Hi!
----
2009-04-20: ksh93-integration update 2 tarballs for Solaris 11
Nevada+OpenSolaris/Indiana
These tarballs ([2]) are intended to be installed over an existing
Solaris Nevada/Indiana/OpenSolaris >= B110 i386 or SPARC
installation and provide ksh93t+_20090310 and the content
described in PSARC/2009/248 ("ksh93 update to 2009-03-10")
and PSARC/2009/249 ("more ksh93 command conversions")
Note that the binaries are provided for testing and evaluation
purposes ONLY.
Please report any problems/errors/bugs/comments to the
ksh93-integration project bugzilla[5] or the ksh93-integration
mailinglist[4] (please subscribe before posting).
**** Highlights of this release:
- Many bugfixes to ksh93, it's infrastructure and other
commands, primarily focussing on stability, improved error
checking, performance and fixing support for large, complex
variable trees.
- The several commands have been updated (or added) and now
include common GNU+BSD+AST features, including:
/usr/bin/cksum
/usr/bin/cmp
/usr/bin/comm
/usr/bin/cut
/usr/bin/head
/usr/bin/join
/usr/bin/kill
/usr/bin/logname
/usr/bin/mkfifo
/usr/bin/paste
/usr/bin/print
/usr/bin/rev
/usr/bin/sleep
/usr/bin/sum
/usr/bin/tail
/usr/bin/tee
/usr/bin/test
/usr/bin/uniq
/usr/bin/wait
/usr/bin/wc
/usr/xpg4/bin/tail
(the full list of updated commands can be found below)
**** Install instructions:
*** Basic installation:
1. Download the tarball:
+ i386/AMD64:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
+ SPARC:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
2. Verify the MD5 checksum:
+ i386/AMD64: MD5
(ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)=
c5697c5bc5f14bfa6a2c5708ed25e4f2
+ SPARC: MD5
(ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)=
e0cc96c747f87094388abd62c4694816
3. Login as user "root":
4. Change directory to / and unpack the tarball with /usr/bin/tar
using the "xvof" option ("o" is very important to set the file
ownership to "root")
** Example for i386/AMD64:
$ cd /tmp
$ /usr/sfw/bin/wget \
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
$ sum -x md5 ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
c5697c5bc5f14bfa6a2c5708ed25e4f2
ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
# cd /
# sync ; sync
# bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2 | \
tar -xvof -
# sync ; sync
** Example for SPARC:
$ cd /tmp
$ /usr/sfw/bin/wget \
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
$ sum -x md5 ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
e0cc96c747f87094388abd62c4694816
ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
# cd /
# sync ; sync
# bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20090420_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2 | \
tar xvof -
# sync ; sync
*** Using ksh93 as /sbin/sh:
After installation of the tarball the following steps will replace
the original Bourne shell with ksh93:
** Example for i386/AMD64:
# cp /usr/bin/i86/ksh93 /sbin/ksh93
# [[ ! -f /sbin/bsh ]] && mv /sbin/sh /sbin/bsh || rm /sbin/sh
# mv /sbin/ksh93 /sbin/sh
# sync ; sync
** Example for SPARC:
# cp /usr/bin/sparcv7/ksh93 /sbin/ksh93
# [[ ! -f /sbin/bsh ]] && mv /sbin/sh /sbin/bsh || rm /sbin/sh
# mv /sbin/ksh93 /sbin/sh
# sync ; sync
**** Notes:
* This tarball matches ksh93t+ (=ast-ksh.2009-03-10) with many
many changes since the last version. Please test the binaries
extensively.
