472 The directory hierarchy prefix where built objects will be installed.
475 defaults to the empty string.

608 then all libraries and includes, and some of the build tools will still build
614 will only build the specified directory as was done historically.
617 it is necesarry to override

659 Builds under directory
661 are also influenced by defining one or more of the following symbols,
666 .Bl -tag -width ".Va -DNO_KERNELCONFIG"
667 .It Va LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP
668 Defines what interpreter the default loader program will have.
674 This creates the default link for
676 to the loader with that interpreter.
677 It also determines what interpreter is compiled into
680 If set, the build targets that clean parts of the object tree use the
686 If set, no object tree files are cleaned at all.
687 This is the default when
701 is set no kernel objects are cleaned either.
703 If set, the build process does not run the DTrace CTF conversion tools
706 If set, the build does not descend into the
708 subdirectory (i.e., manual pages, locale data files, timezone data files and
711 files will not be rebuild from their sources).
712 .It Va NO_KERNELCLEAN

733 documentation as part of the

758 This option should be used only when it is known that none of the bootstrap
759 needs changed and that no new directories have been connected to the build.
762 Builds under directory
764 are influenced by the following
767 .Bl -tag -width ".Va DOC_LANG"
769 If set, restricts the documentation build to the language subdirectories
770 specified as its content.
771 The default action is to build documentation for all languages.
776 and related targets are influenced by the following
779 .Bl -tag -width ".Va MAKE_JUST_KERNELS"
781 Pass the value of this variable to each
783 invocation used to build worlds and kernels.
784 This can be used to enable multiple jobs within a single architecture's build
785 while still building each architecture serially.
786 .It Va MAKE_JUST_KERNELS
787 Only build kernels for each supported architecture.
788 .It Va MAKE_JUST_WORLDS
789 Only build worlds for each supported architecture.

791 Only build kernels for each supported architecture.
792 .It Va WITHOUT_KERNELS
793 Only build worlds for each supported architecture.
794 .It Va UNIVERSE_TARGET
795 Execute the specified
797 target for each supported architecture instead of the default action of
798 building a world and one or more kernels.
799 This variable implies
800 .Va WITHOUT_KERNELS .
802 Only build the listed targets instead of each supported architecture.
804 In addition to the supported architectures, build the semi-supported
806 A semi-supported architecture has build support in the
808 tree, but receives significantly less testing and is generally for
809 fringe uses that do not have a wide appeal.
