[OpenAFS-devel] Re: Building OpenAFS on SmartOS

[Coy Hile]

I=92ve made some further progress here, building against master; I =
managed to get the LWP stuff to build, but I had to hack up =
src/lwp/Makefile to hard-code=20
=9764 rather than $(ASFLAGS) in the assembler line to create process.o; =
my attempts to get ASFLAGS set to =9764 if using gcc (and thus gas) have =
so far failed.

It appears to build the user land fine, but then gleefully errors out =
when attempting to build the kernel module, thusly:

Building directory: MODLOAD64

In src/libafs/Makefile, I see this;

KDEFS_64 =3D -xarch=3Damd64 -xmodel=3Dkernel

What does -xmodel=3Dkernel accomplish, and what=92s the relevant gccism =
there? I can=92t glean anything obvious from looking at, e.g., =
MakefileProto.LINUX.in

I=92ve pushed the first round of my changes to gerrit as:

Change-Id: Ief9026c36b4843f929e2fcf9ba05fa88618c9d98=94

 * [new branch]      HEAD -> refs/for/master/build-with-gcc-on-illumos

so any help fine-tuning this is welcome.  If somebody needs a SmartOS =
box to build on, I will spin up an internet-facing instance and create =
logins as needed.
