7 | This is a list of the status of GNU Emacs on various machines and systems. |
8 | ||
9 | For each system and machine, we give the configuration name you should | |
10 | pass to the `configure' script to prepare to build Emacs for that | |
11 | system/machine. | |
12 | ||
13 | The `configure' script uses the configuration name to decide which | |
14 | machine and operating system description files `src/config.h' should | |
15 | include. The machine description files are all in `src/m', and have | |
16 | names similar to, but not identical to, the machine names used in | |
17 | configuration names. The operating system files are all in `src/s', | |
18 | and are named similarly. See the `configure' script if you need to | |
19 | know which configuration names use which machine and operating system | |
20 | description files. | |
21 | ||
22 | If you add support for a new configuration, add a section to this | |
23 | file, and then edit the `configure' script to tell it which | |
24 | configuration name(s) should select your new machine description and | |
25 | system description files. | |

27 | Some obsolete platforms are unsupported beginning with Emacs 23.1, see |
28 | the full list at the end of this file. | |

31 | Here are the configurations Emacs is intended to work with, with the | |
32 | corresponding configuration names. You can postpend version numbers | |
33 | to operating system names (i.e. sunos4.1) or architecture names (i.e. | |
34 | hppa1.1). If you leave out the version number, the `configure' script | |
35 | will configure Emacs for the latest version it knows about. | |

538af1cd EZ |
39 | DEC C compiler version 5.9 (DEC C V5.9-005 on Digital UNIX V4.0f) |
40 | is reported to produce bogus binaries of Emacs 21.2 when the | |
41 | command-line switches "-O4 -arch ev6 -tune ev6" are used. Using | |
42 | just -O4 produces a good executable. | |
43 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
44 | For 4.0 revision 564, and 4.0A and 4.0B, Emacs 20 seems to work |
45 | with no special configuration options. However, if you use GCC as | |
46 | your compiler, you will need version 2.8.1 or later, as older | |
47 | versions fail to build with a message "Invalid dimension for the | |
48 | charset-ID 160". | |
49 | ||
50 | Note that the X11 libraries on GNU/Linux systems for the Alpha are | |
51 | said to have bugs that prevent Emacs from working with X (as of | |
52 | November 1995). Recent releases work (July 2000). | |

59 | Apple PowerPC Macintosh running GNU/Linux |
60 | ||
61 | There are special considerations for a variety of this system which | |
723718ff | 62 | is known as the ``Yellow Dog [GNU/]Linux'': Emacs may crash during |
9ff069a5 EZ |
63 | dumping. To solve this, edit the header file src/m/macppc.h in the |
64 | Emacs distribution, and remove the "#if 0" and "#endif" directives | |
65 | which surround the following block near the end of the file: | |
66 | ||
178b60d7 | 67 | #if 0 /* This breaks things on PPC GNU/Linux except for Yellowdog, |
9ff069a5 EZ |
68 | even with identical GCC, as, ld. Let's take it out until we |
69 | know what's really going on here. */ | |
70 | /* GCC 2.95 and newer on GNU/Linux PPC changed the load address to | |
71 | 0x10000000. */ | |
72 | #if defined __linux__ | |
73 | #if __GNUC__ > 2 || (__GNUC__ == 2 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 95) | |
74 | #define DATA_SEG_BITS 0x10000000 | |
75 | #endif | |
76 | #endif | |
77 | #endif /* 0 */ | |
78 | ||
79 | After that, reconfigure and rebuild Emacs. It should now build | |
80 | successfully. | |

82 | Cubix QBx/386 (i386-cubix-sysv) |
83 | ||
84 | Changes merged in 19.1. Systems before 2/A/0 may fail to compile etags.c | |
85 | due to a compiler bug. | |

87 | DECstation (mips-dec-ultrix or mips-dec-osf) |
88 | ||
89 | This machine is the older Mips-based DECstation. | |
90 | Emacs should now work on the Alpha CPU. | |
91 | ||
92 | 19.25 works on Ultrix 4.2. The 19.26 pretest was reported to work | |
93 | on Ultrix 4.2a and on 4.4. | |
94 | ||
95 | One user reported 19.25 did not work at all with --with-x-toolkit | |
96 | using X11R5 patch level 10, but worked ok with X11R5 pl26. | |
97 | ||
98 | See under Ultrix for problems using X windows on Ultrix. | |
99 | Note that this is a MIPS machine. | |
100 | ||
101 | For Ultrix versions 4.1 or earlier, you may need to define | |
102 | SYSTEM_MALLOC in `src/m/pmax.h', because XvmsAlloc.o in libX11.a seems | |
103 | to insist on defining malloc itself. | |
104 | ||
105 | For Ultrix versions prior to 4.0, you may need to delete | |
106 | the definition of START_FILES from `src/m/pmax.h'. | |
107 | ||

114 | Tested on 167 board with SVR3V7, no X, cc, gnucc and gcc. | |
115 | Reports say it works with X too. | |
116 | ||
117 | The installation script chooses the compiler itself. gnucc is | |
118 | preferred. | |

126 | Changes are partially merged in version 18, but certainly require | |
127 | more work. Let us know if you get this working, and we'll give it a | |
128 | real configuration name. | |

