This is so that 'make depend' is not a required build step in these files. DPSRCS is overall unneeded. DPSRCS already contains SRCS, so anything which can safely be in SRCS should be. DPSRCS is mostly just a way to generate files that should not be linked into the final PROG/LIB. For headers and grammars it is safe for them to be in SRCS since they will be excluded during linking and installation. The only remaining uses of DPSRCS are for generating .c or .o files that must be built before 'make depend' can run 'mkdep' on the SRCS c files list. A semi-proper example is in tests/sys/kern/acct/Makefile where a checked-in .c file has an #include on a generated .c file. The generated .c file should not be linked into the final PROG though since it is #include'd. The more proper way here is just to build/link it in though without DPSRCS. Another example is in sys/modules/linux/Makefile where a shell script runs to parse a DPSRCS .o file that should not be linked into the module. Beyond those, the need for DPSRCS is largely unneeded, redundant, and forces 'make depend' to be ran. Generally, these Makefiles should avoid the need for DPSRCS and define proper dependencies for their files as well. An example of an improper usage and why this matters is in usr.bin/netstat. nl_defs.h was only in DPSRCS and so was not generated during 'make all', but only during 'make depend'. The files including it lacked proper depenencies on it, which forced running 'make depend' to workaround that bug. The 'make depend' target should mostly be used for incremental build help, not to produce a working build. This specific example was broken in the meta build until r287905 since it does not run 'make depend'. The gnu/lib/libreadline/readline case is fine since bsd.lib.mk has 'OBJS: SRCS:M*.h' when there is no .depend file. Sponsored by: EMC / Isilon Storage Division MFC after: 1 week |

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. See build(7) and 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. See build(7), config(8), and http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html for more information. 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 kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory. GENERIC is the default configuration used in release builds. NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used.
