Document some user-settable make variables in ports.7

This is not a comprehensive list, as the variables themselves are spread
out over multiple files, but it is a start.

Add a section to make.conf noting that variables may be set there that
affect ports builds, but refer to ports.7 and elsewhere for the actual
listing; any listing in make.conf.5 would likely become out of date
fairly quickly.

Copy head to stable/9 as part of 9.0-RELEASE release cycle.

Approved by: re (implicit)


# 223148 16-Jun-2011 ru

It's a bit odd, but "make update" in src/ can also update the ports/,
doc/, and now www/ trees, but only using the "cvsup" transport.

When "make update" is run using a tree's makefile, it can also use
"cvs" (except for www/) and "svn" (only src/).

Clean up documentation and code regarding "make update":

- Increase oddness by adding support for WWWSUPFILE and NO_WWWUPDATE to
Makefile.inc1 (analogous to PORTSSUPFILE/NO_PORTSUPDATE and
DOCSUPFILE/NO_DOCUPDATE; WWWSUPFILE already supported by www/Makefile).

- Document all trees that support CVS_UPDATE.

- Document all trees that support SUP_UPDATE.

- Document SVN_UPDATE.

- Document NO_WWWUPDATE.

- make.conf(5) mistakenly said that *SUPFILE* had defaults.

- Add an example entry for WWWSUPFILE.

2. Incorporate Brian's suggestion to make the link relative. This
is necessary to handle situations (such as mergemaster) where the
user is building a tree in a seperate environment. This will also
fix the problem with the way DESTDIR is set in 'make release'.

3. Add a new knob, NO_BIND_MTREE, as suggested by the folks who
already have stuff in /var/named that they don't want me to mess with.

4. Update make.conf(5) with the new stuff, and correct a few paths

Limit testing for an up-to-date version of make(1) to the world and
buildworld targets by default, but allow it to be done for all user
targets by introducing a boolean option, named ALWAYS_CHECK_MAKE.

This change is by no means perfect and I don't even want to claim
this to be a solution. It does however address the fact that not
everybody likes to see make(1) rebuilt simply because the regression
test failed for some reason or other, including pilot error. It
therefore serves the purpose of keeping the crowd happy until we
have something better or simply reached a compromise.

The reasons for changing the default behaviour are:
o It avoids a negative, possibly non-intuitive option,
o It's according to POLA and fond of feet,
o Only buildworld is documented to do its best to be
successful at reasonably cost.

Move /etc/defaults/make.conf to /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf as
discussed on the arch@ mailinglist (after repo-copy).

sys.mk will .error if it finds /etc/defaults/make.conf but include
it anyways (this is the same behaviour as with the make.conf.local
removal).

/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf has BDEFLAGS commented out now,
since it's only an example file.

Adjust all textes that talk about make.conf or defaults/make.conf to
match the new situation.

When discussing optimization levels, don't put the compiler options in
.Op. None of the other manual pages do it when discussing options in
the main text, so this one shouldn't, either. Also, use .Pq instead
of another odd constructhyphenation isn't an issue here, since it's
desireable to have the contents of that digression appear together,
and it's already in another macro, anyway).

Add the `WANT_FORCE_OPTIMIZATION_DOWNGRADE' knob. If set to an integer
value, it forces GCC to not optimize above this level. For intance, GCC
made with "WANT_FORCE_OPTIMIZATION_DOWNGRADE=1" is a good setting for the
Alpha platform when building ports.

New make knob, SENDMAIL_M4_FLAGS, modifies the flags passed to m4 when
building a .cf file from a .mc file.

Include -D_FFR_TLS_O_T to enable tls policy control since the sendmail binary
build enables that FFR as well.

cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows

Change NO_MAKEDEV to a finer granularity method:
NO_MAKEDEV_INSTALL and NO_MAKEDEV_RUN. The former implying the latter.
The names imply what they do. The last commit by DES based on a PR defeated
the original idea behind NO_MAKEDEV, which was not to run MAKEDEV, but to do
the installation of MAKEDEV. This should satisfy both parties on the MAKEDEV
challenge.
Reflect this in the documentation.

# 72916 22-Feb-2001 gshapiro

Add a note indicating that SENDMAIL_MC should include the path. This is
necessary if you expect to be able to use this setting in both /etc/mail

# 72846 22-Feb-2001 gshapiro

Add a new make knob, SENDMAIL_MC, which is meant to replace SENDMAIL_CF as
users should be configuring via m4 now. If set, use m4 to create the .cf
file. Also, if either SENDMAIL_MC or SENDMAIL_CF is set, 'make install' or
'make distribution' in src/etc/sendmail/ will install the appropriate .cf as
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf. This fixes some mergemaster problems.