130 | Harris Power PC (powerpc-harris-powerunix) |
131 | ||
132 | Patches have been merged in 19.31. | |
133 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
134 | Hewlett-Packard 9000 series 200 or 300 (m68k-hp-bsd or m68k-hp-hpux |
135 | or m68k-hp-netbsd) | |
136 | ||
137 | These machines are 68000-series CPUs running HP/UX | |
138 | (a derivative of sysV with some BSD features) or BSD 4.3 ported by Utah. | |
139 | The operating system suffix determines which system Emacs is built for. | |
140 | ||
141 | Series 200 HPUX runs Emacs only if it has the "HP/UX upgrade". | |
142 | ||
143 | Version 19 works under BSD. The 19.26 pretest was reported | |
144 | to work on HPUX 9. 19.31 works on HPUX 10.01, but there are | |
145 | some problems on 10.10 which have not been resolved. Emacs 19.34 | |
146 | works on HPUX 10.20 provided you compile with GCC; with the HP C | |
147 | compiler, subprocess commands do not work. | |
c60ee5e7 | 148 | |
f4b79972 EZ |
149 | On HPUX 9, Emacs sometimes crashes with SIGBUS or SIGSEGV after you |
150 | delete a frame. We think this is due to a bug in the X libraries | |
151 | provided by HP. With the alternative X libraries in | |
152 | /usr/contrib/mitX11R5/lib, the problem does not happen. | |
153 | ||
154 | If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional | |
155 | "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX | |
156 | do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
157 | exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |
158 | ||
159 | Note that HP has used two incompatible assembler syntaxes, | |
160 | and has recently changed the format of C function frames. | |
161 | `src/crt0.c' and `src/alloca.s' have been conditionalised for the new | |
162 | assembler and new function-entry sequence. You may need to define | |
163 | OLD_HP_ASSEMBLER if you are using an older hpux version. If you | |
164 | have an official (bought from HP) series 300 machine you have | |
165 | the new assembler. Kernels that are 5.+ or later have new | |
166 | assembler. A Series 200 that has been upgraded to a 68010 | |
167 | processor and a 5.+ kernel has the new compiler. | |
168 | ||
169 | Define C_SWITCH_MACHINE to be +X to make a version of Emacs that | |
170 | runs on both 68010 and 68020 based HP/UX's. | |
171 | ||
172 | Define HPUX_68010 if you are using the new assembler, for | |
173 | a system that has a 68010 without a 68881. This is to say, | |
174 | a s200 (upgraded) or s310. | |
175 | ||
176 | Define the symbol HPUX_NET if you have the optional network features | |
177 | that include the `netunam' system call. This is referred to as | |
178 | Network Services (NS/9000) in HP literature. | |
179 | ||
180 | HP 9000 series 500: not supported. | |
181 | ||
182 | The series 500 has a seriously incompatible memory architecture | |
183 | which relocates data in memory during execution of a program, | |
184 | and support for it would be difficult to implement. | |
185 | ||
186 | HP 9000 series 700 or 800 (Spectrum) (hppa1.0-hp-hpux or hppa1.1-hp-hpux | |
187 | or ...hpux9shr, or ...-nextstep) | |
188 | ||
189 | Use hppa1.1 for the 700 series and hppa1.0 for the 800 | |
190 | series machines. (Emacs may not actually care which one you use.) | |
191 | ||
192 | Support for NextSTEP was added in 19.31. | |
193 | ||
194 | Emacs 20 may work on HPUX 10. You need patch PHSS_6202 to install | |
195 | the Xaw and Xmu libraries. On HPUX 10.20 you may need to compile with GCC; | |
196 | when Emacs was compiled with HP's C compiler, HP92453-01 A.10.32.03, | |
197 | the subprocess features failed to work. | |
198 | ||
199 | 19.26 is believed to work on HPUX 9 provided you compile with GCC. | |
200 | As of version 19.16, Emacs was reported to build (using GCC) and run | |
201 | on HP 9000/700 series machines running HP/UX versions 8.07 and 9.01. | |
202 | The HP compiler is known to fail on some versions if you use +O3, | |
203 | but it may work with lower optimization levels. | |
204 | ||
205 | Use hppa1.1-hp-hpux9shr to use shared libraries on HPUX version 9. | |
206 | You may need to create the X libraries libXaw.a and libXmu.a from | |
207 | the MIT X distribute, and you may need to edit src/Makefile's | |
208 | definition of LIBXT to look like this: | |
209 | ||
210 | LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu -lXt $(LIBXTR6) -lXext | |
211 | ||
212 | Some people report trouble using the GNU memory allocator under | |
213 | HP/UX version 9. The problems often manifest as lots of ^@'s in the | |
214 | buffer. | |
c60ee5e7 | 215 | |
f4b79972 EZ |
216 | We are told that these problems go away if you obtain the latest |
217 | patches for the HP/UX C compiler. James J Dempsey | |
218 | <jjd@spserv.bbn.com> says that this set of versions works for him: | |
219 | /bin/cc: | |
220 | HP92453-01 A.09.28 HP C Compiler | |
221 | /lib/ccom: | |
222 | HP92453-01 A.09.28 HP C Compiler | |
223 | HP-UX SLLIC/OPTIMIZER HP-UX.09.00.23 02/18/93 | |
224 | Ucode Code Generator - HP-UX.09.00.23.5 (patch) 2/18/93 | |
225 | ||
226 | For 700 series machines, the HP-UX patch needed is known as | |
227 | PHSS_2653. (Perhaps for 800 series machines as well; we don't | |
228 | know.) If you are on the Internet, you should be able to obtain | |
229 | this patch by using telnet to access the machine | |
230 | support.mayfield.hp.com and logging in as "hpslreg" and following | |
231 | the instructions there. Or you may be able to use this | |
232 | web site: | |
233 | ||
234 | HP Patch Server: http://support.mayfield.hp.com/patches/html/patches.html | |
235 | HP Support Line: http://support.mayfield.hp.com | |
236 | ||
237 | Please do not ask FSF for further support on this. If you have any | |
238 | trouble obtaining the patch, contact HP Software Support. | |
239 | ||
240 | If your buffer fills up with nulls (^@) at some point, it could well | |
241 | be that problem. That problem does not happen when people use GCC | |
242 | to compile Emacs. On the other hand, the HP compiler version 9.34 | |
243 | was reported to work for the 19.26 pretest. 9.65 was also reported to work. | |
244 | ||
245 | If you turn on the DSUSP character (delayed suspend), | |
246 | Emacs 19.26 does not know how to turn it off on HPUX. | |
247 | You need to turn it off manually. | |
248 | ||
249 | If you are running HP/UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional | |
250 | "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP/UX | |
251 | do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
252 | exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |

