Hi, I tried to compile the tux daemon for OpenWrt (for an Asus WL-500GD) and I also faced a problem:
The available glib is an old one (version 1.2), so the references to libgthread don't work. I tried to compile a more recent one (v 2.0.7), but it requires several other libraries -- libiconv, gettext... -- which are not provided with uClibC. This was quite laborious, so I gave up and started looking at the deamon's source code. Now, as Philippe says: >Apparently all pthreads are handled through processes on ARM, >I've seen the same with apache2-mpm-worker where what should be >plenty of threads becoming standalone processes. >Probably a kind of thread emulation if the ARM arch doesn't allow >native support of threads, no idea... I don't have much experience with threads, but I am wondering: would it be interesting to create a specific version of tuxdaemon for embedded systems, based on forks and no longer on threads ? It might be handled more reliably, be easier to compile using the different SDKs and should not require lots of modifications. Any advice ?
