Package: glusterfs Version: 3.5.2-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: debian-...@lists.debian.org Usertags: port-x32 ftbfs-x32
Hi! I'm afraid that glusterfs fails to build on new architectures. This is caused by deprecated #include <sysctl.h>, which compiles successfully on old architectures, but on new archs like x32, contains nothing but a #error with an explanatory message. The sysctl(2) syscall isn't used by glusterfs on Linux on runtime (it would spam syslog if called), so it's safe to remove its header. The attached patch does this. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (600, 'unstable'), (500, 'unreleased'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: x32 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.19.0-x32 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init)
Description: don't #include <sysctl.h> On Linux, the sysctl(2) syscall has been gone for ages. On most old architectures, it remains a stub that spams syslog on use attempts; on new archs even trying to #include its header results in a build failure. --- glusterfs-3.5.2.orig/xlators/mount/fuse/src/fuse-helpers.c +++ glusterfs-3.5.2/xlators/mount/fuse/src/fuse-helpers.c @@ -14,7 +14,7 @@ #include "fuse-bridge.h" #if defined(GF_SOLARIS_HOST_OS) #include <sys/procfs.h> -#else +#elif defined GF_BSD_HOST_OS || defined GF_DARWIN_HOST_OS #include <sys/sysctl.h> #endif
