[Mono-dev] Compiling Mono v2.4 RC2 (Solaris 10 SPARCv9)

Mon Jul 27 08:44:48 EDT 2009

After reading this thread and others about building 2.4 on Solaris, I think I
almost have 2.4.2.2 ready. The build succeeds, the problem is that the 'make
check' fails in mini with:

MONO_PATH=../../mcs/class/lib/net_2_0 ../../runtime/mono-wrapper
--regression basic.exe basic-float.exe basic-long.exe basic-calls.exe
objects.exe arrays.exe basic-math.exe exceptions.exe iltests.exe
devirtualization.exe generics.exe basic-simd.exe
GC Warning: Large stack limit(10485760): only scanning 8 MB
GLib: Cannot convert message: Conversion from character set 'UTF-8' to '646'
is not supported
Test run:
image=/export/home/smithti/mono_build/src/mono-2.4.2.2/mono/mini/basic.exe,
opts=

** (process:13102): WARNING **: unknown opcode int_rem_un_imm in
mono_arch_output_basic_block()

** ERROR **: file mini-sparc.c: line 3694 (mono_arch_output_basic_block):

aborting...
Stacktrace:

make[4]: *** [rcheck] Abort (core dumped)
make[4]: Leaving directory
`/export/home/smithti/mono_build/src/mono-2.4.2.2/mono/mini'

I had the Solaris iconv package installed but that did not help the GLib
error, nor do I know if the GLib error is the issue.

The build server is a Solaris Zone that was stripped of as much of the
development env as possible. I had that done since a common theme in the
posts, here and elsewhere, seemed to indicate that the best chance was using
as pure of a GNU toolset as possible. 

I did have to edit the mono configure script to disable dtrace for solaris,
it caused the build to fail in the metadata directory since dtrace invokes
ld with -Blocal and the GNU ld didn't like it.

This only used to run configure. I also edited
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/gthread-2.0.pc as described in that post.
