Hi,
I am trying to compile crash-4.0-2.21 on my x86 box. I am running
Ubuntu 5.10, with gcc 4.0.2. I grabbed crash from
http://people.redhat.com/anderson/crash-4.0-2.21.tar.gz, untar it and
inside the newly created crash-4.0-2.21 directory, I compiled it with
"make". But there is a problem, see below. How could I fix it?
Thank you,

It's this remnant of the ancient "mcore" dumpfile format handling code
in va_server.c:
int Page_Size = PAGE_SIZE; /* temporary setting until disk header is read */
I believe it would be picking PAGE_SIZE up from <asm/page.h>, which looks
like this (on my machine):
#ifndef _I386_PAGE_H
#define _I386_PAGE_H
/* PAGE_SHIFT determines the page size */
#define PAGE_SHIFT 12
#define PAGE_SIZE (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT)
#define PAGE_MASK (~(PAGE_SIZE-1))
#endif /* _I386_PAGE_H */
I don't know what the "initializer element is not constand" error message
means or requires exactly w/respect to this type of data initializer. Is it
the use of a "UL" to initialize an int? Does anybody else on the list know?
Try just setting it to 4096. It's completely meaningless code unless
you're looking at a dumpfile generated from the mcore patch, which
I would presume is highly unlikely...

It's this remnant of the ancient "mcore" dumpfile format handling code
in va_server.c:
int Page_Size = PAGE_SIZE; /* temporary setting until disk header is read */
that is always annoying because Linux distros have no common file
headers. the problem is that in my Ubuntu box, PAGE_SIZE is defined as
a function, like this:
#define PAGE_SIZE ((unsigned long)getpagesize())
obviously you guys run FC/Redhat, which has a different file header,
so you have no such a problem.

Ah, OK, so I'll fix it like this:
--- va_server.c.orig 2006-03-22 08:57:36.000000000 -0500

That will keep mcore happy.

Please don't break the mcore support, it's still used ...
Hey, just hearing that good 'ol MCLX mcore is still being used brings
warmth to my heart! So I won't even *suggest* such things in the future!
Thanks,