254 | IBM PS/2 (i386-ibm-aix1.1 or i386-ibm-aix1.2) |
255 | ||
256 | Changes merged in version 19. You may need to copy | |
257 | /usr/lib/samples/hft/hftctl.c to the Emacs src directory. | |
258 | ||
259 | i386-ibm-aix1.1 may not work with certain new X window managers, and | |
260 | may be suboptimal. | |
261 | ||
262 | IBM RS/6000 (rs6000-ibm-aix*) | |
263 | ||
264 | Emacs 19.26 is believed to work; its pretest was tested. | |
265 | ||
266 | Compiling with the system's `cc' and CFLAGS containing `-O5' might | |
267 | fail because libXbsd isn't found. This is a compiler bug; | |
268 | re-configure Emacs so that it isn't compiled with `-O5'. | |
269 | ||
a9f66ecb EZ |
270 | On AIX 4.3.x and 4.4, compiling with /bin/c89 fails because it |
271 | treats certain warnings as errors. Use `cc' instead. | |
272 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
273 | At last report, Emacs didn't run well on terminals. Informed |
274 | persons say that the tty VMIN and VTIME settings have been | |
275 | corrupted; if you have a fix, please send it to us. | |
276 | ||
277 | Compiling with -O using the IBM compiler has been known | |
278 | to make Emacs work incorrectly. It's reported that on | |
279 | AIX 3.2.5 with an IBM compiler earlier than 1.03.00.14, | |
280 | cc -O fails for some files. You need to install any | |
281 | PTF containing APAR #IX42810 to bring the compiler to | |
282 | the 1.03.00.14 level to allow optimized compiles. | |
283 | ||
284 | There are reports that IBM compiler versions earlier than 1.03.00.02 | |
285 | fail even without -O. However, another report said that compiler | |
286 | version 1.02.01.00 did work, on AIX 3.2.4, with Emacs 19.31. | |
287 | ||
288 | As of 19.11, if you strip the Emacs executable, it ceases to work. | |
289 | ||
290 | If you are using AIX 3.2.3, you may get a core dump when loading | |
291 | ange-ftp. You may be able to fix the problem by defining LIBS_TERMCAP | |
292 | as -ltermcap -lcurses. Please tell us if this fails to work. | |
293 | ||
294 | If anyone can fix the above problems, or confirm that they don't happen | |
295 | with certain versions of various programs, we would appreciate it. | |

297 | IBM System/390 running GNU/Linux (s390-*-linux-gnu) |
298 | ||

302 | Integrated Solutions `Optimum V' (m68k-isi-bsd4.2 or -bsd4.3) |
303 | ||
304 | 18.52 said to work on some sort of ISI machine. | |
305 | Version 18.45 worked (running on a Optimum V (VME bus, 68020) | |
306 | BSD 4.2 (3.05e) system). 18.42 is reported to work on | |
307 | a Qbus 68010 system. Has not been tried on `WorkStation' `Cluster | |
308 | Compute Node' `Cluster WorkStation' or `Server Node' (Love the | |
c60ee5e7 | 309 | StudLYCaps) |
f4b79972 EZ |
310 | |
311 | Compilation with -O is rumored to break something. | |
312 | ||
313 | On recent system versions, you may need to undefine the macro UMAX | |
314 | in `lib-src/loadst.c' and `src/getpagesize.h'. They stupidly defined this | |
315 | in a system header file, which confuses Emacs (which thinks that UMAX | |
316 | indicates the Umax operating system). | |
317 | ||
f3041af1 | 318 | Intel 386 (i386-*-bsdi2, i386-*-freebsd, i386-*-linux-gnu, |

326 | In the above configurations, * means that the manufacturer's name | |
327 | you specify does not matter, and you can use any name you like | |
328 | (but it should not contain any dashes or stars). | |
329 | ||
330 | When using the ISC configurations, be sure to specify the isc | |
331 | version number - for example, if you're running ISC 3.0, use | |
332 | i386-unknown-isc3.0 as your configuration name. | |
f4b79972 | 333 | Use i386-*-linux-gnu for GNU/Linux systems; Emacs runs as of version 19.26. |
bf247b6e | 334 | Use i386-*-cygwin for Cygwin; Emacs builds as of version 22.1, in both X11 |
c60ee5e7 | 335 | and non-X11 modes. (The Cygwin site has source and binaries for 21.2.) |
f4b79972 EZ |
336 | Use i386-intsys-sysv for Integrated Solutions 386 machines. |
337 | It may also be correct for Microport systems. | |
f4b79972 EZ |
338 | |
339 | On GNU/Linux systems, Emacs 19.23 was said to work properly with libc | |
340 | version 4.5.21, but not with 4.5.19. If your system uses QMAGIC | |
341 | for the executable format, you must edit config.h to define LINUX_QMAGIC. | |
342 | ||
343 | On GNU/Linux, configure may fail to put these definitions in config.h: | |
344 | ||
345 | #define HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY | |
346 | #define HAVE_MKDIR | |
347 | #define HAVE_RMDIR | |
348 | #define HAVE_XSCREENNUMBEROFSCREEN | |
349 | ||
350 | To work around the problem, add those definitions by hand. | |
351 | It is possible that this problem happens only with X11R6. | |
352 | Newer system versions have fixed it. | |
353 | ||
354 | The 19.26 pretest was reported to work on SVR4.3 and on Freebsd. | |
355 | ||
356 | 19.29 is reported to crash when using Motif on Solaris 2.5. | |
357 | The reasons are not yet known. | |
358 | ||
359 | Use i386-*-bsdiN for BSDI BSD/OS version N; Emacs runs as of version 19.23. | |
360 | In some system versions, `make' is broken; use GNU make instead. | |
361 | Shell bugs in version 1.0 of BSD/OS cause configure | |
362 | to do the wrong thing with --with-x-toolkit; the workaround is to edit | |
363 | configure to run another shell such as bash. | |
364 | ||
365 | For System V release 3, use i386-*-sysv3. | |
366 | For System V release 4, use i386-*-sysv4. | |
367 | For System V release 4.2, use i386-*-sysv4.2. | |

