105 | 1 This is a list of the status of GNU Emacs on various machines and systems. |
538 | 2 |
1630 | 3 For each system and machine, we give the configuration name you should |
4 pass to the `configure' script to prepare to build Emacs for that | |
5 system/machine. | |
149 | 6 |
1630 | 7 The `configure' script uses the configuration name to decide which |
8 machine and operating system description files `src/config.h' should | |
9 include. The machine description files are all in `src/m', and have | |
10 names similar to, but not identical to, the machine names used in | |
11 configuration names. The operating system files are all in `src/s', | |
12 and are named similarly. See the `configure' script if you need to | |
13 know which configuration names use which machine and operating system | |
14 description files. | |

22 Here are the configurations Emacs is intended to work with, with the | |
23 corresponding configuration names. You can postpend version numbers | |
24 to operating system names (i.e. sunos4.1) or architecture names (i.e. | |
25 hppa1.1). If you leave out the version number, the `configure' script | |
26 will configure Emacs for the latest version it knows about. | |

30 18.52 worked on system version 4. Previous Emacs versions were |
105 | 31 known to work on previous system versions. |
32 | |
1630 | 33 If you are using older versions of their operating system, you may |
34 need to edit `src/config.h' to use `m/alliant1.h' (on version 1) or | |
35 `m/alliant.h' (on versions 2 and 3). | |

47 Small changes for 18.38 were merged in 18.39. It is mostly | |
48 working, but at last report a bug sometimes causes Emacs to | |
49 grab very large amounts of memory. No fix or explanation | |
50 has yet been reported. It may be possible to find this bug | |
51 if you find which Emacs command it happens within and then | |
52 run that command with a breakpoint set at malloc. | |
53 | |
54 The 5.2u370 compiler is so brain damaged that it is not | |

128 18.52 worked. If you have strange troubles with dumping |
1630 | 129 Emacs, delete the last few lines from `src/m/7300.h' and recompile. |
538 | 130 These lines are supposed to produce a sharable executable. |
105 | 131 |
1630 | 132 `src/m/7300.h' defines SHORTNAMES because operating system versions |
105 | 133 older than 3.5 did not support long symbol names. Version 3.5 does |
538 | 134 support them, so you can remove the #define SHORTNAMES in that |

221 WARNING: If you compile Emacs with the "-O" compiler switch, you | |
222 must also use the "-q enter_exits" switch so that all functions have | |
223 stack frames. Otherwise routines that call `alloca' all lose. | |
224 | |
225 A kernel bug in some system versions causes input characters to be lost | |
226 occasionally. | |

105 | 235 |
236 18.36 worked on versions 1.2 and 2.0 of the operating system. | |
237 | |
1630 | 238 On UTX/32 2.0, use pn-gould-bsd4.3. |
105 | 239 |
1630 | 240 On UTX/32 1.2 and UTX/32S 1.0, use pn-gould-bsd4.2 and note that |
241 compiling `lib-src/sorted-doc' tickles a compiler bug: remove the -g | |
538 | 242 flag to cc in the makefile. |
105 | 243 |
244 UTX/32 1.3 has a bug in the bcopy library routine. Fix it by | |
1630 | 245 #undef BSTRING in `src/m/gould.h'. |
105 | 246 |
247 Version 19 incorporates support for releases 2.1 and later of UTX/32. | |
248 A site running a pre-release of 2.1 should #define RELEASE2_1 in config.h. | |
249 | |

