My laptop is currently running main-n245489-15b82e00a164; after updating
sources to n245498-096a84721670, I am performing a source-based update.
A simialr update on my build machine (which is headless, and thus does
not use anything related to X11) was successful.
The laptop is set up to rebuild x11/nvidia-driver when the kernel
is updated.
The buildkernel step on it fails with:
...
awk -f /usr/src/sys/conf/kmod_syms.awk nvidia-modeset.ko export_syms | xargs -J% objcopy % nvidia-modeset.ko
===> lib (all)
===> lib/libglvnd (all)
...
===> x11/driver (all)
===> x11/extension (all)
===> doc (all)
make[6]: "/usr/share/mk/bsd.man.mk" line 53: Malformed conditional (${MK_MANSPLITPKG} == "no")
make[6]: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
make[6]: stopped in /common/S4/obj/usr/src/amd64.amd64/sys/CANARY/common/ports/x11/nvidia-driver/work/NVIDIA-FreeBSD-x86_64-460.56/doc
*** Error code 1
Stop.
On reviewing the list of files changed in 15b82e00a164..096a84721670, I
note a couple of promising-looking candidates:
share/mk/bsd.opts.mk | 1 +
share/mk/src.opts.mk | 1 -
Reviewing the commit log for share/mk/bsd.opts.mk, I see that the most
recent entry is:
| commit 6827435548d257c672f934db5c6ff01012d96995
| Author: Jung-uk Kim <jkim at FreeBSD.org>

| pkgbase: Fix building out-of-tree manual pages
|
| c7e6cb9e08d6 introduced MK_MANSPLITPKG but it was not available for
| building out-of-tree manual pages. For example, x11/nvidia-driver fails
| with the following error:
|
| ===> doc (all)
| make[3]: "/usr/share/mk/bsd.man.mk" line 53: Malformed conditional (${MK_MANSPLITPKG} == "no")
| make[3]: Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue
|
| Move the definition from src.opts.mk to bsd.opts.mk to make it visible.
which looks ... apropos.
Indeed, it appears that the n245494-6827435548d2 change was intended to
fix the issue that I am now just seeing.
But I readily confess that I have neither familairity nor expertise
with share/mk/* (and that delving into it reminds me of "You are
in a mazy twist of passages, all different")
So... help? What do I need to do to be able to build the kernel now?
(E.g., if I need to just skip building x11/nvidia-driver once, get
everything installed, then build "normally" (with x11/nvidia-driver)
-- that's fine; I just need a clue.)
Thanks.
Peace,
david
