More problems

[maydin@us.ibm.com]

I am running a dual processor system since /proc/cpuinfo tells me that
there are 2 processors.
when I try arlad -tz, I first got the following message:
[root at s390laba bin]# ./arlad -tz
Tue Jul 25 11:21:06 2000: arlad: mkdir /usr/arla/cache: Unknown error
2147477080
I discovered that this error is due to the fact that /usr/arla/cache
already existed as a part of my previous effort to run arla.
deleting the cache directory cured this problem, but now I get the
following messages:
[root at s390laba bin]# ./arlad -tz

[root at s390laba bin]#
The ip numbers are the afs servers in apd.pok.ibm.com.  I had tried with
these settings in intel linux
and it worked, so I am assuming I need to modify more than just CellServDB
and ThisCell files, which I did.

Also, what is afs3-vlserver, etc.... what do they mean?

Unfortunately my ksyms file does not hafe kernel_flag in it, so I am
assuming I have to recompile the kernel.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

memmove and strncpy is probably inclined by gcc. There is an implemetation
of them in /usr/src/linux/lib/string.c that you can paste into a file (like
xfs_deb.c) to make them work.

Can you list where the kernel_flag is used on smp computers. And I see that
you have defined __SMP__ when building the module. Is your computer a SMP
computer (if not, try adding the flag --disable-smp) to the configure
script).

You should also find kernel_flag i /proc/ksyms, if not you should add a
line like

#ifdef __SMP__
EXPORT_SYMBOL(kernel_flag);
#endif

in to the S/390 equivalent of /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/i386_ksyms.c
and rebuild your kernel, don't forget to run ``make dep''.

But first you should start try run ``arlad -tz'' (test-mode) to see if
arlad works first.

The warning message isn't really that much to care about, the lwp warnings
isn't that good, but if you can run the test program (lwp/testlwp) that
should be perfectly ok).
