.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
A kernel configuration file specifies the configuration of a
|
|
|
|
|
.Fx
|
|
|
|
|
kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
It is processed by
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr config 8
|
|
|
|
|
to create a build environment where a kernel may be built using
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr make 1 .
|
|
|
|
|
.Ss Lexical Structure
|
|
|
|
|
A kernel configuration file comprises a sequence of specification
|
|
|
|
|
directives.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
A specification directive starts with a keyword at the beginning
|
|
|
|
|
of the line and is followed by additional parameters.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
A specification directive may be terminated by a semicolon
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql \&;
|
|
|
|
|
or by a newline.
|
|
|
|
|
Long input lines may be broken into shorter lines by starting the
|
|
|
|
|
second and subsequent lines with a white space character.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Case is significant,
|
|
|
|
|
.Dq Li machine
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
.Dq Li MACHINE
|
|
|
|
|
are different tokens.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
A double quote character
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql \[dq]
|
|
|
|
|
starts a quoted string.
|
|
|
|
|
All characters up to the next quote character form the value
|
|
|
|
|
of the quoted string.
|
|
|
|
|
A
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql \[dq]
|
|
|
|
|
character may be inserted into a quoted string by
|
|
|
|
|
using the sequence
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql \e\[dq] .
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Numbers are specified using
|
|
|
|
|
.Tn C Ns -style
|
|
|
|
|
syntax.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
A
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql #
|
|
|
|
|
character starts a comment; all characters from the
|
|
|
|
|
.Ql #
|
|
|
|
|
character till the end of the current line are ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Whitespace between tokens is ignored, except inside quoted strings.
|
|
|
|
|
Whitespace following a comment line is ignored.
|
|
|
|
|
.Ss Configuration Directives
|
|
|
|
|
Kernel configuration directives may appear in any order
|
|
|
|
|
in a kernel configuration file.
|
|
|
|
|
Directives are processed in order of appearance with subsequent
|
|
|
|
|
directive lines overriding the effect of prior ones.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|

kern_environment: use any provided environments, evict hintmode/envmode
At the moment, hintmode and envmode are used to indicate whether static
hints or static env have been provided in the kernel config(5) and the
static versions are mutually exclusive with loader(8)-provided environment.
hintmode *can* be reconfigured later to pull from the dynamic environment,
thus taking advantage of the loader(8) or post-kmem environment setting.
This changeset fixes both problems at once to move us from a semi-confusing
state to a consistent state: if an environment file, hints file, or
loader(8) environment are provided, we use them in a well-known order of
precedence:
- loader(8) environment
- static environment
- static hints file
Once the dynamic environment is setup this becomes a moot point. The
loader(8) and static environments are merged (respecting the above order of
precedence), and the static hints are merged in on an as-needed basis after
the dynamic environment has been setup.
Hints lookup are changed to respect all of the above. Before the dynamic
environment is setup, lookups use the above-mentioned order and fallback to
the next environment if a matching hint is not found. Once the dynamic
environment is setup, that is used on its own since it captures all of the
above information plus any dynamic kenv settings that came up later in boot.
The following tangentially related changes were made to res_find:
- A hintp cookie is now passed in so that related searches continue using
the chain of environments (or dynamic environment) without relying on
global state
- All three environments will be searched if they actually have valid hints
to use, rather than just choosing the first environment that actually had
a hint and rolling with that only
The hintmode sysctl has been ripped out. static_{env,hints}.disabled are
still honored and will disable their respective environments from being used
for hint lookups and from being merged into the dynamic environment, as
expected.

Hints provided in this static device configuration will be overwritten in the
|
|
|
|
|
order in which they're encountered.
|
|
|
|
|
Hints in the compiled-in environment takes precedence over compiled-in hints,
|
|
|
|
|
and hints in the environment prepared for the kernel by
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
|
|
|
takes precedence over hints in the compiled-in environment.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Once the dynamic environment becomes available, all compiled-in hints will be
|
|
|
|
|
added to the dynamic environment if they do not already have an override in
|
|
|
|
|
the dynamic environment.
|
|
|
|
|
The dynamic environment will then be used for all searches of hints.
|
|
|
|

.Pp

.Va static_hints.disabled=1
|
|
|

may be specified in either a compiled-in environment or the
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr loader 8
|
|
|
|
|
environment to disable use of these hints files.
|
|
|
|
|
This option has no effect if specified in any environment after the
|
|
|
|

.Xr loader 8
|
|
|

The file

must conform to the syntax specified by

.Xr device.hints 5 .

Multiple hints lines are allowed.

2018-06-26 04:02:25 +00:00
|
|
|
The resulting hints will be the files concatenated in reverse order of
|
|
|
|
|
appearance so that hints in later files properly override hints in earlier
|
|
|
|
|
files.
