The file .Nm is generally created by the system administrator when the values need to be changed from their defaults. .Pp The purpose of .Nm is not to run commands or perform compilation actions directly. Instead, it is included by the various makefiles in .Pa /usr/src , .Pa /usr/ports and .Pa /usr/doc which conditionalize their internal actions according to the settings found there. .Pp The .Pa /etc/make.conf file is included from the the appropriate .Pa Makefile which specifies the default settings for all the available options. Options need only be specified in .Pa /etc/make.conf when the system administrator wishes to override these defaults. .Pp The build procedures occur in four broad areas: the world, the kernel, documentations and ports. Variables set in .Nm may be applicable during builds in one, two, or all four of these areas. They may be specified for a particular build via the .Fl D option of .Xr make 1 . .Pp The following lists provide a name and short description for each variable you can use during the indicated builds. The values of variables flagged as .Vt bool are ignored; the variable being set at all (even to .Dq Li FALSE or .Dq Li NO ) cause it to be treated as if it were set. .Pp The following list provides a name and short description for variables that are used for all builds, or are used by the .Pa makefiles for things other than builds. .Bl -tag -width Ar .It Va CFLAGS .Pq Vt str Controls the compiler setting when compiling C code. Optimization levels above .Oo Fl O ( O2 , No ...\& ) Oc are not supported. .Va BDECFLAGS is provided as a set of .Xr gcc 1 settings suggested by .An "Bruce Evans" Aq bde@FreeBSD.org for developing and testing changes.

The value is approximately milliseconds. Keypresses are accepted by the BIOS before booting from disk, making it possible to give custom boot parameters even when this is set to 0. .It Va COPTFLAGS .Pq Vt str Controls the compiler settings when building the kernel.
