Share your make.conf and src.conf

Hello :)

It would be nice that experienced users shared their make.conf and src.conf to help new users like me :)
I know that there are man pages and I read both of them, but real user's configurations are IMHO also helpful!
 
The only option new users should use: rm -f /etc/make.conf /etc/src.conf.

Seriously, unless you know what you are doing I would advice to stay away from them. If you know what you are doing you don't need this list.

I don't think so. Some options become obsolete and the posting of the configurations can also help experienced users to noticed them faster :)
 
I see nothing wrong with sharing make.confs. Then we can receive and provide some feedback on them. Maybe even nip some future problems in the bud before they even happen.

Or the whole thread could be a train wreck. Only one way to find out :p

Here is the make.conf I use for building desktop packages:
https://github.com/t6/freebsd-ports-sndio/blob/sndio-rebase/poudriere.d/fbsd12-amd64-sndio-make.conf

and for building a server package set:
https://github.com/t6/freebsd-ports-sndio/blob/sndio-rebase/poudriere.d/server-make.conf

On my workstation I also locally set this in /etc/make.conf
Code:
DEFAULT_VERSIONS=	ssl=libressl
DEVELOPER=		yes
DEV_WARNING_WAIT=	0
SU_CMD=			/usr/local/bin/sudo -E sh -c

And the /etc/make.conf for building FreeBSD base packages:
Code:
MALLOC_PRODUCTION=	yes
KERNCONF=		TOBIK
PKGSIGNKEY=		/root/pkgbase-private.key
REPODIR=		/pkgbase

/etc/src.conf is empty.
 
I don't think so. Some options become obsolete and the posting of the configurations can also help experienced users to noticed them faster
If/When you run into problems the first thing everybody is going to suggest is to remove /etc/make.conf and /etc/src.conf.
 
There's really not much to share. Especially the sharing of src.conf is pretty useless in my opinion because this is only useful if you need to specifically customize your system. For example, on my main server I use these options (amongst many others):

Code:
WITHOUT_EXAMPLES=
WITHOUT_FREEBSD_UPDATE=
WITHOUT_PC_SYSINSTALL=
WITHOUT_PF=
WITHOUT_PKGBOOTSTRAP=
WITHOUT_SENDMAIL=
WITHOUT_SVNLITE=
WITHOUT_IPFW=
WITHOUT_LDNS=
So the problem here is that if you, as unexperienced user, would blindly use my src.conf without understanding what these options do then you'll probably end up with a messed up system. For starters you won't have a working firewall anymore. That's because I'm using IPFilter on this system, which has to be specifically enabled in your kernel configuration. Which you didn't ask for ;)

Next you won't have Sendmail. So unless you installed an MTA from the ports collection (I'm using mail/postfix on this server) then you'll end up without mail. And I could go on... I also disabled freebsd-update so you'd be forced into using the source tree, no local DNS utilities (I dislike drill, but that's only because I'm very used to dig) so resolving could become tricky and no subversion.

Seriously... If you wish you customize your system then there's only 1 smart way to do it. Check out the source tree, then run man -M /usr/src/share/man src.conf to study all the new ("current") customization options and then add whatever you (don't) need.

I realize the others already mentioned all the caveats, but I figured I'd share an hands-on example.

You got best practice advice from

Well, if you are that smart why bothering us? Candidate for ignore list! Unfortunately the FreeBSD forums get flooded with such supersmart newbees. Reading their output here is just a waste of lifetime.

You have misunderstood me, I don´t consider me a supersmart newbie as you stated. In fact, when I disagreed with SirDice opinion, I gave a reason why with politeness. Now if you don´t agree with me, that´s ok for me, but please be polite with other people. It´s something very important to a healthy community :)

I've intentionally left commented out options pertaining to MODULES, because those I'm still figuring out and considering those. As for my LD, NM, OBJECTDUMP, and STRING options, I'm considering installing devel/binutils, and pointing to there. CUPS is mentioned twice, because that's what it takes to remove it with QT4 as well.

