make jobserver #1260

Description

@bdrewery

Investigate writing a make-compatible jobserver for sharing tokens down into port builds. It should be relatively easy to implement the server. Then we set the MAKEFLAGS env to contain the jobserver information.

The jobserver client in test/runtest.sh could help here for testing/understanding.

  • gmake has 2 modes:
    • --jobserver-auth=fifo:${/path/to/fifo}
    • -jobserver-auth=${fd}
  • bmake:
    • -J ${fd}
