Hi!
I am having one hell of a time getting the entropy pool in oskit to
integrate with gnumach. I've spent months(!) on this without making
any progress. I really need some help.
The output of a GNUMach compile is at the end of this message.
I can build, eg, kernel-ide+ethernet_tulip without problems. It's
only when I add "+entropy_random" that I get multiple defs of
osenv_sleep, etc.
I have spent a lot of quality time with the 'nm' command on builds of
oskit with and without the entropy pool changes and I have scrutinized
the output of kernel-ide+entropy_random+ethernet_tulip
vs. kernel-ide+ethernet_tulip to try to figure out exactly where the
dup syms are comming from.
Note that the error below mentions liboskit_dev.a . This puzzles me
since I have made lots of changes to liboskit_linux_dev.a but few, if
any, to liboskit_dev.a . I am surprised that liboskit_dev would be
affected. Also, 'nm -a -S -td' output is the same for liboskit_dev.a
both on oskit builds with and without my entropy changes.
Also, does anyone know what is meant by the 'size' of a function
symbol? Ie, "/usr/bin/ld: Warning: size of symbol `osenv_wakeup'
changed from 26 to 42 in
/usr/local/lib/oskit/../liboskit_dev.a(sleep.o)". What does the size
mean? Reading the ELF spec hasn't helped me with this, nor has
googling, nor has asking in #hurd at random times.
Also, what is the correct way for a host OS to override just a proper
subset of the functions in an oskit library?
I would very much appreciate any and all thoughts on this. At this
point, I don't care if it's the most crazy suggestion ever. I need
some external input, even the most hazy of ideas.
At this point I'm removing the guts of my oskit changes a little at a
time to see what finally fixes the dup syms. This is slow going and
I'm not convinced it will even converge. I have, of course, grep'ed
the living daylights out of my stuff and examined my oskit patch very,
very carefully, but that's not helped. I fear that something
generated by the linux driver make process may be causing this and
that I don't understand that mechanism fully. Or maybe it's in some
of the glue code that's generated (although I've examined the
generated code and it looks innocent).
I can go on and on here, but I'll stop now (finally!). You can
replicate the problem by building OSKit/Mach from the CVS repositories
on savannah and including '+entropy_random' in the GNUMach make line.
Thanks,
Derek