369 | If you are using SCO Unix, see notes at end under SCO. |

371 | On 386bsd, NetBSD and FreeBSD, at one time, it was necessary to use | |
372 | GNU make, not the system's make. Assuming it's installed as gmake, | |
373 | do `gmake install MAKE=gmake'. However, more recently it is | |
374 | reported that using the system Make on NetBSD 1.3.1 works ok. | |
375 | ||
376 | If you are using System V release 4.2, you may find that `cc -E' | |
377 | puts spurious spaces in `src/xmakefile'. If that happens, | |
378 | specify CPP=/lib/cpp as an option when you run make. | |
379 | There is no problem if you compile with GCC. | |

381 | Note that use of Linux with GCC 2.4 and the DLL 4.4 libraries |
382 | requires the experimental "net 2" network patches (no relation to | |
383 | Berkeley Net 2). There is a report that (some version of) Linux | |
384 | requires including `/usr/src/linux/include/linux' in buffer.c | |
385 | but no coherent explanation of why that might be so. If it is so, | |
386 | in current versions of Linux, something else should probably be changed. | |
387 | ||
388 | Some sysV.3 systems seem to have bugs in `opendir'; | |
389 | for them, alter `config.h' to define NONSYSTEM_DIR_LIBRARY | |
390 | and undefine SYSV_SYSTEM_DIR. | |
391 | ||
392 | If you use optimization on V.3, you may need the option -W2,'-y 0' | |
393 | to prevent certain faulty optimization. | |
394 | ||
395 | On 386/ix, to link with shared libraries, add #define USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES | |
396 | to config.h. | |
397 | ||
398 | On SCO, there are problems in regexp matching when Emacs is compiled | |
399 | with the system compiler. The compiler version is "Microsoft C | |
400 | version 6", SCO 4.2.0h Dev Sys Maintenance Supplement 01/06/93; | |
401 | Quick C Compiler Version 1.00.46 (Beta). The solution is to compile | |
402 | with GCC. | |
403 | ||
404 | On ISC systems (2.02 and more recent), don't try to use the versions | |
405 | of X that come with the system; use XFree86 instead. | |
406 | ||
407 | There is no consistency in the handling of certain system header files | |
408 | on V.3. | |
409 | ||
410 | Some versions have sys/sioctl.h, and require it in sysdep.c. | |
411 | But some versions do not have sys/sioctl.h. | |
412 | For a given version of the system, this may depend on whether you have | |
413 | X Windows or TCP/IP. Define or undefine NO_SIOCTL_H in config.h | |
414 | according to whether you have the file. | |
415 | ||
416 | Likewise, some versions have been known to need sys/ttold.h, sys/stream.h, | |
417 | and sys/ptem.h included in sysdep.c. If your system has these files, | |
418 | try defining NEED_PTEM_H in config.h if you have trouble without it. | |
419 | ||
420 | You may find that adding -I/usr/X/include or -I/usr/netinclude or both | |
421 | to CFLAGS avoids compilation errors on certain systems. | |
422 | ||
423 | Some versions convince sysdep.c to try to use `struct tchars' | |
424 | but define `struct tc' instead; add `#define tchars tc' | |
425 | to config.h to solve this problem. | |

430 | and m68k-sgi-iris3.6 for system version 3.6. | |
431 | Note that the 3030 is the same as the Iris 2500 Turbo. | |

435 | Emacs 21.3 is reported to work on IRIX 6.5.x. |
436 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
437 | You can build a 64-bit executable (with larger maximum buffer size) |
438 | on Irix 6.5 by specifying the 64-bit ABI using the `-64' compiler | |
439 | flag or otherwise (see cc(1)). This may work on earlier Irix 6 | |
440 | systems if you edit src/s/irix6-0.h following irix6-5.h. | |
441 | ||
442 | If compiling with GCC on Irix 6 yields an error "conflicting types | |
443 | for `initstate'", install GCC 2.95 or a newer version, and this | |
444 | problem should go away. It is possible that this problem results | |
445 | from upgrading the operating system without reinstalling GCC; so you | |
446 | could also try reinstalling the same version of GCC, and telling us | |
447 | whether that fixes the problem. | |