252 Version 19 supposedly works. | |
253 | |
1630 | 254 Honeywell XPS100 (xps100-honeywell-sysv) |
105 | 255 |
256 Config file added in version 19. | |
257 | |
1630 | 258 HP 9000 series 200 or 300 (m68k-hp-bsd or m68k-hp-hpux7.) |
105 | 259 |
1422 | 260 Version 19 works under BSD. |
261 | |
105 | 262 These machines are 68000-series CPUs running HP-UX |
263 (a derivative of sysV with some BSD features) or BSD 4.3 ported by Utah. | |
1630 | 264 The operating system suffix determines which system Emacs is built for. |
105 | 265 |
266 Series 200 HPUX runs Emacs only if it has the "HP-UX upgrade". | |
267 | |
577 | 268 If you are running HP-UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional |
269 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP-UX | |
270 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
271 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |
272 | |
105 | 273 Note that HP has used two incompatible assembler syntaxes, |
274 and has recently changed the format of C function frames. | |
1630 | 275 `src/crt0.c' and `src/alloca.s' have been conditionalised for the new |
105 | 276 assembler and new function-entry sequence. You may need to define |
277 OLD_HP_ASSEMBLER if you are using an older hpux version. If you | |
278 have an official (bought from HP) series 300 machine you have | |
279 the new assembler. Kernels that are 5.+ or later have new | |
280 assembler. A Series 200 that has been upgraded to a 68010 | |
281 processor and a 5.+ kernel has the new compiler. | |
282 | |
283 Define C_SWITCH_MACHINE to be +X to make a version of Emacs that | |
284 runs on both 68010 and 68020 based hp-ux's. | |
285 | |
286 Define HPUX_68010 if you are using the new assembler, for | |
287 a system that has a 68010 without a 68881. This is to say, | |
288 a s200 (upgraded) or s310. | |
289 | |
290 Define the symbol HPUX_NET if you have the optional network features | |
291 that include the `netunam' system call. This is refered to as | |
292 Network Services (NS/9000) in HP literature. | |
293 | |
294 HP 9000 series 500: not supported. | |
295 | |
296 The series 500 has a seriously incompatible memory architecture | |
297 which relocates data in memory during execution of a program, | |
298 and support for it would be difficult to implement. | |
299 | |
1630 | 300 HP 9000 series 800 (Spectrum) (hppa1.0-hp-hpux) |
105 | 301 |
302 These files support HP's Precision Architecture machines | |
303 running HP-UX. It has been moderately tested on the Series | |
304 840. | |
305 | |
577 | 306 If you are running HP-UX release 8.0 or later, you need the optional |
307 "C/ANSI C" software in order to build Emacs (older releases of HP-UX | |
308 do not require any special software). If the file "/etc/filesets/C" | |
309 exists on your machine, you have this software, otherwise you do not. | |

105 | 315 |
1630 | 316 High Level Hardware Orion 1/05 (clipper-highlevel-bsd) |
105 | 317 |
318 Changes merged in 18.52. This is the one with the Clipper cpu. | |
319 Note that systems which lack NFS need LOAD_AVE_TYPE changed to `double'. | |
320 | |
321 C compiler has a bug; it loops compiling eval.c. | |
322 Compile it by hand without optimization. | |
323 | |
1630 | 324 IBM PS/2 (i386-ibm-aix1.1 or i386-ibm-aix1.2) |
105 | 325 |
326 Changes merged in version 19. You may need to copy | |
327 /usr/lib/samples/hft/hftctl.c to the Emacs src directory. | |
328 | |
1630 | 329 i386-ibm-aix1.1 may not work with certain new X window managers, and |
330 may be suboptimal. | |
538 | 331 |
1630 | 332 IBM RS/6000 (rs6000-ibm-aix) |
105 | 333 |
1378 | 334 Changes merged in version 19. Currently the configuration |
335 does not actually depend on the version of AIX. | |
105 | 336 |
1297 | 337 Compiling with -O using the IBM compiler has been known |

