7 years ago The autotools build is complete. It will be rolled in to master with multi-component storage (74fe7194). However, before we merge I would like to look in to making asw4c, PA2X, and erasureUtils actual submodules.
Below is a summary of the changes so far.
Overview of Changes
- libconfig is no longer a separate entity. It is rolled in to libmarfs, so any applications that need the marfs config now just need to link libmarfs. I have submitted a pull request to PFTool that addresses this change.
- The location where libmarfs.a, marfs_fuse, and all the utilities are built is now the root of the source tree. (not fuse/src and the individual utility folders).
- To simplify the build and make it easier to add non gpfs-specific utilities later I have restructured the utilities subtree.
- If you use
make mntto mount marfs you will need to provide the variableMARFS_MNT=/mount.pointto the configure script (or set it in your environment).
Example usage
$ cd marfs
$ autoreconf --install
$ ./configure --enable-mc --enable-logging=stdout LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/libne" MARFS_MNT=/campaign
...
$ make
$ sudo make mnt MARFSCONFIGRC=$MARFSCONFIGRC
The Makefile-approach was nice, early on, when we needed flexibility and a convenient repository for techniques. We're past that, now. We can keep some of the makefile conveniences.
