Hello All, I'm attempting to compile rsync on Solaris 10 x86 to include atime support.
I've managed to patch the source, and install gcc and the necessary other packages necessary to get as far as ./configure successfully (I'm afraid I'm more of a linux than a solaris guy). I'm unable to "make" the Makefile. Did some STFW'ing and have found several variations of this problem. Other mentions have included redirecting the output of this part of the code to stdout or a file instead of /dev/null but it looks like my Makefile includes this already: it redirects to rounding.out and cats that file after it fails. That is, this section of Makefile: ---------------- flist.o: rounding.h rounding.h: rounding.c rsync.h @for r in 0 1 3; do \ if $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) -o rounding -DEXTRA_ROUNDING=$$r -I. $(srcdir)/rounding.c >rounding.out 2>&1; then \ echo "#define EXTRA_ROUNDING $$r" >rounding.h; \ if test -f "$$HOME/build_farm/build_test.fns"; then \ echo "EXTRA_ROUNDING is $$r" >&2; \ fi; \ break; \ fi; \ done @rm -f rounding @if test -f rounding.h; then : ; else \ cat rounding.out 1>&2; \ echo "Failed to create rounding.h!" 1>&2; \ exit 1; \ fi @rm -f rounding.out ------------------- generates this output: ------------------- -bash-3.00# make In file included from /usr/include/sys/signal.h:34, from /usr/include/signal.h:26, from rsync.h:329, from rounding.c:20: /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:259: error: parse error before "ctid_t" /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:292: error: parse error before '}' token /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:294: error: parse error before '}' token /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:390: error: parse error before "ctid_t" /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:392: error: conflicting types for `__proc' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:261: error: previous declaration of `__proc' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:398: error: conflicting types for `__fault' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:267: error: previous declaration of `__fault' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:404: error: conflicting types for `__file' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:273: error: previous declaration of `__file' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:420: error: conflicting types for `__prof' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:287: error: previous declaration of `__prof' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:424: error: conflicting types for `__rctl' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:291: error: previous declaration of `__rctl' /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:426: error: parse error before '}' token /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:428: error: parse error before '}' token /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:432: error: parse error before "k_siginfo_t" /usr/include/sys/siginfo.h:437: error: parse error before '}' token In file included from /usr/include/signal.h:26, from rsync.h:329, from rounding.c:20: /usr/include/sys/signal.h:85: error: parse error before "siginfo_t" In file included from rsync.h:329, from rounding.c:20: /usr/include/signal.h:111: error: parse error before "siginfo_t" /usr/include/signal.h:113: error: parse error before "siginfo_t" Failed to create rounding.h! make: *** [rounding.h] Error 1 -bash-3.00# ---------------------------- That long "if" line that appears to be generating the rounding.h file seems to be failing but parsing exactly what it's supposed to be doing is beyond me. Is there a way I can recreate that step from the shell to see what it should be doing?
