3. As appropriate you can clean up or, if you're using Linux, build for
another kernel version.
"include". So if your version file were
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h you would run:
- % ./configure --with-afs-sysname=i386_linux24 \
+ % ./configure --with-afs-sysname=i386_linux26 \
--with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux
Currently you can build for only one Linux kernel at a time, and the
then run:
% ./configure --with-afs-sysname=<sysname> \
- --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-2.2.19-i686
+ --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-3.19-i686
% make
Your build tree will now include an additional kernel module for your
last kernel you built for, the previous kernel module will be
overwritten.
+ The Linux 2.4 series (and older) are no longer supported. The OpenAFS 1.6
+ series of releases are the last ones supporting those old kernels and in
+ particular their LinuxThreads.

E HP-UX 11.0 Notes
HP-UX 11.0 requires a header called vfs_vm.h which HP has provided on
G FreeBSD Notes
- The FreeBSD client may now work; It is tested on 7.0 and on current
- as of the commit date.
+ The FreeBSD client supports FreeBSD 8.x and later, but does not receive
+ regular testing on versions older than FreeBSD 9.x at this time. Only
+ the amd64 and i386 architectures are supported, but it should not be
+ hard to port to other processors if they are already supported under
+ another operating system.
You need kernel source installed to build OpenAFS. Use the
--with-bsd-kernel-headers= configure option if your kernel source is
/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC you may need to resolve that and retry the
build.
- There is no server package, but I am told that "make install" will put
- server binaries in /usr/afs.
-
- You can't run arla and OpenAFS at the same time.

H AIX notes
Make sure that your default build environment is 32bit, ie.
by the option with debugging information. If --enable-debug is
given, also do not strip binaries when installing them.
+ --enable-linux-d_splice_alias-extra-iput
+ Work around a kernel memory leak present in a few Linux kernels.
+ The only affected mainline kernels are 3.17 to 3.17.2, but this
+ switch will also be required should a distribution backport commit
+ 908790fa3b779d37365e6b28e3aa0f6e833020c3 or commit
+ 95ad5c291313b66a98a44dc92b57e0b37c1dd589 but not the fix in commit
+ 51486b900ee92856b977eacfc5bfbe6565028070 from the linux-stable repo
+ (git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git) or
+ the corresponding changes on other branches. This is impossible to
+ detect automatically. Without this switch, the openafs module will
+ build and work even with affected kernels. But it will leak kernel
+ memory, leading to performance degradation and eventually system
+ failure due to memory exhaustion.

OpenAFS now uses keyrings to manage PAGs by default on Linux, which
does not require hooking into the system call table. On older
