This assumes if you're building for Linux that your kernel source is in /usr/src/linux. Otherwise, please read on. Building OpenAFS on UNIX and Linux ---------------------------------- A Configuring Uncompress the source into a directory of your choice. A directory in afs space is also valid. In the directory that you uncompressed the source in, you will only have an src/ directory. 1. Pick a system to build for, and note its default AFS sys_name. A directory will be automatically created for binaries to be written into with this name when you build. alpha_dux40, alpha_dux50, alpha_dux51 (client does not work) alpha_linux22, alpha_linux24, alpha_linux26 alpha_nbsd15, alpha_nbsd16 amd64_fbsd_53 (client does not work) amd64_linux24, amd64_linux26 amd64_nbsd20, amd64_nbsd30, amd64_nbsd40 arm_linux24, arm_linux26 hp_ux11i, hp_ux110, hp_ux1123 (See notes below for information on getting missing header) hp_ux102 (Client port possible, but db servers and utilities work) i386_fbsd_50, i386_fbsd_51, i386_fbsd_52, i386_fbsd_53, i386_fbsd_60, i386_fbsd_61, i386_fbsd_62, i386_fbsd_70, i386_fbsd_80, i386_fbsd_81, i386_fbsd_90, amd64_fbsd_50, amd64_fbsd_51, amd64_fbsd_52, amd64_fbsd_53, amd64_fbsd_60, amd64_fbsd_61, amd64_fbsd_62, amd64_fbsd_70, amd64_fbsd_80, amd64_fbsd_81, amd64_fbsd_90 (client may work on 70 and later) i386_linux22, i386_linux24, i386_linux26 i386_nbsd15, i386_nbsd16, i386_nbsd20, i386_nbsd21, i386_nbsd30, i386_nbsd40 i386_obsd31, i386_obsd32, i386_obsd33, i386_obsd34, i386_obsd35, i386_obsd36, i386_obsd37, i386_obsd38, i386_obsd39, i386_obsd40, i386_obsd41 i386_umlinux22, i386_umlinux24, i386_umlinux26 ia64_hpux1122, ia64_hpux1123 ia64_linux24, ia64_linux26 parisc_linux24 ppc64_linux24, ppc64_linux26 ppc_darwin_12, ppc_darwin_13, ppc_darwin_14, ppc_darwin_60, ppc_darwin_70, ppc_darwin_80, ppc_darwin_90 ppc_linux22, ppc_linux24, ppc_linux26 ppc_nbsd16, ppc_nbsd20 rs_aix42, rs_aix51, rs_aix52, rs_aix53, rs_aix61 s390_linux22, s390_linux24, s390_linux26 s390x_linux24, s390x_linux26 sgi_62, sgi_63, sgi_64, sgi_65 (file server not tested) sparc64_linux22, sparc64_linux24, sparc64_linux26 sparc_linux22, sparc_linux24 sun4_413 (No client support, no fileserver support, db servers only) sun4x_56, sun4x_57, sun4x_58, sun4x_59, sun4x_510, sun4x_511 (logging UFS not supported for mixed-use partitions containing client cache) sunx86_57, sunx86_58, sunx86_59, sunx86_510, sunx86_511 (logging UFS not supported for mixed-use partitions containing client cache) x86_darwin_80, x86_darwin90 2. Using configure in the top level directory, configure for your AFS system type, providing the necessary flags: % ./configure --with-afs-sysname=sun4x_58 --enable-transarc-paths If you do not have the "configure" script, or if you modify the source files, you can re-create it by running regen.sh. You will need autoconf to do this. For some systems you need also provide the path in which your kernel headers for your configured kernel can be found. See the system-specific Notes sections below for details. If you want to build only the user-space programs and servers and not the kernel module, specify the --disable-kernel-module option on the ./configure command line. All binaries, except for the 'fileserver' and 'volserver' executables and their 'da' variants, are stripped of their symbol table information by default. To enable a debugging build, specify the --enable-debug option on the ./configure command line. This builds with debugging compiler options and disables stripping of binaries. You can also use different combinations of --enable-debug and --enable (or --disable)-strip-binaries for finer control. One can, for example, compile binaries for debug and strip them anyway. Alternatively, one can compile without debug and force the binaries to not be stripped. Note that these combinations are not necessarily useful. The binaries noted above, 'fileserver' and 'volserver' and their 'da' variants, will never be stripped, regardless of any options given to configure. There are two modes for directory path handling: "Transarc mode" and "default mode": - In Transarc mode, we retain compatibility with Transarc/IBM AFS tools by putting client configuaration files in /usr/vice/etc, and server files in /usr/afs under the traditional directory layout. - In default mode, files are located in standardized locations, usually under $(prefix), which defaults to /usr/local. - Client programs, libraries, and related files always go in standard directories under $(prefix). This rule covers things that would go into $(bindir), $(includedir), $(libdir), $(mandir), and $(sbindir). - Other files get located in the following places: Directory Transarc Mode Default Mode ============ ========================= ============================== viceetcdir /usr/vice/etc $(sysconfdir)/openafs afssrvdir /usr/afs/bin (servers) $(libexecdir)/openafs afsconfdir /usr/afs/etc $(sysconfdir)/openafs/server afslocaldir /usr/afs/local $(localstatedir)/openafs afsdbdir /usr/afs/db $(localstatedir)/openafs/db afslogdir /usr/afs/logs $(localstatedir)/openafs/logs afsbosconfig $(afslocaldir)/BosConfig $(afsconfdir)/BosConfig afsbosserver $(afsbindir)/bosserver $(sbindir)/bosserver In default mode, you can change all of the variables named above that do not start with "afs" by passing the flags with the same name to configure. For example, if you want to install the server binaries in /usr/local/lib/openafs instead of /usr/local/libexec/openafs, pass the --libexecdir=/usr/local/lib flag to configure. For additional options, see section H below. B Building 1. Now, you can build OpenAFS. % make 2. Install your build using either "make install" to install into the current system (you will need to be root, and files will be placed as appropriate for Transarc or standard paths), "make install DESTDIR=/some/path" to install into an alternate directory tree, or if you configured with --enable-transarc-paths make dest to create a complete binary tree in the dest directory under the directory named for the sys_name you built for, e.g. sun4x_57/dest or i386_linux22/dest 3. As appropriate you can clean up or, if you're using Linux, build for another kernel version. To clean up: % make clean C Problems If you have a problem building this source, you may want to visit http://www.openafs.org/ to see if any problems have been reported or to find out how to get more help. Mailing lists have been set up to help; More details can be found on the openafs.org site. D Linux Notes With current Linux versions, the /lib/modules/`uname -r`/source symlink will be used to locate the kernel headers, but you will need to have the headers and build system for your kernel installed in order to build the kernel module. These are usually found in a separate package from the kernel, often called something like linux-headers-. For older Linux systems, you may also need to provide the path in which your kernel headers for your configured kernel can be found. This should be the path of the directory containing a child directory named "include". So if your version file were /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h you would run: % ./configure --with-afs-sysname=i386_linux24 \ --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux Currently you can build for only one Linux kernel at a time, and the version is extracted from the kernel headers in the root you specify. To build for another Linux kernel version, determine the sysname for the system type as defined in step A1 for the other kernel version and then run: % ./configure --with-afs-sysname= \ --with-linux-kernel-headers=/usr/src/linux-2.2.19-i686 % make Your build tree will now include an additional kernel module for your additional kernel headers. Be aware that if the kernel version string which UTS_RELEASE is defined to in include/linux/version.h matches the last kernel you built for, the previous kernel module will be overwritten. E HP-UX 11.0 Notes HP-UX 11.0 requires a header called vfs_vm.h which HP has provided on their web site. Go to http://www.hp.com/dspp, choose Software downloads from the side menu, and select Software: HP operating systems and then Operating systems: HP-UX from the select boxes. The last select box will have an option for downloading vfs_vm.h. F OpenBSD Notes If you need to run regen.sh to make the configure script, you should first install autoconf-2.59, then setenv AUTOCONF_VERSION 2.59. You need kernel source installed to build OpenAFS. Use the --with-bsd-kernel-headers= configure option if your kernel source is not in /usr/src/sys. src/packaging/OpenBSD/buildpkg.sh will make a tar file for installing the client. There is no server package, but I am told that "make install" will put server binaries in /usr/afs. Your kernel may panic when you try to shutdown after running the OpenAFS client. To prevent this, change the "dangling vnode" panic in sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c to a printf and build a new kernel. You can't run arla and OpenAFS at the same time. G FreeBSD Notes The FreeBSD client may now work; It is tested on 7.0 and on current as of the commit date. You need kernel source installed to build OpenAFS. Use the --with-bsd-kernel-headers= configure option if your kernel source is not in /usr/src/sys. You also need access to your kernel build directory for the opt_global.h include file. Use the --with-bsd-kernel-build= configure option if your kernel build