342 18.52 worked on both operating systems. |
1630 | 343 Use romp-ibm-bsd for the 4.2-like system and romp-ibm-aix for AIX. |
105 | 344 |
345 On BSD, if you have trouble, try compiling with a different compiler. | |
346 | |
347 On AIX, the file /usr/lib/samples/hft/hftctl.c must be compiled into | |
348 hftctl.o, with this result left in the src directory (hftctl.c is | |
349 part of the standard AIX distribution). | |
350 | |
351 window.c must not be compiled with -O on AIX. | |
352 | |
1630 | 353 Integrated Solutions `Optimum V' (m68k-isi-bsd4.2 or -bsd4.3) |
105 | 354 |
355 18.52 said to work on some sort of ISI machine. | |
356 Version 18.45 worked (running on a Optimum V (VME bus, 68020) | |
357 BSD 4.2 (3.05e) system). 18.42 is reported to work on | |
358 a Qbus 68010 system. Has not been tried on `WorkStation' `Cluster | |
359 Compute Node' `Cluster WorkStation' or `Server Node' (Love the | |
360 StudLYCaps) | |
361 | |
362 Compilation with -O is rumored to break something. | |
363 | |
364 On recent system versions, you may need to undefine the macro UMAX | |
1630 | 365 in `lib-src/loadst.c' and `src/getpagesize.h'. They stupidly defined this |
105 | 366 in a system header file, which confuses Emacs (which thinks that UMAX |
367 indicates the Umax operating system). | |
368 | |
1630 | 369 Intel 386 (i386-unknown-isc, i386-unknown-esix, i386-unknown-xenix, |
370 i386-intsys-sysv, i386-unknown-sysv5.2.2, i386-unknown-sysv5.3, | |
371 and i386-unknown-bsd4.2) | |
105 | 372 |
538 | 373 18.58 should support a wide variety of operating systems. |
1630 | 374 Make sure to use i386-unknown-isc2.2 for Interactive 386/ix version |
375 2.2 or later. | |
376 Use i386-unknown-esix for Esix. | |
377 Use i386-intsys-sysv for Integrated Solutions 386 machines. | |
378 It may also be correct for Microport systems. | |
545 | 379 It isn't clear what to do on an SCO system. The system's C |
380 preprocessor doesn't seem to handle the src subdirectory's Make | |
381 trickery, so you will probably need to install the GNU C preprocessor. | |
538 | 382 |
105 | 383 If you are using Xenix, see notes above under Xenix. |
384 | |
385 Some sysV.3 systems seem to have bugs in `opendir'; | |
386 for them, alter `config.h' to define NONSYSTEM_DIR_LIBRARY | |
387 and undefine SYSV_SYSTEM_DIR. | |
388 | |
389 If you use optimization on V.3, you may need the option -W2,'-y 0' | |
390 to prevent certain faulty optimization. | |
391 | |
149 | 392 On 386/ix, to link with shared libraries, add #define USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES |
393 to config.h. | |
394 | |
105 | 395 There is no consistency in the handling of certain system header files |
396 on V.3. | |
397 | |
398 Some versions have sys/sioctl.h, and require it in sysdep.c. | |
399 But some versions do not have sys/sioctl.h. | |
149 | 400 For a given version of the system, this may depend on whether you have |
401 X Windows or TCP/IP. Define or undefine NO_SIOCTL_H in config.h | |
402 according to whether you have the file. | |
403 | |
404 Likewise, some versions have been known to need sys/ttold.h, sys/stream.h, | |
405 and sys/ptem.h included in sysdep.c. If your system has these files, | |
406 try defining NEED_PTEM_H in config.h if you have trouble without it. | |
407 | |
408 You may find that adding -I/usr/X/include or -I/usr/netinclude or both | |
409 to CFLAGS avoids compilation errors on certain systems. | |
410 | |
105 | 411 Some versions convince sysdep.c to try to use `struct tchars' |
412 but define `struct tc' instead; add `#define tchars tc' | |
413 to config.h to solve this problem. | |

425 ANSI C compiler version 3.10. |
105 | 426 |
1490 | 427 Most irix3.3 systems do not have an ANSI C compiler, but a few do. |
428 If you are using the ANSI C compiler, you may need to add | |
429 #define C_SWITCH_MACHINE -cckr | |
430 to config.h. | |
105 | 431 |
1490 | 432 There is a bug in IRIX that can sometimes leave ptys owned by |
433 root with a permission of 622. This causes malfunctions in use | |
434 of subprocesses of Emacs. This may be fixed in IRIX 4.0.5. | |

