[uClinux-dev] uClibc upgrade?

2011-02-02 Thread Dave Rensberger
would think this is a big deal since a lot of embedded Linux systems these days use sqlite3. Is there any somewhat painless way to upgrade the uClibc yourself (I know this question has been asked on this forum before, but I never saw any place where it was answered)? Thanks, --Dave Rensberger

[uClinux-dev] Moving to a newer version of busybox

2010-08-05 Thread Dave Rensberger
How difficult is it to drop a newer version of Busybox into uClibc-dist? I assume it's more difficult than a typical user app because of the interaction with Busybox's own Kconfig system. Is there a straightforward formula for doing this? Thanks --Dave

[uClinux-dev] POSIX semaphores in uClibc

2010-06-26 Thread Dave Rensberger
I would like to use POSIX semaphores (sem_open(), sem_wait(), sem_post(), etc.) in a uClinux/uClibc system. In the 20100315 distribution, the uClibc version is still old enough that these functions are not implemented (well, they are, but they simply return an errno indicating function does

2010-03-30 Thread Dave Rensberger
I did resolve this. The solution (in my case anyway) was to point uClibc to the uClinux-dist/include directory rather than any of the include directories within the kernel tree. On 25/03/2010 04:04, Dave Rensberger wrote: After I manually added the 'asm' link, the uClibc build stopped

Greg, Thanks for the info about the evolution of the kernel directory structure. I'll try the Soekris/net4801 setup. If it's a more-or-less standard x86 architecture, I think it should just be able to use it's uClibc config as a starting point and go from there. When you regression test that

Re: [uClinux-dev] multiple arch with MMU/noMMU

2009-09-04 Thread Dave Rensberger
uClinux-dist supports anything (MMU and !MMU). The kernel in the latest uClinux-dist's is as close to the kernel.org eleases as possible. uClinux-dist even lets you add your own kernel easily. For example, take the penguinppc kernel, extract it to a directory at in the dists top level dir

[uClinux-dev] Issues building samba with uClibc in snapgear

2009-01-19 Thread Dave Rensberger
For those who are interested, I did get samba to work with uClibc on x86 snapgear. Just dropping in the samba module from the snapgear-20080711 release into a 3.5 snapgear build produces binaries that will run without segfaulting. I didn't really test smbd/nmbd, but at a superficial level,

[uClinux-dev] Re: Latest good version of Snapgear

2009-01-12 Thread Dave Rensberger
The 20080711 package is a code snapshot. It is much newer than 3.5.0. (And IIRC it contains a newer samba package). Try it, it should be very close to the uClinux-dist-20080808 release. Though I suspect that the samba in there doesn't work on non-MMU systems. Greg, Thanks for your reply. To

2009-01-11 Thread Dave Rensberger
Hi, I've been trying to build a working samba and have not been very successful so far. The problem is that all of the samba executables (well, smbd and smbmount, anyway) segfault shortly after they're invoked. GDB indicates that the segfault is happening in line 113 of ./lib/iconv.c, in

Sorry if this has already been covered, but what should be considered the latest stable snapgear release? The web page says it's the 3.5.0 release, but the ftp site contains a newer one called snapgear-20080711. Thanks --Dave ___

[uClinux-dev] Has anyone successfully used Samba in Snapgear 3.5?

Hi, I posted a similar message a few days ago, but it was formatted with no line returns, so it may have been a little bit annoying to read. Has anyone out there successfully built and used the Samba in Snapgear 3.5? I am building for an i386 platform, and the build works fine, but all of

[uClinux-dev] Problem running samba apps built from Snapgear 3.5

2008-02-13 Thread Dave Rensberger
Hi, I'm trying to get samba built from the snapgear 3.5 package running on an x86 platform with uClibc. It builds just fine (as long as I don't try to do the shared object build), but when I run any of the executables (smbd, nmbd, or smbmount), I get a core dump immediately after startup.
