C includes as they contain substitutions specific to make.
Worked around by creating sysconf/paths.h which is created from
the Makefile instead of by the configure script.
(the current version UNIX-specific) anyway, so it's useless to try splitting it
to sysdep and generic part. Instead of this, configure script decides (based on
system type and user's wish) what (if any) client should be built and what
autoconfiguration it requires. Also, the client provides its own die/bug/...
functions.
you need to have your kernel compiled with netlink routing messages enabled.
If it doesn't work for you, use --with-sysconfig=linux-21 and let me know
what's going wrong.
reside, so that you can easily switch between 2.0 and 2.2 ones.
Check existence of <linux/rtnetlink.h> for linux-22 configs to make sure
we're using the correct set of includes.
operations on 2.1/2.2 kernels. This allows passing of real interface
indexes instead of referencing interfaces by their IP addresses which
fails badly in presence of unnumbered interfaces.
Unfortunately, this structure is not visible with glibc 2.0 as it provides
its own networking headers :-( Both libc5 and glibc 2.1 should be OK.
documented the remaining ones (sysdep/cf/README).
Available configurations:
o linux-20: Old Linux interface via /proc/net/route (selected by default
on pre-2.1 kernels).
o linux-21: Old Linux interface, but device routes handled by the
kernel (selected by default for 2.1 and newer kernels).
o linux-22: Linux with Netlink (I play with it a lot yet, so it isn't
a default).
o linux-ipv6: Prototype config for IPv6 on Linux. Not functional yet.
over EFence and also hopefully smaller memory overhead, but sadly it's non-free
for commercial use).
If the DMALLOC_OPTIONS environment variable is not set, switch on `reasonable'
checks by default.
Also introduced mb_allocz() for cleared mb_alloc().
guesses most system-dependent parameters and determines name of system
configuration file (sysdep/cf/...) with the remaining ones.
To compile BIRD, you now need to do:
autoconf # Create configure from configure.in
./configure # Run configure script
make # Compile everything
Configuration files:
sysdep/config.h Master config file
sysdep/autoconf.h Parameters determined by configure script
sysdep/cf/*.h Fixed system configuration we're unable
to guess.
Makefiles are still the original ones, but this will change soon.
