what about to compile a kernel w/ debugging informations from buildkernel target ?
and about parallel make ?
Makefile.inc1 would have something like :
.if defined(DEBUG)
CONFIGARGS+= -g
.endif
KMAKEARGS=
.if defined(JOBS)
KMAKEARGS+= -j$(JOBS)
.endif
.if defined(DEBUG)
KMAKEARGS+= DEBUG=-g
.endif
...
${WMAKEENV} MACHINE=${MACHINE} KERNEL=${_kernel} ${MAKE} ${KMAKEARGS} all
.endfor
also, why the kernel object are in /usr/obj/.../sys/<KERNEL> and not in
/usr/obj/.../sys/compile/<KERNEL> which match more the old way ?
Cyrille.
