Introduction This guide will try to guide you through the installation process of building GNUstep from source code. I only have GNU/Linux systems, so it might be that some things are GNU/Linux related. Some things are just assumed to be there, like a working system and the X-windows system (X11R6). If you work your way through the document from start to finish, you should end up with a working system. No guarantees are made ofcourse. If you find things to be different on your system, please let me know. 1.2. Credits Writing a guide is not a one man job. First of all there needs to be a subject to write about, then there is the need to gather information and after that bugs, omissions, etc. are found in the work. The list tries to thank the people that helped me writing this guide. It is far from complete, but the best I could do. If you feel you should be on the list, but are not let me know. 1 Chapter 2. Check your system This chapter guides you through the checking of your system, to see if all vital components are there to install GNUstep. Since there are several Un*x flavours out there, I have tried to do my best to be as generic as possible. Every part has a couple distinct sections, where we start with a test to see if the right program or library is available and if not I will almost always give a quick guide of how to install that piece. All additional software will be installed in /usr/local. Remember however that you should FIRST check to see if a package update for your system is available from your supplier, this keeps your system consistent and helps with future upgrades. If you decide to go with the "compile from source" there are some tips you might find useful to monitor what is actually going on on your system. Solaris 8 When you install any of the below software in /usr/local make sure you have /usr/local/bin before /usr/ccs/bin in your path. 2.1. Tips while installing Be sure to have atleast /usr/local/lib and /usr/X11R6/lib in your /etc/ld.so.conf before you continue. The general procedure to compile most software programs is to use: ./configure make make install Make sure you use GNU make for this. That means that on e.g. FreeBSD you’ll have to substitute the make command with gmake. I don’t know much about other compilers then gcc, so I guess you are on your own on that one. Let me know if you have good tips. I always like to keep track about what a program installs and where, so I always do (I assume sources go under /usr/src): mkdir -p /var/adm/[programname] touch /usr/src/test ./configure make make install find / -cnewer /usr/src/test | grep -v /proc | grep -v /var | grep -v /usr/src > /var/adm/[programname]/filelist 2 Chapter 2. Check your system Now I have a complete list of all installed files, which saves me trouble in generating packages, but also when removing the program, before upgrading or if something was build wrong (which happens). 2.2. make Priority: A must have. GNU Make Automatically determines which pieces of a program need to be compiled, and issues commands to recompile them. 1. Check make --version \ | awk '{if(/Make/) print $4}' Which should return: 3.79.0, or higher. 2. Download ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.80.tar.gz (ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.80.tar.gz) 3. Build ./configure make make install 4. Post-install a. GNU/Linux By default /usr/bin/make is installed setgid kmem. This is needed on some systems so it can check the load

Compilers for high level languages generate code that follow certain conventions. These conventions are necessary, in part, for separate compilation to work. One such convention is the calling convention. The calling convention is a set of assumptions made by the compiler about where function arguments will be found on entry to a function. A calling convention also specifies where the return value for a function is found. The calling convention isalso sometimes called the ABI or Application Binary Interface. Some programs may not know at the time of compilation what arguments are to be passed to a function. For instance, an interpreter may be told at run-time about the number and types of arguments used to call a given function. `Libffi' can be used in such programs to provide a bridge from the interpreter program to compiled code. The `libffi' library provides a portable, high level programming interface to various calling conventions. This allows a programmer to call any function specified by a call interface description at run time. FFI stands for Foreign Function Interface. A foreign function interface is the popular name for the interface that allows code written in one language to call code written in another language.

  • Compiler Fuzzing: How Much Does It Matter?
    Compiler Fuzzing: How Much Does It Matter? MICHAËL MARCOZZI∗, QIYI TANG∗, ALASTAIR F. DONALDSON, and CRISTIAN CADAR, Imperial College London, United Kingdom Despite much recent interest in randomised testing (fuzzing) of compilers, the practical impact of fuzzer-found compiler bugs on real-world applications has barely been assessed. We present the first quantitative and qualitative study of the tangible impact of miscompilation bugs in a mature compiler. We follow a rigorous methodology where the bug impact over the compiled application is evaluated based on (1) whether the bug appears to trigger during compilation; (2) the extent to which generated assembly code changes syntactically due to triggering of the bug; and (3) whether such changes cause regression test suite failures, or whether we can manually find application inputs that trigger execution divergence due to such changes. Thestudy is conducted with respect to the compilation of more than 10 million lines of C/C++ code from 309 Debian 155 packages, using 12% of the historical and now fixed miscompilation bugs found by four state-of-the-art fuzzers in the Clang/LLVM compiler, as well as 18 bugs found by human users compiling real code or as a by-product of formal verification efforts. The results show that almost half of the fuzzer-found bugs propagate tothe generated binaries for at least one package, in which case only a very small part of the binary is typically affected, yet causing two failures when running the test suites of all the impacted packages. User-reported and formal verification bugs do not exhibit a higher impact, with a lower rate of triggered bugs andonetest failure.

We must regain control! 6 What’s wrong with Apt/Yum/Pacman/etc.? Global state (/usr) that prevents multiple versions of a package from coexisting. Non-atomic installation, removal, upgrade of software. No way to roll back. Nondeterminstic package builds and maintainer-uploaded binaries. (though this is changing!) Reliance on pre-built binaries provided by a single point of trust. Requires superuser privileges. 7 The problem is bigger Proliferation of language-specific package managers and binary bundles that complicate secure system maintenance.

Why write shell programs? • Run tasks customised for different systems. Variety of environment variables such as the operating system version and type can be detected within a script and necessary action taken to enable correct operation of a program. • Create the primary user interface for a variety of programming tasks. For example- to start up a package with a selection of options. • Write programs for controlling the routinely performed jobs run on a system. For example- to take backups when the system is idle. • Write job scripts for submission to a job-scheduler such as the sun- grid-engine. For example- to run your own programs in batch mode.