449 | Mips (mips-mips-riscos, mips-mips-riscos4.0, or mips-mips-bsd) |
450 | ||
451 | The C compiler on Riscos 4.51 dumps core trying to optimize | |
452 | parts of Emacs. Try without optimization or try GCC. | |
453 | ||
454 | Meanwhile, the linker on that system returns success even if | |
455 | there are undefined symbols; as a result, configure gets the | |
456 | wrong answers to various questions. No work-around is known | |
457 | except to edit src/config.h by hand to indicate which functions | |
458 | don't exist. | |
459 | ||
460 | Use mips-mips-riscos4.0 for RISCOS version 4. | |
461 | Use mips-mips-bsd with the BSD world. | |
462 | ||
463 | Note that the proper configuration names for DECstations are | |
464 | mips-dec-ultrix and mips-dec-osf. | |
465 | ||
466 | If you are compiling with GCC, then you must run fixincludes; | |
467 | the alternative of using -traditional won't work because | |
468 | the definition of SIGN_EXTEND_CHAR uses the keyword `signed'. | |
469 | ||
470 | If the SYSV world is the default, then you probably need the following | |
471 | line in etc/Makefile: | |
472 | ||
473 | CFLAGS= -g -systype bsd43 | |
474 | ||
475 | Some operating systems on MIPS machines give SIGTRAP for division by | |
476 | zero instead of the usual signals. The only real solution is to fix | |
477 | the system to give a proper signal. | |
478 | ||
479 | In the meantime, you can change init_data in data.c if you wish. | |
480 | Change it to handle SIGTRAP as well as SIGFPE. But this will have a | |
481 | great disadvantage: you will not be able to run Emacs under a | |
482 | debugger. I think crashing on division by zero is a lesser problem. | |
483 | ||
484 | dsg@mitre.org reported needing to use --x-libraries=/bsd43/usr/lib | |
485 | on a riscos4bsd site. But it is not clear whether this is needed in | |

488 | NCR Intel system (i386-ncr-sysv4.2) |
489 | ||
490 | This system works in 19.31, but if you don't link it with GNU ld, | |
491 | you may need to set LD_RUN_PATH at link time to specify where | |
492 | to find the X libraries. | |
493 | ||
494 | NEC EWS4800 (mips-nec-sysv4) | |

499 | NeXT (m68k-next-nextstep) | |
500 | ||
501 | Emacs 19 has not been tested extensively yet, but it seems to work | |
502 | in a NeXTStep 3.0 terminal window, and under the X server called | |
503 | co-Xist. You may need to specify -traditional when src/Makefile | |
504 | builds xmakefile. | |
505 | ||
506 | NeXT users might want to implement direct operation with NeXTStep, | |
507 | but from the point of view of the GNU project, that is a | |
508 | distraction. | |

520 | Sequent Symmetry (i386-sequent-bsd, i386-sequent-ptx, i386-sequent-ptx4) |
521 | ||
522 | 19.33 has changes to support ptx 4 (a modified SVR4). | |
523 | ||
524 | Emacs 19 should work on Dynix (BSD). However, if you compile with | |
525 | the Sequent compiler, you may find Emacs does not restore the | |
526 | terminal settings on exit. If this happens, compile with GCC. | |
527 | ||
528 | Emacs 19.27 contains patches that should support | |
529 | DYNIX/ptx 1.4 and 2.1 with the native cc compiler. | |
530 | ||
531 | GCC can't compile src/process.c due to a non-standard Sequent asm | |
532 | keyword extension supported by cc and used for the network byte/word | |
533 | swapping functions in the PTX /usr/include/netinet/in.h file. GCC | |
534 | 2.5.8 includes the file <sys/byteorder.h> which can be included into | |
535 | netinet/in.h to perform these byte/word swapping functions in the | |
536 | same manner. Patches have been submitted to the FSF against GCC | |
537 | 2.6.0 to fix this problem and allow Emacs to be built with GCC. | |
538 | ||
539 | If your machine does not have TCP/IP installed, you will have to edit the | |
540 | src/s/ptx.h file and comment out #define TCPIP_INSTALLED. | |

f4b79972 EZ |
545 | `--with-x' works without any modifications, but `--with-x-toolkit' |
546 | works only if the Athena library and the Toolkit library are linked | |
547 | statically. For this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run | |
548 | and modify the lines with `-lXaw' and `-lXt' as follows: | |
549 | ||
550 | LIBW= /usr/lib/libXaw.a | |
551 | LIBXT= $(LIBW) -lXmu /usr/lib/libXt.a $(LIBXTR6) -lXext | |
552 | ||
553 | In addition, `--with-x-toolkit=motif' works only | |
554 | if the Motif library and the Toolkit library are linked statically. | |
555 | To do this, edit `src/Makefile' after the `configure' run | |
556 | and modify the lines with `-lXm' and `-lXt' as follows: | |
557 | ||
558 | LIBW= /usr/lib/libXm.a /usr/ccs/lib/libgen.a | |

567 | The 19.26 pretest is reported to work. | |
568 | ||
569 | Some versions of the operating system give SIGTRAP for division by zero | |
570 | instead of the usual signals. This causes division by zero | |
571 | to make Emacs crash. The system should be fixed to give the proper signal. | |
572 | Changing Emacs is not a proper solution, because it would prevent | |
573 | Emacs from working under any debugger. But you can change init_data | |
574 | in data.c if you wish. | |

579 | To build a 32-bit Emacs (i.e. if you are having any sort of problem |
580 | bootstrapping a 64-bit version), you can use the Sun Studio compiler | |
581 | and configure Emacs with: | |
582 | env CC="cc -xarch=v7" CFLAGS='' ./configure # on SPARC systems | |
583 | env CC="cc -xarch=386" CFLAGS='' ./configure # on x86 systems | |
584 | On Solaris 2.10, it is also possible to use /usr/sfw/bin/gcc to build | |
585 | a 32-bit version of Emacs. Just make sure you point ./configure to | |
586 | the right compiler: | |
587 | ||
588 | env CC='/usr/sfw/bin/gcc -m32' ./configure | |
589 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
590 | To build a 64-bit Emacs (with larger maximum buffer size and |
591 | including large file support) on a Solaris system which supports | |
592 | 64-bit executables, use the Sun compiler, configuring something like | |
593 | this (see the cc documentation for information on 64-bit | |
5ebc76c9 EZ |
594 | compilation): |
595 | ||
596 | env CC="cc -xarch=v9" CFLAGS='' ./configure # on SPARC systems | |
597 | env CC="cc -xarch=amd64" CFLAGS='' ./configure # on x86 systems | |
f4b79972 EZ |

