Paul Smith 11444fb001 [SV 62654] Support GNU Make on z/OS
Original patches provided by Igor Todorovski <itodorov@ca.ibm.com>
Reworked by Paul Smith <psmith@gnu.org>.
Thanks to IBM for providing a test system.

* NEWS: Announce support.
* AUTHORS: Ditto.
* README.zOS: Provide details on building GNU Make on z/OS.
* build.sh (get_mk_var): z/OS sh has a strange bug which causes it to
generate extra lines of output: rework the function to print output
as we compute it instead of collecting it into a variable, which
works around this bug.
* src/makeint.h: Declare MK_OS_ZOS if we're building for z/OS.
* src/arscan.c: Don't include <ar.h> on z/OS.
* src/job.c: We can't change environ in ASCII mode on z/OS.
* src/main.c: Ditto.  Also we can't use pselect() on z/OS.
* src/posixos.c: pselect() seems to hang on z/OS: don't use it.
* tests/run_make_tests.pl: Handle different exit codes on z/OS.
* tests/test_driver.pl: Preserve some special z/OS env.vars.
Add special checks to output comparisons when on z/OS.
* tests/scripts/features/archives: Don't validate names.  Don't
try to compile empty files as IBM compilers complain.
* tests/scripts/features/shell_assignment: Fix octal value of #.
* tests/scripts/features/temp_stdin: Don't print "term".
* tests/scripts/functions/shell: Handle shell exit codes.
* tests/scripts/targets/ONESHELL: Ditto.
* tests/scripts/targets/POSIX: sh -x prints differently.
* tests/scripts/variables/SHELL: Ditto.

GNU Make has been ported to z/OS, tested on z/OS V2R4.
PREREQUISITES
-------------
Building GNU Make requires certain tools be installed on your z/OS system.
These tools can be downloaded from: https://github.com/ZOSOpenTools
For detailed instructions on how to set up these tools, visit
https://zosopentools.github.io/meta/#/Guides/Pre-req
You will need curl, tar, and gzip to download and unpack the GNU Make release
package, but presumably you've already worked this out if you're reading this
document!
You will need the IBM C/C++ compiler. You can download a web deliverable
add-on feature to your XL C/C++ compiler here:
https://www-40.ibm.com/servers/resourcelink/svc00100.nsf/pages/xlCC++V241ForZOsV24
Alternatively, you can install and manage C/C++ for Open Enterprise Languages
on z/OS using RedHat OpenShift Container Platform and IBM Z and Cloud
Modernization Stack.
GNU Make has a dependency on the ZOSLIB library, which is documented here:
https://zosopentools.github.io/meta/#/Guides/Zoslib.
To obtain the latest release of zoslib, you can download it from here:
https://github.com/ZOSOpenTools/zoslibport/releases.
BUILDING
--------
If you are trying to build from a checked-out Git workspace, see README.git.
Before building GNU Make, you will need to ensure that the following
environment variables are set, to turn on z/OS enhanced ASCII support:
export _BPXK_AUTOCVT=ON
export _CEE_RUNOPTS="$_CEE_RUNOPTS FILETAG(AUTOCVT,AUTOTAG) POSIX(ON)"
export _TAG_REDIR_ERR=txt
export _TAG_REDIR_IN=txt
export _TAG_REDIR_OUT=txt
To ensure proper functioning of xlclang, set the following environment
variables before building:
export _CC_CCMODE=1
export _C89_CCMODE=1
export _CXX_CCMODE=1
Set PATH_TO_ZOSLIB to the location of your zoslib installation; e.g.:
PATH_TO_ZOSLIB=$HOME/zopen/prod/zoslib
Invoke ./configure as follows:
./configure \
CC=xlclang \
CPPFLAGS="-DNSIG=42 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_OPEN_SYS_FILE_EXT=1 -D_AE_BIMODAL=1 -D_ENHANCED_ASCII_EXT=0xFFFFFFF -DZOSLIB_OVERRIDE_CLIB=1" \
CFLAGS="-qascii -std=gnu11 -qnocsect -qenum=int -I$PATH_TO_ZOSLIB/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L$PATH_TO_ZOSLIB/lib" \
LIBS="-lzoslib $PATH_TO_ZOSLIB/lib/CXXRT64.x"
If you have an instance of make already available you can build with:
make
If not, you can build with:
./build.sh
TESTING
-------
To run the regression tests you'll need to install Perl and enable it.
Then you can run:
./make check
INSTALLING
----------
Copy the "make" program to wherever you want it to be installed, on your PATH.
