This leads the way for fixing cross-build cleanup, and eventually replacing
'cleandir' with it during the build.

ccache is mostly beneficial for frequent builds where -DNO_CLEAN is not
used to achieve a safe pseudo-incremental build. This is explained in
more detail upstream [1] [2]. It incurs about a 20%-28% hit to populate the
cache, but with a full cache saves 30-50% in build times. When combined with
the WITH_FAST_DEPEND feature it saves up to 65% since ccache does cache the
resulting dependency file, which it does not do when using mkdep(1)/'CC
-E'. Stats are provided at the end of this message.
This removes the need to modify /etc/make.conf with the CC:= and CXX:=
lines which conflicted with external compiler support [3] (causing the
bootstrap compiler to not be built which lead to obscure failures [4]),
incorrectly invoked ccache in various stages, required CCACHE_CPP2 to avoid
Clang errors with parenthesis, and did not work with META_MODE.
The option name was picked to match the existing option in ports. This
feature is available for both in-src and out-of-src builds that use
/usr/share/mk.
Linking, assembly compiles, and pre-processing avoid using ccache since it is
only overhead. ccache does nothing special in these modes, although there is
no harm in calling it for them.
CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK is set to 'content' when using the in-tree bootstrap
compiler to hash the content of the compiler binary to determine if it
should be a cache miss. For external compilers the 'mtime' option is used
as it is more efficient and likely to be correct. Future work may optimize the
'content' check using the same checks as whether a bootstrap compiler is needed
to be built.
The CCACHE_CPP2 pessimization is currently default in our devel/ccache
port due to Clang requiring it. Clang's -Wparentheses-equality,
-Wtautological-compare, and -Wself-assign warnings do not mix well with
compiling already-pre-processed code that may have expanded macros that
trigger the warnings. GCC has so far not had this issue so it is allowed to
disable the CCACHE_CPP2 default in our port.
Sharing a cache between multiple checkouts, or systems, is explained in
the ccache manual. Sharing a cache over NFS would likely not be worth
it, but syncing cache directories between systems may be useful for an
organization. There is also a memcached backend available [5]. Due to using
an object directory outside of the source directory though you will need to
ensure that both are in the same prefix and all users use the same layout. A
possible working layout is as follows:
Source: /some/prefix/src1
Source: /some/prefix/src2
Source: /some/prefix/src3
Objdir: /some/prefix/obj
Environment: CCACHE_BASEDIR='${SRCTOP:H}' MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX='${SRCTOP:H}/obj'
This will use src*/../obj as the MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX and tells ccache to replace
all absolute paths to be relative. Using something like this is required due
to -I and -o flags containing both SRC and OBJDIR absolute paths that ccache
adds into its hash for the object without CCACHE_BASEDIR.
distcc can be hooked into by setting CCACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/bin/distcc.
I have not personally tested this and assume it will not mix well with
using the bootstrap compiler.
The cache from buildworld can be reused in a subdir by first running
'make buildenv' (from r290424).
Note that the cache is currently different depending on whether -j is
used or not due to ccache enabling -fdiagnostics-color automatically if
stderr is a TTY, which bmake only does if not using -j.
The system I used for testing was:
WITNESS
Build options: -j20 WITH_LLDB=yes WITH_DEBUG_FILES=yes WITH_CCACHE_BUILD=yes
DISK: ZFS 3-way mirror with very slow disks using SSD l2arc/log.
The arc was fully populated with src tree files and ccache objects.
RAM: 76GiB
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5520 @2.27GHz
2 package(s) x 4 core(s) x 2 SMT threads = hw.ncpu=16
The WITH_FAST_DEPEND feature was used for comparison here as well to show
the dramatic time savings with a full cache.

