 02 Feb 2007, Exaos Lee, Bug Report, Compiling failed with SVN3562 under Ubuntu 6.10 
|
I tried to solve the problem by adding a ";". It was wrong. In fact, the macro "_syscall0(..)" doesn't need the ";".
I searched and found that somebody said "the overall _syscall$magicnumber will disappear". I don't mind whether the "_syscall" disappear or not. I just
want to compile the code and do my job. I deleted the additional ";" and recompiled. The error output is as the attachment [elog:335/1]. |
 02 Feb 2007, Exaos Lee, Bug Fix, Problem solved by Re-define _syscall0(...)

OK, I searched and found that my kernel doesn't support "_syscall0" any more. So I patched the system.c as the following (from line 954):

|
I rearanged the files in "examples/experiment" as the attached "mtest_exp.zip". I re-write the start/stop script as the attached "daq.sh". The script "daq.sh"
can be re-used for many experiments. The user only needs to provide an script "daq_env.sh" as the following containing the settings for the experiment
environment.

The "mvmestd.h" uses the following function to open a VME device:

I found that the "driver/vme/sis3100/sis3100.c" uses the implementation as:

Coding in Python is faster than in C (but running slower). So, some python interfaces are useful for testing purpose. I hope you may like the PyMVME module
for VME bus testing. |
