How to compile wine under Solaris. Part II

See Part I

Beginning with wine 0.9.57 “-lsunmath” is needed. You can get the libsunmath library from blastwave, for example:

LIBS      = -lsocket -lnsl -lintl -L/opt/csw/lib -lsunmath

This is the error you might get if the library is not specified in dlls/wined3d/Makefile:

Undefined                       first referenced
symbol                             in file
isinf                               surface_base.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to wined3d.dll.so
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
winegcc: gcc failed

gam_server, Solaris and high CPU load

Since upgrading to s11b83a I noticed that gam_server processes eat significant amount of CPU cycles. So I decided to make some investigations.

# uname -a
SunOS xeon 5.11 snv_83 i86pc i386 i86pc
# pkginfo -l SUNWgamin
PKGINST:  SUNWgamin
NAME:  Library providing the FAM File Alteration Monitor API
CATEGORY:  GNOME2,application,JDS4
ARCH:  i386
VERSION:  0.1.9,REV=110.0.4.2008.01.28.02.48

# fgrep SUNWgamin /var/sadm/install/contents

/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/_gamin.so f ...
/usr/lib/python2.4/vendor-packages/gamin.py f ...

No manuals, no config files.

# strings  /usr/lib/gam_server
. . .
/.gaminrc
/etc/gamin/mandatory_gaminrc
/etc/gamin/gaminrc

From Gamin project page:

Gamin is a file and directory monitoring system defined to be a subset of the FAM (File Alteration Monitor) system. This is a service provided by a library which allows to detect when a file or a directory has been modified.

This is the description of the config file: Gamin config

Now, how to fix the problem

  1. Create /etc/gamin directory:
    # mkdir /etc/gamin
  2. Create file /etc/gamin/gaminrc. It may contain the following lines (this is just an example, you can set your own polling intervals):
    fsset nfs poll 15
fsset ufs poll 15
fsset lofs poll 15
fsset zfs poll 15
  3. Restart gam_server (let me know if there is a better way):
    # pkill  gam_server;  rm -rf /tmp/gam_*

Voila! That should be done in all zones.

Update 2008-07-07 @00:06:24: i did not see this behaviour in snv_92. However, do not install snv_92 because of otehr bugs. Try snv_93.

How to compile wine under Solaris. Part I

Unfortunately, wine can not be compiled under Solaris “as is”. Some tricks are needed.

    If you do not needed LDAP and 16bit support, turn them off:

  • ./configure --without-ldap --disable-win16
  • To get rid of the following error:
    In file included from object.h:30,
from fd.c:76:

    Change server/fd.c:

  • Compile with /usr/sfw/bin/gcc not /opt/csw/bin/gcc. You can successfully compile wine with CSWgcc but if you run wine or winecfg you will get the following error (at least under Solaris 11 builds83a-86):
    $ winecfg
