== 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.

The GNU extension bits in the base system are old, no longer faithful
to upstream, and surprising in some regards. Switch to documenting
WITH_GNU_GREP_COMPAT and default GNU_GREP_COMPAT to OFF in the name of
good behavior.
According to http://www.regular-expressions.info, GNU extensions:
- Add missing quantifiers to BREs: \?, \+
- Add branching to BREs: \|
- Add backreferences (\1 through \9) to EREs
- Add \w, \W, \s, and \S corresponding to :alnum:, [^[:alnum:]],
:space:, and [^[:space:]] respectively
- Add word boundaries and anchors:
\b: word boundary
\B: not word boundary
\<: Strt of word
\>: End of word
\`: Start of subject string
\': End of subject string
These extensions are still available in /usr/bin/grep by default today,
as it is still GNU grep. As part of the bsdgrep migration plan these
extensions may be added to bsdgrep's regex support if necessary.

Bugs have been found in the fastmatch implementation as used in bsdgrep.
Some have been fixed (r316495) while fixes for others are in review
(D10098).
In comparison with the fastmatch implementation, Kyle Evans found that:
- regex(3)'s performance with literal expressions offers a speed
improvement over fastmatch
- regex(3)'s performance, both with simple BREs and EREs, seems to be
comparable
The regex implementation was imported in r226035, and the commit message
reports:
This is a temporary solution until the whole regex library is
not replaced so that BSD grep development can continue and the
backported code gets some review and testing. This change only
improves scalability slightly, there is no big performance boost
yet but several minor bugs have been found and fixed.
Introduce a WITH_/WITHOUT_BSD_GREP_FASTMATCH knob to support testing
of both approaches.

These have no effect (and WITHOUT_GNU is documented as having no
effect). I intend to later introduce a WITHOUT_GPL knob to serve a
similar purpose as WITHOUT_GNU's previously documented intent, but with
a more accurate name. To avoid confusion over the transition though just
remove the existing, nonfunctional ones.
Copying the source VCS ID from WITH_/WITHOUT_* into the generated
src.conf.5 is not necessary, as it is generally possible to determine
the same information using the VCS to examine commit metadata. The
individual source files also match the name of the option recorded in
the generated file, so it is clear from where the content originated.
The copied IDs generate extraneous, non-content noise in the generated
src.conf.5 in some cases, including the first time the file is generated
on a stable branch. In addition, the source file $FreeBSD$ tags are not
expanded by git or other non-Subversion VCSs, which means that makeman
previously could not be used in a non-Subversion working tree.
I accept that there's some desire to keep these, but on balance believe
there is more benefit in removing them.
