I've already mentioned which forums here at LQ you could probably benefit from. It really seems like this is a double-post. Please try not to double-post.
Sorry about that. But Those are very general forms and I tried searching this topic and nothing found.
I hope there are some place where discussions are only on migration to Linux.
You might be thinking a little too broad. There doesn't appear to be a forum specific to Linux Migrations here at LQ. Things are broken down to either a general topic (like Virtualization) or very specific per-thread problems (like compiles failing with weird errors).
Do you have something like a bullet-list of problems you want to address?
Yes, actually it's a huge list where I am already working on.
I know for most of them there is no direct answer. It's always need a disscusion.
There are lot of differences in HP-UX and Linux, which I need to find it.
So it will be very helpful if there is already existing on net.
Right now, I am going with hit and trial method and finding problem one by one.
I can give you some example.
1) Find all the macro which is only avaliable in HP. Also find corresponding macro in Red-Hat
2) Fill all the external varaiable like errno. where no include needed in HP, but Linux don't work without including header files.
3) strcpy(a, b). If b is NULL it crash on Linux, but not in HP-UX.
This list contain more than 300 items for that I am working on.
Thanks for the help.
I hope very soon Unix to Linux migration forum will also start, as I know currently lot of projects in USA and Canada just started.
