make.conf options for profiling.

[Alain De Vos]

Some options in make.conf can be related to profiling.
There exist for instance in make.conf you can SET/UNSET, globally or port based.

APROFILE
LOW_MEMORY_PROFILE
MEMPROF
NFPROFILE
PERFPROFILE
PPROFILES
PROFANITY
PROFILE
PROFILER
PROFILING
PROFTPD
RPROF

But which option should be enabled/disabled in which context and what do they mean.

I have 3400 ports installed, so going over every port is a bit cumbersome.

 

[Alain De Vos]

A few lines explanation each option would be nice to have.

Options are per port, look at their description. Similar options should be named the same, but most likely, these are sufficiently different. And I'm very sure PROFANITY isn't related to any profiling stuff.

Really generic options are described in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.options.desc.mk. This only knows PROFILE though.

 

[Alain De Vos]

A few words of description of any option would be nice to have though.
As it does not exist.

 

[zirias@]

Options are per port, look at their description.

I mean, you found these somewhere? Every port introducing an option not in the list of the generic ones also adds a description.

Currently compiling with,

OPTIONS_SET+=PROFILE 
OPTIONS_SET+=PROFILING
