Comment (by НКВД):
Hi all.
I have uploaded a xmail package (with [http://linux.die.net/man/2/eventfd
eventfd(2)] support fixed) for ar71xx platform, built using Barrier
Breaker (14.07)
[http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07/ar71xx/generic
/OpenWrt-SDK-ar71xx-for-linux-
x86_64-gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2.tar.bz2 SDK]. See
[/attachment/ticket/16679/xmail_1.27-1_ar71xx.ipk third attachment].
Additionally, I have uploaded a new patch (see
[/attachment/ticket/16679/xmail_eventfd_fixes.patch fifth attachment]),
which includes the patch at
[/attachment/ticket/16679/xmail_fix_eventfd_initialization.patch first
attachment] (still required due to uClibc shipped with Barrier Breaker SDK
having broken eventfd flags for MIPS architecture) plus some Makefile
fixes (to avoid eventfd support misdetection, as xmail linux-specific
makefile - `Makefile.lnx` - tries to detect eventfd support by checking
for `/usr/include/sys/eventfd.h`, which is a host-specific header, instead
of checking for the SDK-specific `sys/eventfd.h` header - located at
`staging_dir/toolchain-mips_34kc_gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2/include/`
- ).
To build [/browser/packages/mail/xmail xmail] package with the Barrier
Breaker (14.07)
[http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07/ar71xx/generic
/OpenWrt-SDK-ar71xx-for-linux-
x86_64-gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2.tar.bz2 SDK] for ar71xx platform, do
the following steps:
{{{
# · Download the BB 14.07 SDK tarball for ar71xx
(http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07/ar71xx/generic
/OpenWrt-SDK-ar71xx-for-linux-
x86_64-gcc-4.8-linaro_uClibc-0.9.33.2.tar.bz2).
# · Uncompress it.
# · cd to the SDK folder.
# · Download openwrt's xmail package definition from SVN (putting it in
the package/ folder):
svn co svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/packages/mail/xmail package/xmail
# · Download the patch at fifth attachment (named
"xmail_eventfd_fixes.patch"):
wget --no-check-certificate https://dev.openwrt.org/raw-
attachment/ticket/16679/xmail_eventfd_fixes.patch
# · Apply the patch:
cat xmail_eventfd_fixes.patch | patch -N -p0
# Note: After applying this patch, you should have two new patches at
package/xmail/patches/ folder:
# 060-fix_eventfd_initialization.patch
# 070-fix_eventfd_support_detection.patch
# · Build the package.