Enabling ATI, and disabling VESA, sets options for x11-drivers/xorg-drivers for the corresponding card.

* Edits - I see how using binutils from ports would affect developers, bc then it forces everyone to use its ports dependencies for that code, and for that code to be less portable.
It was supposed to be OBJDUMP, not OBJECTDUMP.

Here is some of my /etc/make.conf. Parts are stolen from other users in the forum, some are from my own
trial and error and many poudriere builds.

I have some trouble with my particular processor and compiling things with CPUTYPE?=native.
You may or may not. The main problem for me is with erroneous avx avx2 instructions popping up despite
disabling them.

I can include some other patches to files in /usr/ports/Mk that I use to work around this if there is interest.
My guess is that sandybridge and above processors won't run into the troubles I do.

Notes:

-These files are actually from a HardenedBSD system, so that's what the extra WITHOUT_HBSD_UPDATE is for.

-KERNCONFDIR is handy to store the KERNCONF outside /usr/src, so if you're syncing the entire /usr/src with SVN or GIT it's not removed as extra.

-I see a lot of people putting KERNCONF= in make.conf. AFAIK the KERNCONF= is best placed in src.conf, since it only concerns kernel builds. Correct me if I'm wrong :)

-If you turn off parts of world to build & install in src.conf, be sure to actually do a "make check-old" & "make check-old-libs" and (after checking) "yes|make delete-old" & "yes|make delete-old-libs". If you skip this, the old binaries of these parts (installed when the system was installed, some of which suid) will hang around on the filesystem without getting upgraded with the system. The idea is to actually remove these parts from the system, not just turning off upgrading them while keeping a very old version (possibly suid and exploitable) around :p
 
Are there any flags to prevent the build of clang (when building world) from including unwanted architectures?
For example, I only need x86 and x64, not ARM, AArch64, MIPS, Sparc, etc. But the build will include everything (which seems to take a large portion of total build time).

Left syscons in the base and module, in case of urgent need of VESA driver for any available card. Syscons, VESA and related drivers/arguments can likely be left out of the kernel build, because then that can hopefully be loaded from module if needed. I forgot if linux and linux64 modules are needed for certain FreeBSD modules, including for graphics cards, but if so, I can use VESA if that temporary need arises.

The compiler parts left out of src.conf, are referenced to clang from ports in make.conf. GSSAPI_BASE must be unset, before an alternate can be set.

I've noticed that the following have been added recently (July), https://reviews.freebsd.org/rS335875

Or the whole thread could be a train wreck.
Hopefully I don't wreck it...

I wanted to move my big list from NanoBSD but it was stale. So I started over on FreeBSD 12.
This is so minimal I don't recommend it for anyone without maximum caution. Firewalls removed.
I don't use a src.conf. I am building images from a custom makefile directory, modified from /usr/src/release.
I copy my /etc/make.conf in to position after building world and kernel.

How low can you go?? I have mine down to 205MB for starting embedded builds.
# ls -ll /usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/custom/memstick.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 205103616 Jun 6 21:45 /usr/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/custom/memstick.img

This is as low as I can go with networking, sshd and dhclient available. I can install software with pkg.
How awesome is it that FreeBSD is so configurable.
 
As you can see here, I'm not a fan of the C shell:

# build options
MALLOC_PRODUCTION=yes

KERNCONF=GENERIC ROUTER DESKTOP
The MALLOC_PRODUCTION is a leftover from using 11-CURRENT -- btw, any good ideas about maintenance of all these options? How do you discover any of these got obsolete?

The ROUTER kernel includes some ALTQ stuff, the DESKTOP kernel has the "sg" device, so I can use MakeMKV.

Packages are built with poudriere, using this config:

Are there any flags to prevent the build of clang (when building world) from including unwanted architectures?
For example, I only need x86 and x64, not ARM, AArch64, MIPS, Sparc, etc. But the build will include everything (which seems to take a large portion of total build time).
Put this into src.conf:
Code:
