I read the UPDATING entry that accompanied r206082 and added WITH_CTF=yes
to
my kernel config, hoping to get CTF information in the kernel and all
modules.  No luck.
It appears that NO_CTF remains set to 1 inspite of the undef NO_CTF in
various .mk files
and ctfconvert never runs.

This is the output I get in my kernel build directory:
---snip---
# make -V NO_CTF -V WITH_CTF

yes

Can you also try a "makeoptions WITH_CTF=yes" in your KERNCONF

The above one is with WITH_CTF in my kernel config, but this was generated manually with cd /sys/i386/conf; config CONF; cd ../compile/CONF; make -V...

and see if the results are as expected?  How was r206082 tested?  I'm
trying to figure out the differences, if any, between your build setup and
mine.

I made a buildworld with and without WITH_CTF in src.conf to confirm that it works (no installkernel, as the world is known to be not useable with CTF), and I did a lot of tests by hand as above (config;make).

---snip---

I built the kernel with a "make -j16 buildkernel" in /usr/src.

How do you determine if ctfconvert is run or not?

I got rid of the @ in front of all the CTF commands in all the .mk files.  I
could see that NO_CTF was 1 and so the ctfconvert after || wouldn't
run.

Can it be that NO_CTF is somewhere, e.g. in src.conf or make.conf or in the environment of the shell? Did you do an installworld before? The installworld is maybe important, I do not have in mind if /ush/share/mk/ or SRC/share/mk is used and as such the NO_CTF which was before in /usr/share/mk/* could cause what you see.

[ -z "${CTFCONVERT}" -o -n "${NO_CTF}" ] || ${CTFCONVERT} ${CTFFLAGS} ${.TARGET}

[ -z "ctfconvert" -o -n "1" ] || ........

Do you see anything different if you remove all the @'s?

I did a "objdump -h *.o | grep SUNW_ctf" and I get a lot of ctf sections displayed. Adding the @ in front was the last action I did, before that every case was working correctly.

If you expect to see
ctfconvert lines in the build output: this will not be the case, no matter
if you enable it or not. With the current way of handling it, I'm not aware
of a way how to print the command when ctfconvert is really executed (we can
maybe add an echo which prints out something, but the question is if this is
worth the effort).

You can run objdump -f <objectfile> and have a look if the .SUNW_ctf section
is there to determine if CTF stuff was inserted or not.

I tried this:
# ctfdump /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/kernel
/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC/kernel does not contain .SUNW_ctf data

That's a lot of output (that I get when I do it on my kernel which was build with makeoptions WITH_CTF=yes), if you just want to know if there is or is not ctf data in the kernel, the objdump (with -h, and not -f as I wrote above) gives just one line if ctf date is present.

Bye,
Alexander.
