.Sh NAME
|
|
|

.Nm compat_netbsd32
|
|
|
|
|
.Nd setup procedure for 32-bit compatibility on 64-bit platform
|
|
|
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
|
.Nm
|
|
|
|
|
module allows
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx Ns Tn /sparc64
|
|
|
|
|
to run
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx Ns Tn /sparc
|
|
|
|
|
executables.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
To use
|
2003-02-25 13:34:36 +03:00
|
|
|
.Nm ,
|
2001-06-07 19:25:31 +04:00
|
|
|
one must either have
|
|
|
|
|
.Dv COMPAT_NETBSD32
|
|
|
|
|
in the kernel, or load the compat_netbsd32 and exec_netbsd32 kernel
|
|
|
|
|
modules.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
Static executables typically need no additional setup.
|
2003-03-16 19:57:53 +03:00
|
|
|
Dynamic binaries require the dynamic linker, plus shared libraries. Most of
|
2001-06-07 19:25:31 +04:00
|
|
|
these files will need to be placed under
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /emul/netbsd32 .
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
The easiest method of installing support for these is via the
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa emulators/netbsd32_compat14
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa emulators/netbsd32_compat15
|
|
|
|
|
packages, provided in the
|
|
|
|
|
.Nx
|
|
|
|
|
packages collection. These install 32-bit a.out and ELF compatibility
|
|
|
|
|
libraries, respectively. The details of what is actually necessary for
|
|
|
|
|
correct operation are given below. This obviously is handled by the
|
|
|
|
|
emulator packages.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
For a.out compatibility,
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /usr/libexec/ld.so
|
|
|
|
|
from a 32-bit distribution is required to exist as
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /emul/netbsd32/usr/libexec/ld.so .
|
|
|
|
|
For 32-bit ELF compatibility,
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /usr/libexec/ld.elf_so
|
|
|
|
|
needs to be in
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /emul/netbsd32/usr/libexec/ld.elf_so .
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
The shared libaries for a.out binaries do not live under the
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /emul/netbsd32
|
|
|
|
|
directory, but under the
|
|
|
|
|
.Pa /emul/aout
|
2003-03-16 19:57:53 +03:00
|
|
|
directory, where the a.out dynamic linker will find them.
|

|
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
|
|
|
A list of things which fail to work in compatibility mode should
|
|
|
|
|
be here.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
IPC is not well supported.
|
|
|
|
|
.Pp
|
|
|
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
|
|
|
is not well supported.