* The following commands have been updated (or added) and now
include common GNU+BSD+AST features:
/usr/bin/bg, /usr/bin/cd, /usr/bin/cksum, /usr/bin/cmp,
/usr/bin/comm, /usr/bin/command, /usr/bin/cut, /usr/bin/fc,
/usr/bin/fg, /usr/bin/getopts, /usr/bin/hash, /usr/bin/head,
/usr/bin/jobs, /usr/bin/join, /usr/bin/kill, /usr/bin/logname,
/usr/bin/mkfifo, /usr/bin/paste, /usr/bin/print, /usr/bin/read,
/usr/bin/rev, /usr/bin/sleep, /usr/bin/sum, /usr/bin/tail,
/usr/bin/tee, /usr/bin/test, /usr/bin/type, /usr/bin/ulimit,
/usr/bin/umask, /usr/bin/unalias, /usr/bin/uniq,
/usr/bin/wait, /usr/bin/wc, /usr/xpg4/bin/tail
* The binaries now are build from a B111-based tree and require
SXCR B110 or higher
* Sources/diffs/webrevs:
+ The diffs between Solaris Nevada B111 and the current
ksh93-integration tree can be obtained via
$ svn diff -r 1446:1483 \
svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype021/usr
or as unified diff
(http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/svn_genunix_org_on_branches_ksh93_gisburn_prototype021_rev_1446_1483.diff.txt
, 1.82MB, MD5 checksum is afbc63ce43d9f416d2500941bb92c0d1).
* "multiline" input mode is now enabled by default in /etc/
ksh.kshrc to match input/editor behaviour of bash.
* /etc/ksh.kshrc now sets a default prompt (PS1) which contains
<username>@<hostname>:<current_directory>$<blank> for normal
users and <username>@<hostname>:<current_directory>#<blank> for
user "root"; the prompt length itself is limited to ~~30
characters to ensure it only occupies ~~1/4 of a standard 80x24
terminal window.
* <esc><ctrl-l> was added to emacs/gmacs mode to clear the screen
(per community requests and to be in sync with bash)
* 64bit binaries and libraries are now included (and used by
default if the hardware is 64bit capable)
* "shcomp", the shell script compiler is now included as /usr/bin
/shcomp.
* AST l10n utilities are stored in /usr/ast/bin/.
* Starting with ksh93s+ multibyte characters can be used for
variable/function/etc.-names. Please test this functionality
extensively.
* The tarball was created using the
build_ksh93_standalone_tarball.sh script which is available in
the base directory of the prototype021 tree.
Note: The script can only be used after a successfull
$ cd usr/src ; (cd tools ; make install) ; make setup ; \
dmake install #-sequence, otherwise the resulting tarball will
be incomplete.
* The tarballs do not provide a manual page for ksh93. Please use
the manual page for ksh93s+ in the meantime.
* The ksh93 binaries can be build from source like this:
(Instructions are for Solaris i386/AMD64; SPARC requires minor
adjustments)
1. Pull sources and extract closed bin stuff (files can be
obtained from opensolaris.org):
$ mkdir test_x86 ; cd test_x86
$ svn checkout -r 1483 svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/
ksh93/gisburn/prototype021/usr
$ bzcat <../download/on-closed-bins-nd.i386.tar.bz2 | \
tar -xf -
$ bzcat <../download/on-closed-bins.i386.tar.bz2 | \
tar -xf -
$ cd ..
2. Create opensolaris.sh.
This is the usual opensolaris.sh with the paths adjusted to
match your location of the sources.
Example for the changes applies to opensolaris.sh (for my
workspace):
--- ./test1_x86/usr/src/tools/env/opensolaris.sh
+++ ./opensolaris.sh Sun Jul 30 00:50:08 2006

# This is a variable for the rest of the script - GATE
# doesn't matter to nightly itself
-GATE=testws; export GATE
+GATE=prototype021; export GATE

# Location of encumbered binaries.
ON_CLOSED_BINS="$CODEMGR_WS/closed"; export ON_CLOSED_BINS
3. Run "bldenv":
$ env - SHELL=$SHELL TERM=$TERM HOME=$HOME LOGNAME=$LOGNAME
DISPLAY=$DISPLAY XAUTHORITY=$XAUTHORITY LANG=C LC_ALL=C
PAGER=less MANPATH=$MANPATH /opt/onbld/bin/bldenv
opensolaris.sh #
4. Build it (the quick way):
$ cd prototype021/usr/src
$ export CW_NO_SHADOW=1
$ time nice make setup 2>&1 | tee -a buildlog_setup.log
$ time nice dmake install >buildlog.log 2>&1
