<para>This article describes building an internal &fbus.ap;.
The <link xlink:href="http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/user/cperciva/freebsd-update-build/">freebsd-update-server</link>
is written by &a.cperciva.email;, Security Officer Emeritus of &os;.
For users that think it is convenient to update their systems
against an official update server, building their own &fbus.ap; may
help to extend its functionality by supporting manually-tweaked
&os; releases or by providing a local mirror that will allow faster
updates for a number of machines.</para>

<title>Introduction</title>
<para>Experienced users or administrators are often responsible for
several machines or environments. They understand the difficult
demands and challenges of maintaining such an infrastructure.
Running a &fbus.ap; makes it easier to deploy security and software
patches to selected test machines before rolling them out to
production. It also means a number of systems can be updated from the
local network rather than a potentially slower Internet connection.
This article outlines the steps involved in creating an internal
&fbus.ap;.</para>

<sect1 xml:id="prerequisites">
<title>Prerequisites</title>
<para>To build an internal &fbus.ap; some requirements should be
met.</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>A running &os; system.</para>
<note>
<para>At a minimum, updates require building on a &os;
release greater than or equal to the target release
version for distribution.</para>
</note>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>A user account with at least 4&nbsp;GB of available space.
This will allow the creation of updates for 7.1 and 7.2, but the
exact space requirements may change from version to version.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>An &man.ssh.1; account on a remote machine to upload
distributed updates.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>A web server, like <link xlink:href="&url.books.handbook;/network-apache.html">Apache</link>,
with over half of the space required for the build. For instance,
test builds for 7.1 and 7.2 consume a total amount of 4&nbsp;GB,
and the webserver space needed to distribute these updates is
2.6&nbsp;GB.</para>
</listitem>

&man.sh.1;.</para>

Security Officer Emeritus of &os;, "the <link xlink:href="http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/user/cperciva/freebsd-update-build/">freebsd-update-server</link>
build code needs to identify timestamps which are stored in files so
that they can be ignored when comparing builds to determine which
files need to be updated. This timestamp-finding works by doing two
builds 400 days apart and comparing the results."</para>

<para>In the <link xlink:href="http://security.freebsd.org/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-09:12.bind.asc">security brief</link>,
this advisory is called <literal>SA-09:12.bind</literal>. After
downloading the file, it is required to rename the file to an
appropriate patch level. It is suggested to keep this consistent with
official &os; patch levels, but its name may be freely chosen.
For this build, let us follow the currently established practice of
&os; and call this <literal>p7</literal>. Rename the file:</para>
<informalexample>
<screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>cd /usr/local/freebsd-update-server/patches/7.1-RELEASE/; mv bind.patch 7-SA-09:12.bind </userinput></screen>
</informalexample>
<note>
<para>When running a patch level build, it is assumed that previous
patches are in place. When a patch build is run, it will run all
patches contained in the patch directory.</para>
<para>There can be custom patches added to any build. Use the number
zero, or any other number.</para>
</note>
<warning>
<para>It is up to the administrator of the &fbus.ap; to take
appropriate measures to verify the authenticity of every
patch.</para>
</warning>
<para>At this point, a <emphasis>diff</emphasis> is ready to be built.
The software checks first to see if a
<filename>scripts/init.sh</filename> has been run on the respective
release prior to running the diff build.</para>
<informalexample>
<screen>&prompt.root; <userinput>cd /usr/local/freebsd-update-server</userinput>
&prompt.root; <userinput>sh scripts/diff.sh amd64 7.1-RELEASE 7</userinput></screen>
</informalexample>
<para>What follows is a sample of a <emphasis>differential</emphasis>
build run.</para>

<title>Tips</title>
<!-- These are nice tips, but there are only a few of them and they need a
bit of rewording to make sense. I'd like to see something that
explains at least the following for every tip:
* Why is this tip necessary? What is the original problem it tries
to solve?
* How to install the changes of the tip, preferably in a <procedure>
element, with clearly separated steps.
* How to check that the changes of the tip had a measurable and
noticeable effect.
We can do this in a followup commit. It doesn't have to be completed
*before* we commit this to CVS. -->
<!-- thank you, i just learned these in the process, and thought I would share. They are "tips" and not necessary, so I do see your point, and I would suggest maybe even renaming the section to something more appropriate. Nothing really comes to mind now, though. -->
<!-- this tip will allow you to maintain a custom release and custom kernel, and update it like any other binary update -->

<para>If a custom release is built using the native
<command>make release</command> <link xlink:href="&url.articles.releng;/release-build.html">procedure</link>,
<application>freebsd-update-server</application> code will work
from your release. As an example, a release without ports or
documentation can be built by clearing functionality pertaining
to documentation subroutines <function> findextradocs ()</function>,
<function>addextradocs ()</function> and altering the download
location in <function>fetchiso ()</function>, respectively, in
<filename>scripts/build.subr</filename>. As a last step, change
the &man.sha256.1; hash in <filename>build.conf</filename> under
your respective release and architecture and you are ready to build
off your custom release.</para>