1630 | 446 Masscomp (m68k-masscomp-rtu) |
105 | 447 |
448 18.36 worked on a 5500DP running RTU v3.1a and compiler version 3.2 | |
449 with minor fixes that are included in 18.37. However, bizarre behavior | |
450 was reported for 18.36 on a Masscomp (model and version unknown but probably | |
451 a 68020 system). The report sounds like a compiler bug. | |
452 | |
453 A compiler bug affecting statements like | |
454 unsigned char k; unsigned char *p;... x = p[k]; | |
455 has been reported for "C version 1.2 under RTU 3.1". We do not wish | |
456 to take the time to install the numerous workarounds required to | |
457 compensate for this bug; go complain to Masscomp. | |
458 | |
1630 | 459 For RTU version 3.1, define FIRST_PTY_LETTER to be 'p' in `src/s/rtu.h' |
105 | 460 (or #undef and redefine it in config.h) so that ptys will be used. |
461 | |
462 GNU Emacs is said to have no chance of compiling on RTU versions | |
463 prior to v3.0. | |
464 | |
1630 | 465 Megatest (m68k-megatest-bsd) |
105 | 466 |
467 Emacs 15 worked; do not have any reports about Emacs 16 or 17 | |
468 but any new bugs are probably not difficult. | |
469 | |
1630 | 470 Mips (mips-mips-riscos, mips-mips-riscos4.0, or mips-mips-bsd) |
105 | 471 |
149 | 472 Changes merged in 18.39. Some fixes in 18.56. |
105 | 473 |
1630 | 474 Use mips-mips-riscos4.0 for RISCOS version 4. |
475 Use mips-mips-bsd with the BSD world. | |
105 | 476 |
1630 | 477 Note that the proper configuration names for DECstations are |
478 mips-dec-ultrix and mips-dec-osf. | |
1112 | 479 |
480 If you are compiling with GCC, then you must run fixincludes; | |
481 the alternative of using -traditional won't work because | |
482 the definition of SIGN_EXTEND_CHAR uses the keyword `signed'. | |
483 | |
484 If the SYSV world is the default, then you probably need the following | |
485 line in etc/Makefile: | |
486 | |
487 CFLAGS= -g -systype bsd43 | |
488 | |
489 Some operating systems on MIPS machines give SIGTRAP for division by | |
490 zero instead of the usual signals. The only real solution is to fix | |
491 the system to give a proper signal. | |
492 | |
493 In the meantime, you can change init_data in data.c if you wish. | |
494 Change it to handle SIGTRAP as well as SIGFPE. But this will have a | |
495 great disadvantage: you will not be able to run Emacs under a | |
496 debugger. I think crashing on division by zero is a lesser problem. | |

508 These both worked as of 18.56. If you change `src/ymakefile' so that |
1630 | 509 CFLAGS includes C_OPTIMIZE_SWITCH rather than C_DEBUG_SWITCH, check |
510 out the comments in `src/m/tower32.h' (for System V release 2) or | |

1630 | 539 Pyramid (pyramid-pyramid-bsd) |
105 | 540 |
1297 | 541 You need to build Emacs in the Berkeley universe with |
542 the `ucb' command, as in `ucb make' or `ucb build-install'. | |
543 | |
105 | 544 In OSx 4.0, it seems necessary to add the following two lines |
1630 | 545 to `src/m/pyramid.h': |
105 | 546 #define _longjmp longjmp |
547 #define _setjmp setjmp | |
548 | |
549 In Pyramid system 2.5 there has been a compiler bug making | |
550 Emacs crash just after screen-splitting with Qnil containing 0. | |
551 A compiler that fixes this is Pyramid customer number 8494, | |
552 internal number 1923. | |
553 | |
554 Some versions of the pyramid compiler get fatal | |
555 errors when the -gx compiler switch is used; if this | |
1630 | 556 happens to you, change `src/m/pyramid.h' to define |
105 | 557 C_DEBUG_SWITCH with an empty definition. |
558 | |
559 Some old system versions may require you to define PYRAMID_OLD | |
560 in when alloca.s is preprocessed, in order to define _longjmp and _setjmp. | |

105 | 579 |
595 | 580 Some versions of the operating system give SIGTRAP for division by zero |
581 instead of the usual signals. This causes division by zero | |
582 to make Emacs crash. The system should be fixed to give the proper signal. | |
583 Changing Emacs is not a proper solution, because it would prevent | |
584 Emacs from working under any debugger. But you can change init_data | |
585 in data.c if you wish. | |

