ChangeLog since bmake-20240309
2024-04-30 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240430
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o main.c: ensure '.include <makefile>' respects MAKESYSPATH.
Dir_FindFile will search .CURDIR first unless ".DOTLAST" is seen.
2024-04-28 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240428
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o simplify freeing of lists
o arch.c: trim pointless comments
o var.c: delay variable assignments until actually needed
don't reallocate memory after evaluating an expression, result is
almost always short-lived.
2024-04-26 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240426
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o job.c: in debug output, print the directory in which a job
failed at same time as failed target so it is more easily found in
build log.
2024-04-24 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240424
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o clean up comments, code and tests
2024-04-23 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240422
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: avoid LazyBuf for :*time modifiers.
LazyBuf's are not nul terminated so not suitable for passing to
functions that expect that. These modifiers are used sparingly so
an extra allocation is not a problem.
2024-04-20 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240420
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o provide more context information for parse/evaluate errors
2024-04-14 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240414
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o parse.c: print -dp debug info earlier so we see which
.if or .for line is being parsed.
2024-04-04 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240404
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o fix some unit tests for Cygwin
o parse.c: exit immediately after reading a null byte from a makefile
* fix generation of bmake.cat1
2024-03-19 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240314
Add/Improve support for Cygwin
o uname -s output isn't useful so allow configure to
set FORCE_MAKE_OS - to force the value of .MAKE.OS
and use Cygwin which matches uname -o
o fix some unit-tests for Cygwin
* configure.in: use_makefile=no for Cygwin et al.
NOTE: bmake does not support Cygwin and likely never will,
mk/ChangeLog since bmake-20240309
2024-04-24 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* meta.autodep.mk: do not override start_utc
2024-04-18 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* sys.dirdeps.mk: set defaults for DEP_* at level 0 too.
These help when first include of Makefile.depend happens in a leaf
dir.
* install-mk (MK_VERSION): 20240414
2024-04-09 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* install-mk (MK_VERSION): 20240408
* init.mk: allow for _ as well as . to join V
and Q from QUALIFIED_VAR_LIST and VAR_QUALIFIER_LIST.
* progs.mk: avoid overlap between PROG_VARS and
init.mk's QUALIFIED_VAR_LIST since PROG would also
match its VAR_QUALIFIER_LIST,
libs.mk does not have the same issue.
* subdir.mk: _SUBDIRUSE for realinstall should run install
remove include of ${.CURDIR}/Makefile.inc that can be done via
local.subdir.mk where needed
* own.mk: do not conflict with man.mk
2024-03-19 Simon J Gerraty <sjg@beast.crufty.net>
* install-mk (MK_VERSION): 20240314
* add sys/Cygwin.mk from Christian Franke
Interesting/relevant changes since bmake-20230909
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240106
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o fix duplicate progname when reporting an unknown target
o unit tests for Cmd_Exec using temp file
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240105
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o main.c: Cmd_Exec write cmd to a file if too big
avoid blowing commandline/env limits
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20240101
o util.c: flesh out more of strftime
* configure.in: add --with-bmake-strftime
it is not a full implementation but enough to pass all
the unit-tests.
* parse.c: LoadFile do not append \n to empty buffer.
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231230
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o simplify memory allocation for string buffers
o fix declared types of list nodes
o suff.c: clean up freeing of suffixes
o var.c: simplify debug message for the ':@var@...@' modifier
clean up variable handling
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231226
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o compat.c: ensure make's output is correctly ordered with that of
the target when not going to a tty
o main.c: check for shellPath whether to call Shell_Init()
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231224
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o compat.c: check for shellPath whether to call Shell_Init()
tweak the unit test to detect the bug thus fixed.
o make.1: do not claim .SHELL is only used by jobs mode.
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231220
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o str.c: speed up pattern matching in the ':M' modifier
o var.c: fix confusing debug logging when deleting a variable
use consistent debug messages style when ignoring variables
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231210
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: avoid segfault on empty :C match expression
explain in debug log why variable assignment is ignored.
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231208
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o var.c: ensure fromCmd is set correctly for variables set on
command line.
* VERSION (_MAKE_VERSION): 20231124
Merge with NetBSD make, pick up
o main.c: cleanup processing of -j
fix lint warning about strchr
o var.c: more accurate error message for invalid ':mtime' argument
cleanup :[...] modifier
avoid reading beyond substring when comparing
o unit-tests cover all cases of :mtime, test and explain exporting
of variables
o cleanup comments
* bsd.after-import.mk (ECHO_TAG): FreeBSD no longer uses
$FreeBSD$ tag, so avoid adding it.
mk/ChangeLog since bmake-20230909
* dirdeps.mk: for MAKE_VERSION 20240105 we do not have the same
limits on command line length, so skip export of lists to env.
* jobs.mk: avoid C suffix in JOB_MAX_C if factor is floating
point. This keeps JOB_MAX numeric incase another makefile does
comparisons.
* gendirdeps.mk: if META_XTRAS is passed to us, add to META_FILES
Relevant/interesting changes (see ChangeLog for more):
o variables like .newline and .MAKE.{GID,PID,PPID,UID}
should be read-only.
o .[NO]READONLY: for control of read-only variables
o .SYSPATH: for controlling the path searched for makefiles
o allow for white-space between command specifiers @+-
o add more details to warning 'Extra targets ignored'
o make.1: sync list of built-in variables with reality
sort list of built-in variables
o cond.c: add more details to error message for numeric comparison
o job.c: fix handling of null bytes in output
o Allow .break to terminate a .for loop early
o var.c: fix out-of-bounds errors when parsing
o fix exit status for '-q' (since 1994)
Lots more unit tests and code cleanup
Relevant changes from ChangeLog
o job.c: Print -de error information when running multiple jobs
o var.c: only report error for unmatched regex subexpression
when linting (-dL) since we cannot tell when an unmatched
subexpression is an expected result.
reduce memory allocations in the modifiers ':D' and ':U'
reduce memory allocation and strlen calls in modifier ':from=to'
in the ':Q' modifier, only allocate memory if necessary
improve performance for LazyBuf
reduce debug logging and memory allocation for ${:U...}
reduce verbosity of the -dv debug logging for standard cases
fix double varname expansion in the variable modifier '::='
o var.c: avoid evaluating many modifiers in parse only mode
in strict mode (-dL) many variable references are parsed twice,
the first time just to report parse errors early, so we want to
avoid side effects and wasted effort to the extent possible.
o allow env var MAKE_OBJDIR_CHECK_WRITABLE=no to skip writable
checks in InitObjdir. Explicit .OBJDIR target always allows
read-only directory.
o Fix building and unit-tests on non-BSD.
o More code cleanup and refactoring.
o More unit tests