Bmake has a documented feature of '-N' to skip executing commands which is
specifically intended for debugging top-level builds and not recursing into
sub-directories. This matches the older 'make -n' behavior we added which made
'-n -n' the recursing target and '-n' a non-recursing target.
Removing the '-n -n' feature allows the build to work as documented in
the bmake manpage with '-n' and '-N'. The older '-n -n' feature was also
not documented anywhere that I could see.
Note that the ${_+_} var is still needed as currently bmake incorrectly
executes '+' commands when '-N' is specified.
The '-n' and '-n -n' features were broken for several reasons prior to this.
r251748 made '_+_' never expand with '-n -n' which resulted in many
sub-directories not being visited until fixed 2 years later in r288391, and
many targets were given .MAKE over the past few years which resulted in
non-sub-make commands, such as rm and ln and mtree, to be executed.
This should also allow removing some indirection hacks in bsd.subdir.mk and
other cases of .USE that have a .MAKE by using '+'.

The condition used matches the condition in sys.mk for setting _+_ to blank
or +.
With this -n will continue to not descend into Makefile.inc1, while -n -n will
and cause Makefile.inc1's target to run with -n.

This is relevant for makeman using the 'make targets' output in src.conf(5).
This makes a _UNIVERSE_TARGETS that removes arm64 if the build
requirements are not met.
bmake specific constructs not needed for make bootstrap so fmake
doesn't see them. This works with fmake just well enough for us to
build bmake to build the rest of the tree without fatal errors. Tested
only with fmake package.
arm64 relies on an external binutils port or package right now, because
the in-tree linker from binutils 2.17.50 does not support arm64. Add
arm64 to universe if the linker is available. If not output a message
that arm64 is skipped.
buildworld and buildkernel use the external binutils automatically, so
it's sufficient to run 'pkg install aarch64-binutils' to build
FreeBSD/arm64.

changes to add kernel and userland support will be committed as they are
reviewed.
As our copy of binutils is too old the devel/aarch64-binutils port needs
to be installed to pull in a linker.
To build either TARGET needs to be set to arm64, or TARGET_ARCH set to
aarch64. The latter is set so uname -p will return aarch64 as existing
third party software expects this.

building toolchain for the host computer. This toolchain produces
TARGET_ARCH and assumes the rest of the system contains libraries for
the target. It is intended to be used in a "qemu-user jail" where all
the binaries would otherwise be the target architecture's to build
ports. However, emulation of the compilers is too slow, so we build
native binaries for that. Rather than use the xdev produced binaries,
with all their weird links and paths, these binaries use the native
paths. They will not work unless installed into the qemu-user jail.

During "make buildworld", building bmake is (one of) the very first steps
and we should not be building any of its tests. Conceptually, this is the
right thing to do 1) for build simplicity reasons and 2) because there is
no need to build any tests this early on.
In practice, this fixes tinderbox builds of CURRENT from 9.x when MK_TESTS
is enabled. This is because bsd.test.mk needs some modern bmake features
not present in 9.x (:tW) and tinderbox is forcing the build to use the
CURRENT share/mk files from the very beginning (see r266617). By skipping
the build of the tests when still using the host make, we omit the problem.
Arguably, what tinderbox is doing is wrong and needs to be addressed, but
that is a separate issue.
UPDATING. This is the first step towards the removal of ia64 from
head. A buildworld for ia64 will now yield:

environments (that I can't reproduce locally, but that others have
reported) seem to get tripped up by this man page install. There's
really no need to do it, so turn off the man pages using the most
portable method. We can't just directly set MK_MAN=no here because
we're bootstrapping in the host environment and such a setting was
forbidden until very recently. NO_MAN= can produce a warning, but for
now the warning is benign.
build world, so it is the only make we build or install. fmake is
still in the tree, but disconnected, and upgrades from older systems
that still have bmake has not been removed, but its state has not been
tested (it should work given how minimal the work to upgrade to bmake
is).
#NO_UNIVERSE. Many of these config files are important examples, but
add little to no regresive value to the intended purpose of
UNIVERSE. We now build over 120 kernels during universe. There's
really little to no value to this over building say 60 or even 30 of
them (either is still a way too big number). This is especially true
for kernels that are nothing more than including a common base and
adding a static DTB file. Start by pruning 1/3 of the arm kernels that
add little regresion value.
