Re: Solaris Binaries

[Gabor Zoltan Csejtey <Gabor.Csejtey@idi.ntnu.no>]

HI,

I'm using 2.4.3 kernel now and the Solaris emulation is fine.
For example:
ldd /solaris/bin/ldd 
        libelf.so.1 =>   /solaris/bin/../lib/libelf.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /solaris/bin/../lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1

ldd /solaris/bin/tar
        libcmd.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libcmd.so.1
        libsec.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libsec.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1

I configured the solaris simulation using kernel 2.2.17 and I didn't
change anything of course I installed new modutils, modconf, mount,
fileutils etc. for the 2.4.x kernel.

Here's a part of the kernel config:

CONFIG_KCORE_ELF=y
CONFIG_SPARC32_COMPAT=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF32=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT32=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y
CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC=m
CONFIG_SUNOS_EMUL=y
CONFIG_SOLARIS_EMUL=m
...
CONFIG_SUN_PARTITION=y

solaris inserted as a module

I mounted the solaris partitions:

/dev/hda1 on /solaris type ufs (ro,ufstype=sun)
/dev/hda4 on /solaris/var type ufs (ro,ufstype=sun)
/dev/hda5 on /solaris/usr type ufs (ro,ufstype=sun)
/dev/hda8 on /solaris/home type ufs (rw)

where:
   Device Flag    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1             0       152     71820    2  SunOS root
/dev/hda2  u        152       707    262237+   3  SunOS swap
/dev/hda3             0      8892   4201470    5  Whole disk
/dev/hda4           707      1141    205065    7  SunOS var
/dev/hda5          1141      2724    747967+   4  SunOS usr
/dev/hda6          2724      8600   2776410   83  Linux native
/dev/hda8          8600      8892    137970    8  SunOS home

I made the directory:
/usr/gnemul/solaris/

and linked the following in the /usr/gnemul/solaris:
bin -> /solaris/bin
etc -> /solaris/etc
lib -> /solaris/lib
opt -> /solaris/opt
platform -> /solaris/platform
sbin -> /solaris/sbin
usr -> /solaris/usr
var -> /solaris/var

PS.
You may need to mount the var partition write enabled too.

	It can't find the Solaris dynamic linker, which needs to be in /lib (as
	ld.so or ld.so.1, can't remember).

	Also, to find the other libraries, you need to either set
	LD_LIBRARY_PATH, or put them in /usr/lib. You can also copy all the
	Solaris stuff to another directory and chroot to it.