602 | Some versions of Solaris 8 have a bug in their XIM (X Input Method) |
603 | implementation which causes Emacs to dump core when one of several | |
604 | frames is closed. To avoid this, either install patch 108773-12 | |
605 | (for Sparc) or 108874-12 (for x86), or configure Emacs with the | |
606 | `--with-xim=no' switch (you can use Leim input methods instead). | |

608 | On Solaris 2.7, building Emacs with WorkShop Compilers 5.0 98/12/15 |
609 | C 5.0 failed, apparently with non-default CFLAGS, most probably due to | |
610 | compiler bugs. Using Sun Solaris 2.7 Sun WorkShop 6 update 1 C | |
611 | release was reported to work without problems. It worked OK on | |
612 | another system with Solaris 8 using apparently the same 5.0 compiler | |
613 | and the default CFLAGS. | |

615 | Emacs 21.1 and 21.2 built with Sun's ProWorks PC3.0.1 compiler on |

617 | Using GCC or a newer SUN compiler (Sun WokShop 6 update 2 C 5.3 | |
618 | 2001/05/15) solves the problem. | |

620 | Emacs 20.5 and later work on SPARC GNU/Linux with the 32-bit ABI. |
621 | As of release 2.95, GCC doesn't work properly with the 64-bit ABI | |
622 | (applicable on UltraSPARC), but that isn't the default mode. | |
623 | ||
624 | Emacs 20.3 fails to build on Solaris 2.5 if you use GCC 2.7.2.3. | |
625 | Installing GCC 2.8 fixes the problem. | |
626 | ||
627 | 19.32 works on Solaris 2.4 and 2.5. On Solaris 2.5 | |
628 | you may need one of these patches to prevent Emacs from crashing | |
629 | when it starts up: | |

634 | There are reports that using SunSoft cc with -xO4 -xdepend produces | |
635 | bad code for some part of Emacs. | |
636 | ||
637 | Emacs works ok Sunos 4.1.x | |
638 | provided you completely replace your C shared library | |
639 | using one of the SunOS 4.1.x jumbo replacement patches from Sun. | |
640 | Here are the patch numbers for Sunos 4.1.3: | |
641 | 100890-10 SunOS 4.1.3: domestic libc jumbo patch | |
642 | 100891-10 SunOS 4.1.3: international libc jumbo patch | |
643 | ||
644 | Some people report that Emacs crashes immediately on startup when | |
645 | used with a non-X terminal, but we think this is due to compiling | |
646 | with GCC and failing to use GCC's "fixed" system header files. | |
647 | ||
648 | Some Sun versions of X windows use the clipboard, not the selections, | |
649 | for transferring text between clients. The Cut, Paste and Copy items | |
650 | in the menu bar Edit menu work with the clipboard. | |

f4b79972 EZ |
652 | A user reported irreproducible segmentation faults when using 19.29 |
653 | on Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 after compiling it with the Sun compiler. | |
654 | The problem went away when GCC 2.7.0 was used instead. We do not know | |
655 | whether anything in Emacs is partly to blame for this. | |
656 | ||
657 | X11R6 is set up to make shared libraries only, on Sunos 4. | |
658 | Therefore, in order to link Emacs, you need to create static X libraries. | |
659 | To do this, rebuild X11 after setting | |
660 | #define ForceNormalLib YES | |
661 | #define SeparateSharedCompile YES | |
662 | in site.def (after #ifdef AfterVendorCF). | |
663 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
664 | If you compile with Sun's ANSI compiler acc, you need additional options |
665 | when linking temacs, such as | |
666 | /usr/lang/SC2.0.1/values-Xt.o -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1/cg87 -L/usr/lang/SC2.0.1 | |
667 | (those should be added just before the libraries) and you need to | |
668 | add -lansi just before -lc. The precise file names depend on the | |
669 | compiler version, so we cannot easily arrange to supply them. | |
670 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
671 | On Solaris 2, you need to install patch 100947-02 to fix a system bug. |
672 | Presumably this patch comes from Sun. You must alter the definition of | |
673 | LD_SWITCH_SYSTEM if your X11 libraries are not in /usr/openwin/lib. | |
674 | You must make sure that /usr/ucblib is not in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. | |
675 | ||
676 | On Solaris 2.2, with a multiprocessor SparcCenter 1000, Emacs 19.17 is | |
677 | reported to hang sometimes if it exits while it has one or more | |
678 | subprocesses (e.g. the `wakeup' subprocess used by `display-time'). | |
679 | Emacs and its subprocesses become zombies, and in their zombie state | |
680 | slow down their host and disable rlogin and telnet. This is most | |
681 | likely due to a bug in Solaris 2.2's multiprocessor support, | |
682 | rather than an Emacs bug. | |
683 | ||
684 | On Solaris, do not use /usr/ucb/cc. Use /opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc. Make | |
685 | sure that /usr/ccs/bin and /opt/SUNWspro/bin are in your PATH before | |
686 | /usr/ucb. (Most free software packages have the same requirement on | |
67b33cb0 GM |
687 | Solaris.) With this compiler, use `/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc -E' as the |
688 | preprocessor. If this inserts extra whitespace into its output (see | |
689 | the PROBLEMS file) then add the option `-Xs'. | |
f4b79972 EZ |
690 | |
691 | If you have trouble using open-network-stream, get the distribution | |
692 | of `bind' (the BSD name-server), build libresolv.a, and link Emacs | |
693 | with -lresolv, by copying the #definition of LIBS_SYSTEM in | |
694 | src/s/sunos4-1.h to src/config.h. This problem is due to obsolete | |
695 | software in the nonshared standard library. | |
696 | ||
f4b79972 EZ |
697 | Note that Emacs on a Sun is not really as big as it looks. |
698 | As dumped, it includes around 200k of zeros between the | |
699 | original text section and the original data section | |
700 | (now remapped as part of the text). These are never | |
701 | swapped in. | |
702 | ||
703 | To build a single Emacs that will run on Sun 2 and Sun 3 | |
704 | HARDWARE, just build it on the Sun 2. | |
705 | ||
706 | On Sunos 4.1.3, the word is that Emacs can loop infinitely | |
707 | on startup with X due perhaps to a bug in Sunos. Installing all of | |
708 | these Sun patches fixes the problem. We don't know which of them | |
709 | are really relevant. | |

