Linux implementation notes

Notes

  • NASD functionality is not yet available in the Linux kernel
  • See Compiling NASD for instructions on compiling NASD on Linux
  • The NASD linux port assumes RedHat Linux version 5.1 with glibc.
  • NASD linux has been developed and tested on x86 linux. It has not been tested on other platforms.
  • On x86 processors, NASD uses on-chip cycle counters for timing.

  • NASD_CMU_PDL

    The Parallel Data Lab at Carnegie Mellon University has built a set of support functionality into the Digital Unix kernel, and interfaces to this functionality are provided in a separate library, libpdl.a. If this functionality is available to you, you can set the location of the library and include files by including the necessary link commands for the library in the ARCHLIBS definition that applies to your platform in NASD_site.def, and the necessary commands to find the include files in SARCHDEFINES in that same file. You should also be sure that NASD_CMU_PDL is defined to 1 in NASD_site.def if you have this support enabled, or that it is defined to 0 if you do not.
