Project 2 how to modify OS/161
Download as PPTX, PDF1 like1,835 views
The document provides instructions for modifying the OS/161 kernel as part of a project for the Introduction to Operating Systems course. It includes steps for creating and editing source files, reconfiguring the kernel, and building user-level utilities, along with troubleshooting compilation errors and using the 'grep' tool for code reading. Additionally, it addresses potential installation issues with CentOS 7 and provides solutions for common errors encountered during the setup.
![Compilation Errors
Problem: When I try to run make depend to make the kernel, I
get the following error:
/bin/sh: cs161-gcc: command not found
make: *** [depend] Error 127
Solution: Use ‘echo $PATH’ to check your $PATH.
export PATH=~/cs161/bin:$PATH
You may need to add that statement to your .bashrc file.

Project 2 how to modify OS/161
- 1. COMP 3500 Introduction to Operating Systems Project 2 – Modifying OS/161 Dr. Xiao Qin Auburn University http://www.eng.auburn.edu/~xqin xqin@auburn.edu 1
- 2. Modifying your kernel • Create a new file ~/cs161/src/kern/main/hello.c • Edit ~/cs161/src/kern/main/main.c which calls the hello function • Before reconfiguring and rebuilding your kernel, you will need to edit ~/cs161/src/kern/conf/conf.kern
- 5. Edit kern/conf/conf.kern cd ~/cs161/src/kern/conf vi conf.kern /main.c #search main.c in conf.kern see also line 374 Add the following line: file main/hello.c
- 6. Create a header file: hello.h 6
- 7. Add #include <hello.h> into main.c 7
- 8. Configure your source code tree 8 cd ~/cs161/src ./configure cd ~/cs161/src/kern/conf ./config ASST0 Why this is important? When should you reconfigure OS161?
- 9. Build the ASST0 kernel. 9 cd ../compile/ASST0 make depend make make install Why this is important?
- 10. Build the user level utilties 10 cd ~/cs161/src make Run OS161 cd ~/cs161/root ./sys161 kernel
- 11. What do you expect? 11
- 12. COMP 3500 Introduction to Operating Systems Project 2 – How to use grep? Dr. Xiao Qin Auburn University http://www.eng.auburn.edu/~xqin xqin@auburn.edu 12
- 13. A Tool for Code Reading You must learn how to use “grep” to improve your source code reading skill. %grep –r “stack” . %grep “stack” *.h
- 14. 14
- 15. Exercise: Code Reading: An Example 2. What bus/busses does OS/161 support? You must search the source code using the most appropriate keywords %cd ~/cs161/src/kern/arch/mips/mips %grep ‘bus’ *.c
- 16. Attention! Please note that missing package in CentOS 7 may cause the installation errors. Please try the following command to install the missing package prior to the tool installations. yum install ncurses-devel 16
- 17. Why ncurses-devel? Problem without ncurses-devel: While trying to configure the cs161-gdb for Project 2, I am encountering a build error: "no termcap library found". Solution: yum install ncurses-devel 17
- 18. Compilation Errors Problem: When I try to run make depend to make the kernel, I get the following error: /bin/sh: cs161-gcc: command not found make: *** [depend] Error 127 Solution: Use ‘echo $PATH’ to check your $PATH. export PATH=~/cs161/bin:$PATH You may need to add that statement to your .bashrc file. 18
