This is a CVS tree containing the Linux C Library sources, versions
4.5.7 though 4.5.19. If you don't already have CVS, get my binary
distribution for Linux, which I uploaded some days ago. It also
contains all the docs. Note that I will *not* support the cvs binaries.
READ the CVS paper, cvs-paper.ps.gz. Really.
Put the tree under /home/Master:
cd /home
tar xzf libc-cvs-4.5.19.tar.gz
export CVSROOT=/home/Master
cd /usr/src
cvs checkout libc-linux
cvs checkout libc-include
[...take a cup of tee...]
cd libc-include
ln -s ../linux/include/asm asm
ln -s ../linux/include/linux linux
cd netinet
ln -s ip_tcp.h tcp.h
ln -s ip_udp.h udp.h
cd /usr
mv include include.old
ln -s src/libc-include include
cd /usr/src/libc-linux
[...hack away..]
I intend this to be used by the linux activists is a base for hacking.
It's very nice to be able to just try out any hacks without the worry to loose
the original. You can always look at the diffs between arbitrary revisions or
dates. To see what has changed in the C Library between LIBC_4_5_7 and LIBC_4_5_8
do:
cvs rdiff -u -r LIBC_4_5_7 -r LIBC_4_5_8 libc-linux
To see the changes between Linux 0.99.14 and pl14e do:
cvs rdiff -u -r LINUX_0_99_14 -r LINUX_0_99_14E linux
Included in this tree is:
* libc-linux LIBC_4_5_7, LIBC_4_5_8, LIBC_4_5_9, LIBC_4_5_10
LIBC_4_5_11, LIBC_4_5_12, LIBC_4_5_13, LIBC_4_5_14,
LIBC_4_5_15, LIBC_4_5_16, LIBC_4_5_17, LIBC_4_5_18,
LIBC_4_5_19
* libc-include LIBC_4_5_7, LIBC_4_5_8, LIBC_4_5_9, LIBC_4_5_10
LIBC_4_5_11, LIBC_4_5_12, LIBC_4_5_13, LIBC_4_5_14,
LIBC_4_5_15, LIBC_4_5_16, LIBC_4_5_17, LIBC_4_5_18,
LIBC_4_5_19
IMPORTANT: Please, please, if it can be avoided, DO *NOT* delete/move any
files or directories. If you don't need them anymore (e.g. linux/drivers
comes to mind), just leave them where they are and don't use/compile them.
This makes merging in diffs from the main Linux distribution soo much easier.
Have fun,
Dirk
