OK super: can you say that at the start of https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/blob/master/hadrian/doc/make.md?

And point to https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/blob/master/hadrian/doc/make.md from the more comprehensive page.

So in the end they both refer to each other

Hello,

A quick note about that 'make.md' document: it's meant as a quick reference/cheatsheet (hence the _very_ lightweight format) for people familiar with the make build system. Hadrian's README [1] is a better place to start from in general and in fact answers or points to documents that answer some of your questions. I would perhaps recommend that you (and others) wander through that document and any other doc that seems relevant to your interests/workflow (e.g testsuite.md, user-settings.md in your case)

Hadrian is however currently lacking some knobs that are needed to support some of the things you're asking about. None of this implies a lot of work and they're all on my TODO. I will certainly make sure to post an update once this is taken care of, in addition to augmenting the relevant documents of course. For instance, we don't have a 'validate' rule at the moment, but we've now got all the pieces we need to write it.

Once I get around to adding those knobs, I'll make sure that all your questions are answered in the documentation.

Thanks for your initial feedback on this document!

    You’ve written a helpful wiki page describing how to use Hadrian

    https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/blob/master/hadrian/doc/make.md

    Could you document where build-products live?  I often look at
    .hi files.

    Could you add

      * How to do the equivalent of “sh validate”
      * When validating, how to do things like this:

    GhcStage1HcOpts += -DDEBUG -O

    GhcStage2HcOpts += -Wwarn -ticky

    GhcLibHcOpts +=  -ticky -Wwarn

    BUILD_PROF_LIBS = NO

    SplitObjs       = YES

    HADDOCK_DOCS = NO

    BUILD_SPHINX_HTML = NO

    BUILD_SPHINX_PDF  = NO

      * After modifying the source code, how to make stage1 compiler
        (only). In ‘make’ it is

    $ cd compiler; make 1

      * After modifying the source code, build the stage2 compiler
        (only).  In ‘make’ it is

    $ cd compiler; make 2

    Perhaps you say build –freeze1?

      * In the testsuite, how to use the stage1 compiler

    $ make stage=1 TEST=T2543

      * In nofib, how to build one benchmark, with extra flags,
        perhaps even with the stage1 compiler

    $ make stage=1 EXTRA_HC_OPTS=”-ticky -ddump-simpl -ddump-stg”

    Thanks!

    Simon
