hai guys,

I am a newbie using solaris.I am trying to insatll a Simulator for my project called Simplescalar.I am facing error called undefined symbol flock in syscall.o(of simulator).

Then I checked syscall.c of simulator.In it I cud find

#define OSF_SYS_flock 131

#if !defined(MIN_SYSCALL_MODE)
/* ADDED BY CALDER 10/27/99 */
case OSF_SYS_flock:
/* get flock() information on the file */
{
regs->regs_R[MD_REG_V0] =
flock(/*fd*/(int)regs->regs_R[MD_REG_A0],
/*cmd*/(int)regs->regs_R[MD_REG_A1]);

/* check for an error condition */
if (regs->regs_R[MD_REG_V0] != (qword_t)-1)
regs->regs_R[MD_REG_A3] = 0;
else /* got an error, return details */
{
regs->regs_R[MD_REG_A3] = -1;
regs->regs_R[MD_REG_V0] = errno;
}
}
break;
#endif

Is it because the complier cud not undersatand what is meant by flock.

Please help me.Eagerly waiting for ur reply

thanx in advance

yes, the compiler doesn't know what "flock" means, its probably a dependency error.. does it require any other outside programs?, next check thru all the source headers and see were "flock" is defined, then include that file in...

but shouldn't this be in the solaris form?