732 | You will probably want to see if you can make subprocesses work. | |
733 | ||
734 | You must edit `lib-src/Makefile' to define LOADLIBES = -mld. | |

736 | Vaxen running Berkeley Unix (vax-dec-bsd4.1, vax-dec-bsd4.2, vax-dec-bsd4.3), |
737 | Ultrix (vax-dec-ultrix), | |
738 | System V (vax-dec-sysv0, vax-dec-sysv2), or | |
739 | VMS (vax-dec-vms) | |
740 | ||
741 | Works. | |
742 | ||
743 | See under Ultrix for problems using X windows on Ultrix (vax-dec-ultrix). | |
744 | ||
745 | 18.27 worked on System V rel 2 (vax-dec-sysv2). | |
746 | ||
747 | 18.36 worked on System V rel 0 (vax-dec-sysv0). | |
748 | ||
749 | Richard Levitte <levitte@e.kth.se> distributes a set of patches to | |
750 | Emacs 18.59 to make it work nicely under VMS. Emacs 19 probably | |
751 | won't work very well, or even compile. Levitte is working on a | |
752 | port, so these problems should be fixed in the near future. | |

755 | Here are notes about some of the systems supported: | |
756 | ||
757 | Berkeley 4.1 (bsd4.1) | |
758 | ||
759 | Works on vaxes. | |
760 | ||
761 | Berkeley 4.2 (bsd4.2) | |
762 | ||
763 | Works on several machines. | |
764 | ||
765 | Berkeley 4.3 (bsd4.3) | |
766 | ||
767 | Works, on Vaxes at least. | |
768 | ||