1630 | 591 Stride (m68k-stride-sysv) |
105 | 592 |
593 Works (most recent news for 18.30) on their release 2.0. | |
1630 | 594 For release 2.2, see the end of `src/m/stride.h'. |
105 | 595 It may be possible to run on their V.1 system but changes |
596 in the s- file would be needed. | |

1630 | 598 Sun 1, 2 and 3 (m68k-sun-sunos, sparc-sun-sunos, i386-sun-sunos) |
599 | |
600 It's important to include the SunOS version number in the | |
601 configuration name. For example, for SunOS release 4.0 on a Sun 3, | |
602 use `m68k-sun-sunos4.0'; for SunOS release 4.1 on a Sparc, use | |
603 `sparc-sun-sunos4.1'. | |
105 | 604 |
1630 | 605 Use `m68k' for the 68000-based Sun boxes, `sparc' for Sparcstations, |
606 and `i386' for Sun Roadrunners. | |
105 | 607 |
1630 | 608 There are three machine files for the different versions of SunOS |
609 that run on the Motorola 68000 processors. All are derived from | |
610 Berkeley 4.2. Emacs 17 has run on all of them. | |
611 | |
604 | 612 See the file etc/SUNBUG for how to solve problems caused by |
538 | 613 bugs in the "export" version of SunOS 4. |
105 | 614 |
615 If you have trouble using open-network-stream, get the | |
616 distribution of `bind' (the BSD name-server), build libresolv.a, | |
617 and link Emacs with -lresolv. This problem is due to obsolete | |
618 software in the nonshared standard library. | |
619 | |
620 If you want to use SunWindows, define HAVE_SUN_WINDOWS | |
621 in config.h to enable a special interface called `emacstool'. | |
538 | 622 The definition must *precede* the #include "machine.h". |
105 | 623 System version 3.2 is required for this facility to work. |
624 | |
625 We recommend that you instead use the X window system, which | |
626 has technical advantages, is an industry standard, and is also | |
627 free software. | |
628 | |
629 If you are compiling for X windows, and the X window library was | |
630 compiled to use the 68881, then you must edit config.h according | |
1630 | 631 the comments at the end of `src/m/sun3.h'. |
105 | 632 |
633 Note that Emacs on a Sun is not really as big as it looks. | |
634 As dumped, it includes around 200k of zeros between the | |
635 original text section and the original data section | |
636 (now remapped as part of the text). These are never | |
637 swapped in. | |
638 | |
639 To build a single Emacs that will run on Sun 2 and Sun 3 | |
640 HARDWARE, just build it on the Sun 2. | |
641 | |
1630 | 642 Changes for the Sparc architecture were merged in 18.50. Some |
643 people say optimizing compilation does not work; some say that -O2 | |
644 (whatever that is) works perhaps with a small change. | |
105 | 645 |
1630 | 646 Changes for the Roadrunner architecture were merged in 18.51. |

1630 | 738 See comments in `src/m/wicat.h' for things you should change |
105 | 739 depending on the system and compiler version you have. |
740 | |
1630 | 741 Here is a summary of the systems supported: |
742 | |
743 Berkeley 4.1 (bsd4.1) | |
744 | |
745 Works on vaxes. | |
746 | |
747 Berkeley 4.2 (bsd4.2) | |
748 | |
749 Works on several machines. | |
750 | |
751 Berkeley 4.3 (bsd4.3) | |
752 | |
753 Works, on Vaxes at least. | |
754 | |
755 Microport | |
756 | |
757 See under "Intel 386". | |
758 | |
759 System V rel 0 (usg5.0) | |
760 | |
761 Works, on Vaxes and 3bxxx's. | |
762 There are some problems in 18.37 due to shortnames/cccp problems: | |
763 use the emacs 17 cpp if you have it. | |
764 | |
765 System V rel 2 (usg5.2) | |
766 | |
767 Works on various machines. | |
768 On some (maybe all) machines the library -lPW exists and contains | |
769 a version of `alloca'. On these machines, to use it, put | |
770 #define HAVE_ALLOCA | |
771 #define LIB_STANDARD -lPW -lc | |
772 in the `src/m/MACHINENAME.h' file for the machine. | |
773 | |
774 If you find that the character Meta-DEL makes Emacs crash, | |
775 find where function init_sys_modes in sysdep.c sets sg.c_cc[VQUIT] | |
776 and make it store 7 there. I have as yet no evidence of whether | |
777 this problem, known in HP-UX, exists in other system V versions. | |
778 | |
779 System V rel 2.2 (usg5.2.2) | |
780 | |
781 In 5.2.2 AT&T undid, incompatibly, their previous incompatible | |
782 change to the way the nlist library is called. A different s- file | |
783 is used to enable the other interface. | |
784 | |
785 They call themselves the right choice--can't they choose? | |
786 | |
787 Emacs version 18 unexec is currently not working properly | |
788 on 5.2.2. Nobody knows why yet. A workaround is to define | |
789 NO_REMAP. It is not yet known whether this applies to all | |
790 machines running 5.2.2. | |
791 | |
792 System V rel 3 (usg5.3) | |
793 | |
794 Some versions of this system support ptys and BSD-style sockets. | |
795 On such systems, you should define HAVE_PTYS and HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h. | |
796 | |
797 If you want to link Emacs with shared libraries, define | |
798 USG_SHARED_LIBRARIES. | |
799 | |

