[Qemu-devel] Gentoo & qemu & non-static build

[Qemu-devel] Gentoo & qemu & non-static build

[rutger]

Hi,

I cannot get qemu to build on Gentoo ~x86. Is has to do with the known
problem that alsa-lib is not build staticly, and therefore libsdl.a
cannot be linked to, and therefore qemu cannot be build staticly also.

Output in that case:

...
gcc  -static -Wl,-T,/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386-vl.ld  -o qemu-fast vl.o osdep.o block.o monitor.o ide.o ne2000.o pckbd.o vga.o sb16.o dma.o oss.o fdc.o mc146818rtc.o serial.o i8259.o i8254.o pc.o gdbstub.o sdl.o libqemu.a  -lm -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl -lasound -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -laa -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -laa -lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lncurses -lutil

The problem on the qemu side is that I cannot get qemu to build
non-staticly. I tried './configure --no-static', which gives 'static
build no' (but then again, that's no different from when I remove the
--no-static), but the build command still fails. It ends different
however, with:

...
gcc -Wall -O2 -g -fomit-frame-pointer  -g -static -Wl,-T,/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386.ld i386 ../dyngen.c   -o ../dyngen
gcc: i386: No such file or directory
make: *** [../dyngen] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386'


Anyone any idea on how to build qemu dynamically?

Regards,
Rutger.

Try using this command instead:

gcc  -static -Wl,-T,/home/rutger/download/qemu-0.5.3/i386-vl.ld  -o qemu-fast vl.o osdep.o block.o monitor.o ide.o ne2000.o pckbd.o vga.o sb16.o dma.o oss.o fdc.o mc146818rtc.o serial.o i8259.o i8254.o pc.o gdbstub.o sdl.o libqemu.a -shared -lm -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl -lasound -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -laa -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -laa -lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lncurses -lutil

It worked for me.

Doing a "gcc -shared [..]" ans then the rest as per the original gcc
invocation worked for me, as well

Works for me too, thanks!

Now trying to let qemu use /dev/tun (default of udev) instead of
/dev/net/tun ...

[Qemu-devel] SIGSEGV on start of qemu-fast under gentoo

[Grzegorz Kulewski]

Hi,

I managed to compile QEMU under gentoo using qemu-cvs-1.3.ebuild with this 
command at the end:

gcc  -static -Wl,-T,../i386-vl.ld  -o qemu-fast vl.o osdep.o block.o 
monitor.o ide.o ne2000.o pckbd.o vga.o sb16.o dma.o oss.o fdc.o 
mc146818rtc.o serial.o i8259.o i8254.o pc.o gdbstub.o sdl.o libqemu.a 
-shared -lm -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread -lm -ldl 
-lasound -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lXext -laa -L/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib 
-laa -lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -lncurses -lutil

And I get immendiate SIGSEGV when trying to launch such created qemu-fast.

What I am doing wrong???


thanks in advance

Grzegorz

[Fabrice Bellard]

Hi,

It is totally _wrong_ to compile qemu-fast with a -shared option. If I 
used a static build there was certainly a reason :-) So you should 
better not compile qemu-fast if your distribution has not the right 
packages, as it it said in the (new) QEMU FAQ...

Fabrice.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] /dev/tun support (was: Re: Gentoo & qemu & non-static build)

With this patch against current CVS if qemu can't open /dev/net/tun, it will
try /dev/tun.  Documentation and error strings adjusted.