769 | Linux (actually GNU/Linux) |
770 | ||
771 | Most of the complete systems which use the Linux kernel are close | |
772 | enough to the GNU system to be considered variant GNU systems. We | |
773 | call them "Linux-based GNU systems," or GNU/Linux for short. | |
774 | ||
775 | It is not coincidence that many of the other components used with | |
776 | Linux--including GNU Emacs--were developed specifically for the GNU | |
777 | project. The GNU project was launched in 1984 to develop a free | |
778 | complete Unix-like operating system. To reach this goal, we had to | |
779 | develop whatever system components were not available as freely | |
780 | redistributable software from some other source. | |
781 | ||
782 | The GNU project wants users of GNU/Linux systems to be aware of how | |
783 | these systems relate to the GNU project, because that will help | |
784 | spread the GNU idea that software should be free--and thus encourage | |
785 | people to write more free software. See the file LINUX-GNU in this | |
786 | directory for more explanation. | |
787 | ||
788 | Microport | |
789 | ||
790 | See under "Intel 386". | |
791 | ||
792 | MSDOS | |
793 | ||
794 | For installation on MSDOS, see the file INSTALL (search for `MSDOG', | |
795 | near the end of the file). See the "MS-DOS" chapter of the manual | |
796 | for information about using Emacs on MSDOS. | |
797 | ||
798 | SCO Unix | |
f4b79972 EZ |
799 | |
800 | If you are using MMDF instead of sendmail, you need to remove | |
801 | /usr/lib/sendmail or modify lisp/paths.el before compiling. | |
802 | lisp/paths.el (which is loaded during the build) will attempt to use | |
803 | sendmail if it exists. | |
804 | ||
805 | If you are using SMAIL, you need to define the macro | |
806 | SMAIL in config.h. | |
807 | ||
808 | System V rel 0 (usg5.0) | |
809 | ||
810 | Works, on Vaxes and 3bxxx's. | |
811 | There are some problems in 18.37 due to shortnames/cccp problems: | |
812 | use the emacs 17 cpp if you have it. | |
813 | ||
814 | System V rel 2 (usg5.2) | |
815 | ||
816 | Works on various machines. | |
817 | On some (maybe all) machines the library -lPW exists and contains | |
818 | a version of `alloca'. On these machines, to use it, put | |
819 | #define HAVE_ALLOCA | |
820 | #define LIB_STANDARD -lPW -lc | |
821 | in the `src/m/MACHINENAME.h' file for the machine. | |
822 | ||
823 | If you find that the character Meta-DEL makes Emacs crash, | |
824 | find where function init_sys_modes in sysdep.c sets sg.c_cc[VQUIT] | |
825 | and make it store 7 there. I have as yet no evidence of whether | |
826 | this problem, known in HP/UX, exists in other system V versions. | |
827 | ||
828 | System V rel 2.2 (usg5.2.2) | |
829 | ||
830 | In 5.2.2 AT&T undid, incompatibly, their previous incompatible | |
831 | change to the way the nlist library is called. A different s- file | |
832 | is used to enable the other interface. | |
833 | ||
834 | They call themselves the right choice--can't they choose? | |
835 | ||
836 | Emacs version 18 unexec is currently not working properly | |
837 | on 5.2.2. Nobody knows why yet. A workaround is to define | |
838 | NO_REMAP. It is not yet known whether this applies to all | |
839 | machines running 5.2.2. | |
840 | ||
841 | System V rel 3 (usg5.3) | |
842 | ||
843 | Some versions of this system support ptys and BSD-style sockets. | |
844 | On such systems, you should define HAVE_PTYS and HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h. | |
845 | ||
846 | If you want to link Emacs with shared libraries, define | |
847 | USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES. | |
848 | ||
849 | You may have to add ANSI idempotence #-lines to your sys/types.h | |
850 | file to get Emacs to compile correctly. This may be necessary on | |
851 | other pre-ANSI systems as well. | |
852 | ||
853 | On an AT&T 6386WGS using System V Release 3.2 and X11R3, the X support | |
854 | cannot be made to work. Whether or not the GNU relocating malloc is | |
855 | used, the symptom is that the first call Emacs makes to sbrk(0) returns | |
856 | (char *)-1. Sorry, you're stuck with character-only mode. Try | |
178b60d7 | 857 | installing XFree86 to fix this. |
f4b79972 EZ |
858 | |
859 | System V rel 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 (usg5.4) | |
860 | ||
861 | Supported, including shared libraries for ELF, but ptys do not work | |
862 | because TIOCGPGRP fails to work on ptys (but Dell 2.2 seems to have | |
863 | fixed this). This failure is probably due to a misunderstanding of | |
864 | the consequences of the POSIX spec: many system designers mistakenly | |
865 | think that POSIX requires this feature to fail. This is untrue; | |
866 | ptys are an extension, and POSIX says that extensions *when used* | |
867 | may change the action of standard facilities in any fashion. | |
868 | ||
869 | If you get compilation errors about wrong number of | |
870 | arguments to getpgrp, define GETPGRP_NO_ARG. | |
871 | ||
872 | The standard C preprocessor may generate xmakefile incorrectly. However, | |
873 | /lib/cpp will work, so use `make CPP=/lib/cpp'. Standard cpp | |
874 | seems to work OK under Dell 2.2. | |
875 | ||
876 | Some versions 3 and earlier of V.4, on the Intel 386 and 860, had | |
877 | problems in the X11 libraries. These prevent Emacs from working | |
878 | with X. You can use Emacs with X provided your copy of X is based | |
879 | on X11 release 4 or newer, or is Dell's 2.2 (which is a 4.0.3). | |
880 | Unfortunately, the only way you can tell whether your X11 library is | |
881 | new enough is to try compiling Emacs to use X. If emacs runs, your | |
882 | X11 library is new enough. | |
883 | ||
884 | In this context, GSV4 and GSV4i are alternate names for X11R4. | |
885 | OL2.* is X11R3 based. OL3 is in between X11R3 and X11R4, and may or | |
886 | may not work, depending on who made the Unix system. If the library | |
887 | libXol is part of the X distribution, then you have X11R3 and Emacs | |
888 | won't work with X. | |
889 | ||
890 | Most versions of V.4 support sockets. If `/usr/lib/libsocket.so' | |
891 | exists, your system supports them. If yours does not, you must add | |
892 | #undef HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h, after the inclusion of s-usg5-4.h. | |
893 | (Any system that supports Internet should implement sockets.) | |
894 | ||
895 | Ultrix (bsd4.3) | |
896 | ||
897 | Recent versions of Ultrix appear to support the features of Berkeley 4.3. | |
898 | Ultrix was at the BSD 4.2 level for a long time after BSD 4.3 came out. | |
899 | ||
900 | Ultrix 3.0 has incompatibilities in its X library if you have the | |
901 | Ultrix version of X (UWS version 2.0). To solve them, you need to | |
902 | prevent XvmsAlloc.o in Xlib from being used. Israel Pinkas says: | |
903 | ||
904 | I added the following lines to config.h after the X defines: | |
905 | ||
906 | #if defined(ultrix) && defined(X11) | |
907 | #define OBJECTS_SYSTEM calloc.o | |
908 | #endif | |
909 | ||
910 | Then I ran the following: | |
911 | ||
912 | ar x /usr/lib/libc.a calloc.o | |
913 | ||
914 | The problem is said to be gone in UWS version 2.1. | |
915 | ||

916 | VMS (vmsM.N) |
917 | ||
918 | Richard Levitte <levitte@e.kth.se> distributes a set of patches to | |
919 | Emacs 18.59 to make it work nicely under VMS. Emacs 19 probably | |
920 | won't work very well, or even compile. Levitte is working on a | |
921 | port, so these problems should be fixed in the near future. | |
922 | ||
923 | Note that Emacs for VMS is usually distributed in a special VMS | |
924 | distribution. See the file ../vms/VMSINSTALL for info on moving | |
925 | Unix distributions to VMS, and other VMS-related topics. | |
926 | ||

932 | X86_64 GNU/Linux |
933 | ||
934 | No special procedures should be needed to build a 64-bit Emacs. To | |
935 | build a 32-bit Emacs, first ensure that the necessary 32-bit system | |
936 | libraries and include files are installed. Then use: | |
937 | ||
938 | env CC="gcc -m32" ./configure --build=i386-linux-gnu \ | |
939 | --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib | |
940 | ||
941 | (using the location of the 32-bit X libraries on your system). | |