824 Some versions 3 and earlier of V.4, on the Intel 386 and 860, had |
1630 | 825 problems in the X11 libraries. These prevent Emacs from working |
826 with X. You can use Emacs with X provided your copy of X is based | |

830 X11 library is new enough. |
1630 | 831 |
832 In this context, GSV4 and GSV4i are alternate names for X11R4. | |
833 OL2.* is X11R3 based. OL3 is in between X11R3 and X11R4, and may or | |
834 may not work, depending on who made the Unix system. If the library | |
835 libXol is part of the X distribution, then you have X11R3 and Emacs | |
836 won't work with X. | |
837 | |
838 Most versions of V.4 support sockets. If `/usr/lib/libsocket.so' | |
839 exists, your system supports them. If yours does not, you must add | |
840 #undef HAVE_SOCKETS in config.h, after the inclusion of s-usg5-4.h. | |
841 (Any system that supports Internet should implement sockets.) | |
842 | |
843 Ultrix (bsd4.3) | |
844 | |
845 Recent versions of Ultrix appear to support the features of Berkeley 4.3. | |
846 Ultrix was at the BSD 4.2 level for a long time after BSD 4.3 came out. | |
847 | |
848 Ultrix 3.0 has incompatibilities in its X library if you have the | |
849 Ultrix version of X (UWS version 2.0). To solve them, you need to | |
850 prevent XvmsAlloc.o in Xlib from being used. Israel Pinkas says: | |
851 | |
852 I added the following lines to config.h after the X defines: | |
853 | |
854 #if defined(ultrix) && defined(X11) | |
855 #define OBJECTS_SYSTEM calloc.o | |
856 #endif | |
857 | |
858 Then I ran the following: | |
859 | |
860 ar x /usr/lib/libc.a calloc.o | |
861 | |
862 The problem is said to be gone in UWS version 2.1. | |
863 | |
864 Uniplus 5.2 (unipl5.2) | |
865 | |
866 Works, on Dual machines at least. | |
867 | |
868 VMS (vmsM.N) | |
869 | |
870 The config file s/vms5-5.h may be right for some earlier versions; | |
871 please let us know what happens when you try it in VMS versions 5.0 | |
872 thru 5.4. | |
873 | |
874 Note that Emacs for VMS is usually distributed in a special VMS | |
875 distribution. See the file ../vms/VMSINSTALL for info on moving | |
876 Unix distributions to VMS, and other VMS-related topics. | |
877 | |
878 Xenix (xenix) | |
879 | |
880 Should work in 18.50, but you will need to edit the files | |
881 `lib-src/Makefile' and `src/ymakefile' | |
882 (see the comments that mention "Xenix" for what to change.) | |
883 Compiling Emacs with -O is said not to work. | |
884 | |
885 If you want Emacs to work with Smail (installed as /usr/bin/smail) | |
886 then add the line #define SMAIL to config.h. | |
887 | |
888 The file etc/XENIX suggests some useful things to do to Xenix | |
889 to make the Emacs meta key work. | |