is not GENERIC in the standard place. If /usr/src/sys/${CPUARCH}/compile/GENERIC does not point to /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. the OBJECT_MODE environment variable is either unset or set to "32". Verify this before doing configure and make. For example, assuming ksh/bash: % export OBJECT_MODE=32 To build aklog (in order to be able to get tokens from your Kerberos v5 ticket), you will need Kerberos libraries. On AIX 6.1, the IBM Kerberos v5 libraries are in the packages krb5.client.rte and krb5.toolkit.adt on the Expansion Pack. I Other configure options AFS has a ton of other optional features that must be enabled using configure options. Here is a summary: --enable-bigendian --enable-littleendian These configure options are normally not required and should not be given. They're only needed if the OpenAFS build system cannot determine the endianness of your system, in which case configure will abort and say to use one of these options. --enable-bitmap-later Speeds the startup of the fileserver by deferring reading volume bitmaps until necessary. Demand attach is a better solution to the same problem. --enable-checking Enable compiler warnings when building with GCC and turn compiler warnings into errors so that new warnings will cause compilation failures. If you are developing patches to contribute to OpenAFS, please build OpenAFS with this flag enabled. Warning-free code is a requirement for all new submissions to OpenAFS. --enable-debug --enable-debug-kernel --enable-debug-lwp --enable-debug-pam Compile the userspace code (for --enable-debug) or the code named by the option with debugging information. If --enable-debug is given, also do not strip binaries when installing them. --enable-linux-syscall-probing OpenAFS now uses keyrings to manage PAGs by default on Linux, which does not require hooking into the system call table. On older versions of Linux without keyring support, OpenAFS uses groups to manage PAGs and probes for the system call table to hook into it to preserve that group information. Normally, which method to use is detected automatically, and if keyring support is present, support for system call table probing is not compiled in. Use this configure option to force inclusion of the system call table probing code even if the kernel appears to support keyrings. --enable-namei-fileserver Forces the namei fileserver on platforms (like Solaris 8 and 9) where the inode fileserver is the default. --enable-pthreaded-ubik Enable the threaded version of Ubik and install the threaded versions of Ubik servers. See README.PTHREADED_UBIK for more information. (EXPERIMENTAL) --enable-redhat-buildsys Enable compilation of the kernel module for the Red Hat build system kernel. Use this configure flag when building kernel modules for Red Hat Linux systems. --enable-reduced-depends Try to minimize the shared library dependencies encoded in the binaries. This omits from the link line all the libraries included solely because the Kerberos libraries depend on them and instead links the programs only against libraries whose APIs are called directly. This will only work with shared Kerberos libraries and will only work on platforms where shared libraries properly encode their own dependencies (such as Linux). It is intended primarily for building packages for Linux distributions to avoid encoding unnecessary shared library dependencies that make shared library migrations more difficult. If none of the above made any sense to you, don't bother with this flag. --enable-supergroups Enables support of nested groups in the ptserver. WARNING: Once you make use of this option by nesting one group inside another, the resulting PTS database cannot be correctly and safely used by a ptserver built without this option. If some of your ptservers were built with this option and some without this option, you will probably corrupt your PTS database. --enable-tivoli-tsm Build with the Tivoli TSM API libraries for butc support of the Tivoli backup system. --enable-transarc-paths As discussed in A2 above, build for the traditional paths used by the Transarc and IBM AFS distributions instead of the more typical open source /usr/local paths. Passing this option to configure and then running make dest will generate, in the dest directory, the set of files and directory layout matching a Transarc or IBM AFS tape distribution. --enable-warnings Enable compilation warnings when built with GCC. This is similar to --enable-checking, but new warnings will only be displayed, not cause a build failure. It's also possible to disable some standard features. None of these options are normally needed, but they may be useful in unusual circumstances: --disable-kernel-module Even if kernel headers are found, do not attempt to build the kernel module. On Linux, if you provide this flag, you'll also need to provide --with-afs-sysname, since OpenAFS cannot determine the correct sysname automatically without the kernel headers. --disable-optimize --disable-optimize-kernel --disable-optimize-lwp --disable-optimize-pam Disable optimization for the given portion of the OpenAFS code. Usually used either for debugging to avoid code optimization making it harder to use a debugger, or to work around bugs in the compiler optimizers or in the OpenAFS code. --disable-pam Do not build the AFS PAM modules. Normally building them is harmless, but the PAM modules that come with OpenAFS are deprecated and should not be used unless you're still using the OpenAFS kaserver (which is itself deprecated and should not be used). --disable-strip-binaries Disable stripping of binaries on installation. You probably want to use --enable-debug instead of this flag to also inclusion of debugging information. --disable-unix-sockets Disable use of UNIX domain sockets for fssync. A TCP connection to localhost will be used instead. You may need to pass one or more of the following options to specify paths and locations of files needed by the OpenAFS build process or additional information required by the build process: --with-afs-sysname=SYSNAME Specifies the AFS sysname of the target system is SYSNAME. Normally this is determined automatically from the build architecture plus additional information (such as, on Linux, from the kernel headers). The SYSNAME should be one of the options listed in A2. --with-krb5[=DIR] --with-krb5-include=DIR --with-krb5-lib=DIR Normally, OpenAFS will automatically build with Kerberos support if Kerberos is found during the build. If your Kerberos libraries are in an unusual location, however, you may need to pass one or more of these flags. --with-krb5 forces building with Kerberos support if given and will cause configure to fail if Kerberos is not found. You may optionally specify the root path to your Kerberos installation as an argument to --with-krb5. If you have a krb5-config script, it's used to find the flags to build with Kerberos. If you have no krb5-config script, you can specify the location to the include files with --with-krb5-include and the libraries with --with-krb5-lib. You may need to do this if Autoconf can't figure out whether to use lib, lib32, or lib64 on your platform. --with-linux-kernel-build=PATH --with-linux-kernel-headers=PATH --with-bsd-kernel-build=PATH --with-bsd-kernel-headers=PATH Specifies the path to the kernel headers and build system. See the information above for Linux and *BSD systems. --with-linux-kernel-packaging Tells the OpenAFS kernel module build system to use conventions appropriate for building modules to include in Linux kernel module packages. Primarily, this renames the kernel module to openafs.ko rather than libafs-.ko, which is easier to handle in Linux distribution init scripts. --with-html-xsl=PATH --with-xslt-processor=PROGRAM Specifies the XSLT style sheet and XSLT processor to use to convert the DocBook manuals into HTML. There are also some environment variables that you can set to control aspects of the build. They can be set either on the configure command line (preferred) or in the environment. CC The C compiler to use. Be aware that this is overridden on some architectures that require a specific compiler be used to build the kernel module. CFLAGS Additional flags to pass to the C compiler. CPP The C preprocessor to use. Defaults to cpp if found, otherwise $CC -E. CPPFLAGS Additional flags to pass to the C preprocessor or compiler. This is where to put -I options to add paths to the include file search. FUSE_CFLAGS Compiler flags required for building applications that use FUSE. FUSE_LIBS Libraries required for linking applications that use FUSE. KRB5_CONFIG To specify a particular krb5-config script to use, either set the KRB5_CONFIG environment variable or pass it to configure like: ./configure KRB5_CONFIG=/path/to/krb5-config To not use krb5-config and force library probing even if there is a krb5-config script on your path, set KRB5_CONFIG to a nonexistent path: ./configure KRB5_CONFIG=/nonexistent LDFLAGS Additional flags to pass to the linker. This is where to put -L options to add paths to the library search. LIBS Additional libraries to link all userspace programs with. PKG_CONFIG The path to the pkg-config utility. Currently, this is only used to locate the flags for building the FUSE version of afsd. YACC The yacc implementation to use. Defaults to bison, byacc, or yacc, whichever is found first. YFLAGS Additional flags to pass to yacc.
