Hello,
I'm experimenting with Arla on Solaris7/X86. It works quite well, but
has some problems.
1. The build process fails because the name of the xfs module in
xfs/solaris is the same as the name of the include directory. That's
easy to solve, I changed the module name in the Makefile to
xfs_module.
2. I see a strange behaviour when a directory is created, populated
and deleted immediately afterwards. This happened while I was trying
to build egcs. I boiled it down to the following sequence of commands:
mkdir tmpcopy
if [ xlibgcc1.null != x ]; \
then (cd tmpcopy; ar x ../libgcc1.null); \
else true; \
fi
(cd tmpcopy; chmod +w * > /dev/null 2>&1)
(cd tmpcopy; ar x ../libgcc2.a)
(cd tmpcopy; ar rc ../tmplibgcc.a *.o)
rm -rf tmpcopy
sleep 3
rm -rf tmpcopy
The first rm -rf comes back with:
rm: Unable to remove tmpcopy: File exists
The second rm -rf works.
The appended system call trace shows that in the first case, reading
the directory does not give all filenames.
I'm afraid I don't know what's going on. I append the debugging output
of xfs and arlad.
Thanks a lot for your efforts.
