Intel C/C++ compiler (lang/icc) to build the kernel. The icc CPUTYPE CFLAGS use icc v7 syntax, icc v8 moans about them, but doesn't abort. They also produce CPU specific code (new instructions of the CPU, not only CPU specific scheduling), so if you get coredumps with signal 4 (SIGILL, illegal instruction) you've used the wrong CPUTYPE. Incarnations of this patch survive gcc compiles and my make universe. I use it on my desktop. To use it update share/mk, add /usr/local/intel/compiler70/ia32/bin (icc v7, works) or /usr/local/intel_cc_80/bin (icc v8, doesn't work) to your PATH, make sure you have a new kernel compile directory (e.g. MYKERNEL_icc) and run CFLAGS="-O2 -ip" CC=icc make depend CFLAGS="-O2 -ip" CC=icc make in it. Don't compile with -ipo, the build infrastructure uses ld directly to link the kernel and the modules, but -ipo needs the link step to be performed with Intel's linker. Problems with icc v8: - panic: npx0 cannot be emulated on an SMP system - UP: first start of /bin/sh results in a FP exception Parts of this commit contains suggestions or submissions from Marius Strobl <marius@alchemy.franken.de>.

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 ``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.
