How to build for Linux amd64?
Post Posted: Sun Sep 05, 2010 2:00 pm
Hi,

I couldn't find instructions on how to build for Linux 64 bits. I'm using Debian Squeeze. Simply running 'make' doesn't work (wrong architecture):
otto@debian:~/meka/srcs$ make
./buildupd.exe
gcc -I. -I./tools -I./sound -Ilibs -I../include                                         -DARCH_UNIX -DX86_ASM -DASM_SYMBOLS_REQUIRE_UNDERSCORE -DMEKA_SOUND -DMEKA_ZIP -DMEKA_PNG -DMEKA_JOY -DMEKA_Z80_DEBUGGER -Wall -march=pentium -O6 -ffast-math -fno-strength-reduce -funroll-all-loops -fomit-frame-pointer  -DMARAT_Z80 -c meka.c -oobj/meka.o
meka.c:1: error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set
meka.c:1: error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set
make: *** [obj/meka.o] Error 1
otto@debian:~/meka/srcs$


Can anyone help?

Try to remove "-march=pentium" from the Makefile.
I don't think it has ever been tested on a 64-bit architecture so it would likely require other changes.

It went further, then failed. Output: http://pastebin.ca/1933362
Some said in this thread he was sucessful on 0.70, but there aren't any comments about it: http://www.smspower.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11165

Well for once you don't have Allegro installed.

Right.
Now complaining about audio.h.

The sources.txt told me to replace <seal> by <audio> in sound/sound.h, but it was already audio.h.

otto@debian:~/meka/srcs$ make
./buildupd.exe
gcc -I. -I./tools -I./sound -Ilibs -I../include                                         -DARCH_UNIX -DX86_ASM -DASM_SYMBOLS_REQUIRE_UNDERSCORE -DMEKA_SOUND -DMEKA_ZIP -DMEKA_PNG -DMEKA_JOY -DMEKA_Z80_DEBUGGER -Wall  -O6 -ffast-math -fno-strength-reduce -funroll-all-loops -fomit-frame-pointer  -DMARAT_Z80 -c meka.c -oobj/meka.o
In file included from shared.h:95,
                 from meka.c:11:
./sound/sound.h:18:57: error: audio.h: No such file or directory

                 from meka.c:11:

Have you installed SEAL ?
Double-check whats the filename is your distribution.

Now I do. It didn't help, though.

Hi

I can compile Meka under Debian amd64, but can't link it because of 32bits asm.
To compile you need to install libseal-dev and libxxf86dga-dev if you don't have it.
Also you need to modify sound/sound.h changing:

#include "audio.h" // Official SEAL distribute name

//#include "seal.h" // Debian package header file was renamed to seal.h

by

//#include "audio.h" // Official SEAL distribute name
#include "seal.h" // Debian package header file was renamed to seal.h

Once this is done, you can compile, but the proccess stops at link time.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that also you need to modify the Makefile deleting the ocurrences of "-march=pentium"

Hi again.

Ok, now I have Meka build under Debian amd64, this is how I did it:

- First you need to install this packages if you don't have it:
liballegro4.2-dev
libseal-dev
libxxf86dga-dev

- Modify sound/sound.h changing:
#else
// Uncomment the appropriate:
#include "audio.h" // Official SEAL distribute name
//#include "seal.h" // Debian package header file was renamed to seal.h
// FIXME: Need to automate this of use some Makefile trickery to detect.
#endif

by

#else
// Uncomment the appropriate:
//#include "audio.h" // Official SEAL distribute name
#include "seal.h" // Debian package header file was renamed to seal.h
// FIXME: Need to automate this of use some Makefile trickery to detect.
#endif

- Modify Makefile:
* Change where it says:
#---[ UNIX/GCC ]---------------------------------------

ifeq ($(SYSTEM), unix)

This line:
DEF_OS = -DARCH_UNIX -DX86_ASM -DASM_SYMBOLS_REQUIRE_UNDERSCORE

By this one:
DEF_OS = -DARCH_UNIX -DX86_64 -DASM_SYMBOLS_REQUIRE_UNDERSCORE

* Change:
En
CFLAGS += -Wall -march=pentium -O6 -ffast-math -fno-strength-reduce -funroll-all-loops -fomit-frame-pointer
by
CFLAGS += -Wall -march=x86-64 -O6 -ffast-math -fno-strength-reduce -funroll-all-loops -fomit-frame-pointer

* Change:
OTYPE = elf
by
OTYPE = elf64

* And finally change:
En
OBJ_BLIT = $(OD)/blit.o $(OD)/blitintf.o $(OD)/eagle.o $(OD)/hq2x.o $(OD)/hq2x16.o $(OD)/hq2x32.o

By
OBJ_BLIT = $(OD)/blit.o $(OD)/blitintf.o $(OD)/eagle.o $(OD)/hq2x.o

This last change removes the hq2x16 and hq2x32 support. This is because hq2x16.asm and hq2x32.asm does not compile under 64bits, so we need to make one more change:
* In file srcs/blit.c, change:
Cambios en blit.c
void Blit_Fullscreen_HQ2X (void)
{
// Perform HQ2X into double buffer
// FIXME-OPT: Apply on full width.
hq2x_16(
(unsigned char *)((u16 *)screenbuffer->line[blit_cfg.src_sy] + 0),
(unsigned char *)((u16 *)Blit_Buffer_Double->line[blit_cfg.src_sy * 2] + 0),
MAX_RES_X+32, cur_drv->y_res, (MAX_RES_X+32)*4);
Blit_Fullscreen_Misc();
Blit_Fullscreen_CopyStretch(Blit_Buffer_Double, 2, 2);
}

por
void Blit_Fullscreen_HQ2X (void)
{
Blit_Fullscreen_Eagle();
}

This will make the HQ2X blit work as if it were Eagle.

I hope this can help.

Thanks for the info.
Does it works well? (under a 64-bits architecture, I mean)

ok, with sound (Linux Voxware) it is so slow that is impossible to test nothing.
With no sound It works really fine, but some systems do not work.
I have tested ColecoVision, SG1000, Master System and Game Gear, the first two works really fine except for the lack of sound. Master and GameGear do not work, I get only color screens and meka writes to console in a bucle:

video_c.c::Decode_Tile_C() is empty,
tiles will not be showing.


If you give me an e-mail, I will send you some screenshots.

Hi, thanks for answering.

Since it's not really working well for now and the installing process isn't that simple (some of those packages aren't in the official repos), I'll wait a bit more to test again.

The Decode_Tile_C function has to be created based on the X86 assembly version. It is a pretty trivial function to implement. You can give it a look or I will someday.

I installed those packages from the official Debian repos.

Sorry, I can help with asm, long timesince the last time I programmed in assembly.

Anyway if I have time, I will give it a try.

You are right, It is in lenny:
packages.debian.org/lenny/libseal-dev

How about making another Meka release once all the Linux compilation issues have bee fixed?

I am taking patches if any (but wouldn't be able to test them for Linux).
