x20000, which makes PXE happy.
- Don't try to use cpp to parse btxldr for the optional BTXLDR_VERBOSE,
instead use m4 to achieve this. Also, add a BTXLDR_VERBOSE knob in the
btxldr Makefile to turn this option on.
- Redo parts of cdldr's Makefile so that it now builds and installs cdboot
instead of having i386/loader/Makefile do that. Also, add in some more
variables to make the pxeldr Makefile almost identical and thus to ease
maintainability.
- Teach cdldr about the a.out format. Cdldr now parsers the a.out header
of the loader binary and relocates it based on that. The entry point of
the loader no longer has to be hardcoded into cdldr. Also, the boot
info table from mkisofs is no longer required to get a useful cdboot.
- Update the lsdev function for BIOS disks to parse other file systems
(such as DOS FAT) that we currently support. This is still buggy as
it assumes that a floppy with a DOS boot sector actually has a MBR and
parses it as such. I'll be fixing this in the future.
- The biggie: Add in support for booting off of PXE-enabled network
adapters. Currently, we use the TFTP API provided by the PXE BIOS.
Eventually we will switch to using the low-level NIC driver thus
allowing both TFTP and NFS to be used, but for now it's just TFTP.
