41  
42            * --enable-kqueue - Use the superior kqueue(2) system call as
43              opposed to the default poll(2). This is currently only available
44 <            on FreeBSD 4.1 or higher.
44 >            on FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, and Mac OS X
45  
46            * --enable-devpoll - Enable the superior /dev/poll support on
47              Solaris. Linux /dev/poll is broken and will not work with this
# Line 53 | Line 53
53  
54            * --enable-poll - Use POSIX poll(2).
55  
56          * --enable-select - Use POSIX select(2).
57
56            Incidentally, the order of listing above is the order of auto-
57            detection in configure. So if you do have kqueue but wish to
58 <          enable select(2) instead (bad idea), you must use --enable-select.
58 >          enable poll(2) instead (bad idea), you must use --enable-poll.
59  
60 <          * --enable-openssl - Enable the openssl dependent crypto functions.
61 <            Required for the SSL Challenge controlled OPER feature, compressed
64 <            and/or SSL/TLS server links, as well as SSL/TLS client connections.
60 >          * --enable-openssl - Enable the LibreSSL/OpenSSL dependent TLS/crypto
61 >            functions.
62  
63              On systems where the configure script can automatically detect
64 <            OpenSSL, this option is not necessary. If configure cannot find
65 <            OpenSSL, you must specify a path with this option
64 >            LibreSSL or OpenSSL, this option is not necessary. If configure cannot
65 >            find LibreSSL or OpenSSL, you must specify a path with this option
66              (--enable-openssl=/path/to/openssl)
67  
68 +          * --enable-gnutls - Enable the GnuTLS dependent TLS/crypto functions.
69 +
70 +            Note that OpenSSL detection takes precedence over GnuTLS detection.
71 +            In case you have both OpenSSL and GnuTLS installed and want the ircd to
72 +            make use of GnuTLS, run ./configure wih the --disable-openssl switch.
73 +
74  
75         These are optional or have default values that may be overridden:
76  
77 <          * --enable-assert - Enable use of numerous debugging checks. This
78 <            should not be used on any production servers for maximum speed
79 <            so as to prevent cores from things that shouldn't normally happen.
77 >          * --enable-assert - Enable use of numerous debugging checks. This is
78 >            considered a developer-only feature and should not be used on any
79 >            production servers for maximum speed so as to prevent cores from
80 >            things that shouldn't normally happen.
81  
82            * --enable-debugging - Prepares Makefiles to compile the ircd sources
83              with proper settings that are required for debugging purposes.
84              This switch basically sets CFLAGS to "-g -O0".
85  
86 <          * --enable-halfops - Enable halfops (%, mode +h) usage. Halfops
87 <            are similar to plain ops, but can't kick/deop plain ops. Halfops
84 <            may or may not kick/deop other halfops depending on if (+p) is
85 <            set. Halfops may not set (+/-p).
86 >          * --enable-efence - Allows easy linking with the electric fence memory
87 >            debugger library.
88  
89  
90     3.  Run 'make'; this should build the ircd.

97                                  HOW TO GET HELP
98  
99 <   - Send Check or Money Order to... just kidding! You're on your own for
100 <     support. Try asking other ircd-hybrid admins on EFnet if you can't
101 <     fix it yourself. If you do fix anything, however, please send context
102 <     or unified diffs to bugs@ircd-hybrid.org so the fixes can be
103 <     incorporated into the next release of ircd-hybrid. If hybrid crashes
104 <     on you, PLEASE contact bugs@ircd-hybrid.org ASAP with a backtrace of
105 <     the core. The Hybrid team can't fix bugs if no one tells us about them!
106 <
105 <   - https://lists.ircd-hybrid.org/mailman/listinfo/hybrid
106 <     Here you can subscribe to a mailing list for general discussion of Hybrid.
