Hi all,

I want to login to my MIPS box = through serial=20 port.

I execute 'make menuconfig' and = select the 'serial=20 console'.

But I can't see the login = prompt in my window(I use=20 netterm).

May I ask how serial console = work?

Or I forget = something?

P.S I skip /sbin/init = program.

Hello, I'm currently porting Linux kernel to MIPS SEAD board, Here are some problems that I've met. My kernel can boot on SEAD board. I've built a ramdisk for my kernel to mount as root-disk. It can mount the ramdisk successfully, when it comes to execve("/bin/sh", ...) it loaded elf-binary normally, but it stop after start_thread(), there is no response anymore. I've tried to put "sash"(a statically linked shell) and "ash"(a dynamically linked shell) and even a simple "printf.c" program(it just print a line of string) into /bin/sh, but all the response are the same. I also put libc.so.6 and ld.so.1 in /lib, these two libraries will load the dynamically linked programs. Such response is like that: after calling do_exec() in src/linux/fs/exec.c it come to search_binary_handler(), the return value is 0, it means this call is success, but my kernel just can't jump into my compiled program. I knew you all are familiar with porting Linux to MIPS architecture. Therefore, i wish to ask somebody that what is the problem with my kernel? what should i take care? Can someone tell me about his/her experience? Thanks a lot.

Hi all,

I write a sample code(user = mode) to test the serial=20 driver.

I can open COM1 and write = string to COM1.

But, when I want to read data = from COM1, the program will=20 block at read function.

I trace the driver source = code.

When the program execute write = operation, it will call=20 tty_write( ) at=20 /drivers/char/tty_io.c.

Then it will call = gs_write( ) at=20 /drivers/char/general.c.

When the program execute read = operation,it will call=20 tty_read( ) at=20 /drivers/char/tty_io.c.

Then I don't know which = function would be=20 called.

But it was blocked at operation = which called=20 (tty->ldisc.read)(tty,file,buf,count), as the=20 following

/* Function tty_read( ) in=20 tty_io.c */

if=20 (tty->ldisc.read)
{
      = /* Program will be blocked=20 here */
      i = =3D=20 (tty->ldisc.read)(tty,file,buf,count);
}
= else
{
      /* Error=20 happened */
      i =3D=20 -EIO;
}

What parameter should I = reset?

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to create a cross-compile environement for linux system that will use some specific dynamic linker. To do so I specify -Wl,--dynamic-linker flag to gcc. However doing this I face several problems: - the place for the linker during the compilation must match the place at the target system (if I pass -Wl,--dynamic-linker /xxx/yyy/ld.so then for the executable kernel looks for /xxx/yyy/ld.so in order to execute it. Instead I would like to use simply /lib/ld.so - If I pass -Wl,--dynamic-linker /lib/ld.so, then the /lib/ld.so must exist during the compilation and match the chosen system's architecture. I don't want to create this file (/lib/ld.so) on my compilation machine, as there are many architectures that get compiled there and I cannot use the same ld.so for all of them. - I saw that in gcc's spec file there is a mention of dynamic linker, for example, this one is for PPC %:{!dynamic-linker:-dynamic-linker /lib/ld.so.1} This one is interesting because there is no /lib/ld.so.1 on my machine, and it resides under /usr/local/powerpc-linux/lib. Still compiler seems to ignore the fact that it is missing from /lib and creates the corresponding .interp section and PT_INTERP header. So my question sounds like: can I specify a non-existing linker and tell ld to ignore missing file?

Ld never checks for its existence. As with binutils-2.10 it is not true. Not only ld looks for it, it opens the file, checks the architecture and even checks for SO_NAME (adds it do NEEDS list). I have tried it several times.

When I insert to pcmcai slot, = there is nothing=20 happened.

Does these codes = work?

The /init/main.c will call = init_pcmcia_ds().

But the init_pcmcia_ds() will = show error message "ds: no=20 socket driver loaded!".

Why??

My guess is that you got that message because there is no socket driver loaded. I would suggest familiarizing yourself with linux pcmcia card services on a known platform first, and then attacking this again. Shooting in the dark and then asking if anyone knows where the bullet went isn't very productive. - Eric From ralf@dea.waldorf-gmbh.de Wed Apr 18 23:51:53 2001 Received: (uucp@localhost) by guadalquivir.fnet.fr (8.8.8/97.02.12/Guadalquivir); id XAA24513; Wed, 18 Apr 2001 23:51:53 +0200 (MET DST) Received-Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2001 23:51:53 +0200 (MET DST) Received: from oss.sgi.com(216.32.174.190) via SMTP by guadalquivir.fnet.fr, id smtpd024511; Wed Apr 18 23:51:46 2001 Received: from dea.waldorf-gmbh.de (IDENT:root@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by oss.sgi.com (8.11.3/8.11.3) with ESMTP id f3ILpdM24243 for ; Wed, 18 Apr 2001 14:51:40 -0700 Received: (from ralf@localhost) by dea.waldorf-gmbh.de (8.11.1/8.11.1) id f3ILg7G01550; Wed, 18 Apr 2001 18:42:07 -0300 Date: Wed, 18 Apr 2001 18:42:07 -0300 From: Ralf Baechle To: linux-mips@oss.sgi.com, linux-mips@fnet.fr Subject: New crosscompilers Message-ID: <20010418184207.C1437@bacchus.dhis.org> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i X-Accept-Language: de,en,fr Content-Length: 347 Lines: 7 I've uploaded new egcs 1.1.2 based crosscompiler to oss.sgi.com into /pub/linux/mips/crossdev/.

You have two choices... The easy one: it doesn't work. The complicated one: Start a port based on the existing Linux/MIPS kernel code. In short, sorry, there is no support for RM600 systems in current kernels and it would take a significant amount of work (and documentation from Siemens) to port the Linux/MIPS kernel to the RM600. Some work was done by Ralf Baechle and me to port Linux to RM200C (PCI- based machines, Ralf) and RM200/RM400 (ISA/EISA-based machines, me) but the RM600 series is quite different.

However I have been working on host target debugging with the kernel gdbstub and gdbserver. As you're not interested in kernel debugging I won't say any more about the kernel stub. The (host side) gdb I've been using was configured with ./configure --target=mipsel-linux-elf (my target is an IDT MIPS 79S334 evaluation board). I too am using an x86 host. I used a development version of gdb-5.0 (I found the 'official' 5.0 had problems with the add-symbol-file command that I use for kernel module debugging, and more importantly for you... breakpoints didn't work) These problems are gone in the later version. Yesterday I got gdbserver working correctly on my target (over IP or serial). It's a combination of Martin Rivers' mips port and my 'fixes'. At this stage the build is hand cranked and neither of us have put it under the control of the gdb configuration files. However, we (lineo) will now start doing this. I hope this helps in some way. Please let me know if there is anything I can help with. It might also be worth contacting Fabrice, as it sounds like he has a working gdb and gdbserver.

A better bet is to get from the mvista CDK 1.2 release: ftp://ftp.mvista.com/pub/CDKit/1.2/cd/Source/SRPMS/hhl-gdb-5.0-1.src.rpm It says gdb 5.0, but I think gdb-4.17 is "embedded" in it. (If not, let me know). If you try to add linux-mips to gdb 5.0, you might want to look into the new multi-arch structure introduced in gdb 5.0. It *might* be the reason why original MIPS stuff is removed. Good luck. Jun
