Hi, I'm attempting to get OpenAFS compiled on Gentoo, kernel 2.6.15, on an
UltraSparc. My problem *seems* to be that Gentoo doesn't officially
support sparc64 by default (and doesn't have 64-bit mode in the compiler
they supply), and openafs doesn't support linux 2.6 with ordinary 'sparc'.
the first problem is indicated by

Now, in gentoo they have two ebuilds: one named openafs, and one named
openafs-kernel which appears to just "make only_libafs". If I let the
gentoo build system to its own configure, I end up with an error about a
missing "param.sparc_linux26". If I let your autoconf system run
naturally, I end up with a successful configuration that is using
sparc64_linux26. When building "only_libafs" it actually compiles and
gives me the kernel module. However when doing a normal build, it dies
with the compile error above.
Any suggestions on what I can/could/should do?
This is ugly, but it _may_ work...
- configure --with-afs-sysname=sparc_linux24 --disable-kernel-module
- build and install user-mode tools
- make distclean
- configure --with-afs-sysname=sparc64_linux26
- make only_libafs
The result will be 32-bit user mode utilities and a kernel module for
whatever kernel you have. If your kernel is indeed a sparc64 kernel,
then the module will probably even work.
I believe a 32-bit afsd will work with a 64-bit kernel, but I'm not
positive. The other tools will definitely work, though of course that's
not much help if afsd doesn't work.
Another option would be to contribute a sparc_linux26 port. Given that
both sparc_linux24 and sparc64_linux26 exist, this will probably not be
much harder than writing the param.h file and making a few changes in each
of src/cf/osconf.m4, src/{libafs,libuafs}/MakefileProto.LINUX.in, and maybe
the top-level Makefile.in.
Good luck...
