Hi!
----
2008-11-14: ksh93 update tarballs for Solaris Nevada+Indiana
These tarballs are intended to be installed over an existing OpenSolaris
>= B84 i386 or SPARC installation and provide ast-ksh.2008-11-04
>(ksh93t_20081104) and match PSARC/2008/094 ("ksh93 Update 1" ;
>http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2008/094)/ +
>PSARC/2008/344 ("ksh93 Integration Update 1 Amendments 1" ;
>http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/arc/caselog/2008/344/)
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:
- /etc/ksh.kshrc now sets a default prompt (PS1) for interactive
sessions (see NOTES below)
- Many bugfixes, primarily focussing on stability, improved error
checking, performance and fixing support for large, complex
variable trees.
- Many closed-source binaries are replaced with opensource versions
- The shell script compiler "shcomp" is now included
- Many new demos including:
- "shircbot" (IRC bot demo)
- "crawlsrccomments" (two-phased source code comment+license
extrator which uses serialised variable trees for
storage+caching)
- "filemutexdemo1" (demo to show ksh93's new type system and
an implementation of filesystem-based read/write locks)
- "multifollow" (poll(1) demo which run multiple "tail -f")
- "shnote" (utility to read/write pastebin.ca)
- "shtwitter" (access twitter.com service and push blog
entries)
- "shcalc" (command-line ISO C99 floating-point calculator)
- "shpiano" (audio demo)
- "shtinyurl" (tool to generate short tinyurl.com URLs)
- "svcproptree1" (SMF demo)
- "test_net_sctp" (SCTP protocol demo)
- "shman" (early prototype of a /usr/bin/man rewrite)

... and much more...
**** Install instructions:
*** Basic installation:
1. Download the tarball:
+ i386/AMD64:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
+ SPARC:
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
2. Verify the MD5 checksum:
+ i386/AMD64: MD5
(ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)=
2a757c0e9476962d55fda9210e14c512
+ SPARC: MD5
(ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)=
c9fe186651073fd84e974bd4f77667cc
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_20081114_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
$ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5
ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2
MD5(ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_i386.tar.bz2)=
2a757c0e9476962d55fda9210e14c512
# cd /
# sync ; sync
# bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20081114_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_20081114_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
$ /usr/sfw/bin/openssl md5
ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2
MD5(ksh93_integration_20081114_snapshot_sparc.tar.bz2)=
c9fe186651073fd84e974bd4f77667cc
# cd /
# sync ; sync
# bzcat </tmp/ksh93_integration_20081114_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.2008-11-04) with many
many changes since the last version. Please test the binaries
extensively.
* The binaries now are build from a B97_pre1-based tree and
require SXCR B84 or higher
* Sources/diffs/webrevs:
+ The diffs between Solaris Nevada B97_pre1 and the current
ksh93-integration tree can be obtained via
svn diff -r 1175:1285
svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype012/usr
or as unified diff
(http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/ksh93-integration/downloads/svn_genunix_org_on_branches_ksh93_gisburn_prototype012_rev_1175_1285.diff.txt
, 4.5MB, MD5 checksum is 8df042b6f4768158883348dba1628c19).
* "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 ~~32
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 usr/-directory of the prototype012 tree.
Note: The script can only be used after a successfull $ 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 1285
svn://svn.genunix.org/on/branches/ksh93/gisburn/prototype012/usr
$ bzcat <../download/
on-closed-bins-nd-b97_pre1.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
@@ -43,10 +43,10 @@
# This is a variable for the rest of the script -
# GATE doesn't matter to nightly itself
-GATE=testws; export GATE
+GATE=test1_x86; export GATE
# CODEMGR_WS - where is your workspace at (or what should
# nightly name it)
-CODEMGR_WS="/export/$GATE"; export CODEMGR_WS
+CODEMGR_WS="/home/test001/ksh93/on_build1/$GATE"
+export CODEMGR_WS
# 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 test_x86/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
