This process is fully automated by a portable Bourne shell +script; all of the above mentioned components are cross-compiled. + +Thus, the most hassle-free way to get started with Midipix is to simply download +the most recent distribution tarball and follow the instructions below. It is, +however, recommended to anyone intending to use Midipix as a development platform +to familiarise themselves with the build process. Other reasons to prefer building +a Midipix distribution yourself include integrating new 3rd party software or local +runtime component patches. At present, a full build from scratch takes about 30 +(thirty) minutes to finish on an 8-core host with eight simultaneous make jobs, +minus the generation of the tarballs. The build script can be obtained from the +following GitHub repository: <https://github.com/lalbornoz/midipix_build>. + +If you obtained a Midipix distribution tarball, extract it into a directory and +drive of your choice, henceforth referred to as target directory; the drive can +be a network drive. Do _not_ use anything but a true UNIX environment tar(1), as +e.g. WinRAR or WinZip handle extracting hard links incorrectly. +If you built Midipix yourself, the target directory is equivalent to the ${PREFIX} +configured in build.vars, which defaults to ${HOME}/midipix. + +At present, providing an interactive Midipix environment still requires the Cygwin +terminal emulator Mintty and a shell; this does not include pseudoterminals, which +are entirely handled by Midipix. Both can be installed via the 64-bit Cygwin setup +program at <https://www.cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe>. + +Once installed, launching a Midipix shell is accomplished by the `midipix.sh' shell +script provided in the target directory from within a Cygwin shell prompt in Mintty +and the target directory. This may either simply be done manually each time, or +automated by a shortcut. As shortcuts cannot be distributed, it can be created by +either: +a) Opening (executing) the VBScript script in the target directory from within the + latter cscript.exe, providing the fully qualified pathname to Mintty, if it differs + from the default value of C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe or +b) manually creating a shortcut to Mintty with `Start in:' set to the target directory + and the following command line: + [ ... ]\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -e sh midipix.sh, or + +References: +Sun, 24 Apr 2016 09:04:08 +0000 [1] musl FAQ <http://www.musl-libc.org/faq.html> + + Midipix status report + Last update: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 10:16:16 +0000 + +The following build status codes are defined: +C -- Complete build w/ at least the default configuration, +B -- Broken, e.g. doesn't work at all or only minimally, +I -- Integrated (e.g. linked against) with other packages, +E -- Extensively tested and confirmed to work by multiple sources, possibly via a testsuite, +P -- Patches needed to build that haven't been committed upstream yet, and +U -- Update to latest stable version or HEAD pending. + +Component type Name Version Status Comments +Host toolchain binutils 2.24.51 C--EPU +Host toolchain gcc 4.6.4 ---EPU Excludes libstdc++ +Host toolchain musl 1.1.12 C-IEPU +Native toolchain binutils 2.24.51 C--EPU +Native toolchain gcc 4.6.4 ---EPU Excludes libstdc++ +Native toolchain gmp 5.1.3 C-IEPU +Native toolchain libelf 0.8.13 C-IEP- +Native toolchain mpc 1.0.1 C-IEPU +Native toolchain mpfr 3.1.2 C-IEPU +Native toolchain musl 1.1.12 C-IEPU +Native toolchain perk HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components dalist HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components ntapi HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components ntcon HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components ntctty HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components pemagine HEAD C-IE-- +Runtime components psxscl HEAD C-IE-- Excludes clone(2) and dlopen(3) +Runtime components psxtypes HEAD C-IE-- +3rd party packages apk_tools 2.6.6 C---P- +3rd party packages bash 4.3 C-I-P- Linked against ncursesw +3rd party packages bzip2 1.0.6 C----- +3rd party packages coreutils 8.23 C---P- Needs extensive testing +3rd party packages curl 7.47.1 C---P- +3rd party packages dash 0.5.8 C---P- +3rd party packages diffutils 3.3 C---P- +3rd party packages findutils 4.5.14 C---P- +3rd party packages gawk 4.1.3 C---P- +3rd party packages git 2.7.1 C----- +3rd party packages glib 2.46.2 C---P- +3rd party packages grep 2.22 C---P- +3rd party packages gzip 1.2.4 C----- +3rd party packages hexcurse 1.60.0 C-I-P- Linked against ncursesw +3rd party packages irssi 0.8.18 CB--P- DNS requires clone(2) due to pthreads (see psxscl) +3rd party packages less 481 C-I--- Linked against ncursesw +3rd party packages libarchive 3.1.2 C---P- +3rd party packages libfetch 2.33 C---P- +3rd party packages libffi 3.2.1 C---P- +3rd party packages libressl 2.2.6 C-I-P- +3rd party packages libz 1.2.8.2015.05.20 C----- +3rd party packages make 3.81 C---P- +3rd party packages mksh R52c C---P- +3rd party packages nano 2.5.3 C-I-P- Linked against ncursesw +3rd party packages ncurses 6.0 C-IEP- ncurses, ncursestw, and ncursesw built +3rd party packages openssh 7.1p2 C-I-P- Linked against libressl +3rd party packages pacman 5.0.1 C----- +3rd party packages patch 2.7 C---P- +3rd party packages perl 5.22.1 ----P- No dlopen(3) (see psxscl,) modules missing +3rd party packages python 3.5.1 -B--P- No dlopen(3) (see psxscl,) modules missing +3rd party packages rsync 3.1.2 C---P- +3rd party packages sed 4.2.2 C---P- +3rd party packages tar 1.28 C---P- +3rd party packages tcsh 6.19.00 C-I-P- +3rd party packages util_linux 2.27.1 C---P- Needs extensive testing +3rd party packages which 2.21 C----- +3rd party packages xz 5.2.2 C---P- +3rd party packages zsh 5.2 C-I-P- Linked against ncursesw + + Midipix roadmap/TODO list + Last update: Tue, 26 Apr 2016 10:41:37 +0000 + +1) slibtool, +2) psxscl: clone(2) system call implementation. + This is required by all 3rd party packages that make use of threads such as Irssi. +3) psxscl: dlopen(3) system call implementation. + This is required by all 3rd party packages that have runtime modules such as Perl and Python. +4) gdb: native port, +5) [ ... ] + +vim:expandtab sw=8 ts=8 tw=0 nowrap @@ -122,8 +122,12 @@ if [ $(( ${BUILD_NFINI} + ${BUILD_NSKIP} )) -ge 0 ] \ -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 2 -type d -not -path ./native) \ "Create \`Midipix mintty shell' shortcut.vbs" midipix.sh;
