Installation failure with bake

[ytxing]

• ns3 version : 3-dev Mar 18th
• DCE version : dce-1.10
• Operating system/version (lsb_release -a): ubuntu 16.04
• Libc version (ldd -v): 2.23
• compiler version : 5.4.0

Description of the problem

I am trying to install ns-3-dce with the guidance of the manual. Successfully run
bake.py configure -e dce-ns3-dev
bake.py check
bake.py show
bake.py download
but error happened when running
bake.py build -vvv.
Got the out put like this

Then I try to do make defconfig OPT=yes ARCH=sim and make library OPT=yes ARCH=sim in the net-next-nuse-4.4.0 directory, but only got

Makefile:524: arch/sim/Makefile: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'arch/sim/Makefile'.  Stop.

ands

Makefile:606: arch/sim/Makefile: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'arch/sim/Makefile'.  Stop.

I don't know why it goes like this and HELP PLZ.

What architecture are you on (what is the result of 'uname -i')?

It seems to be a libc issue; perhaps make sure that both 'libc6-dev-i386' and 'libc6-dev-amd64' packages are installed, and try again?

I had the same issue while trying to package net-next-sim / libos.
nixos has a tool that indexes installed filenames (akin to apt-file but with their disposition once installed) and it seems on linux there is no machine/cdefs.h (or maybe on older libcs ?). Looks like a bsd file. liblinux.so is already built by the time I have this error: I wonder if/how we can disable building the rump thingy @thehajime ?

Hello, It seems that even Ubuntu 16 is packed with new libraries and gcc (though may not be latest), because 3-4 months ago I was trying hard to install dce in Ubuntu 16, but go similar errors. Then I was able to install dce in Vmware Ubuntu 16, and it worked.

Yep the file liblinux.so is already there. Is it usable?

uname -r and I get
4.4.0-93-generic
x86_64 ( -i )
'libc6-dev-i386' is installed successfully but 'libc6-dev-amd64' is not. It seems like that amd64 is not avaliable for my machine.
Still get the same information as above.

There are a few things I'd like to suggest based on reading your console output.

1. It appears that you tried to configure dce-ns3-dev only, but your build is failing on net-next-nuse-4.4.0. The latter is not part of dce-ns3-dev, it is part of dce-linux-dev. If you have been reconfiguring, your bakefile.xml might be munged. I recommend that you delete these files and directories: build, source, and bakefile.xml, and start over.
2. Check that you have the file it is complaining about: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/cdefs.h
3. Also, it looks like you are building as root (in /root); I don't know whether this will affect your environment paths as opposed to building as an unprivileged user. There is no need to build DCE as root; I suggest that you try as an unprivileged user.

I have successfully done this on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine this morning:

$ bake.py configure -e net-next-nuse-4.4.0
$ bake.py download
$ bake.py build

If I try with the dce-ns3-dev target, it will eventually fail to build ns-3-dce (due to a separate issue) but it will not fail as you describe above.

Hi! Thanks for advice!

I get another question here (or should I open an issue somewhere else):
There are several examples in the dce code such as dce-mptcp-lte-wifi.cc and I want to run them.
What am I supposed to do? Like should I use dce-linux-dev and change the edition of net-next-nuse because there is an mptcp-trunk-libos branch?

The wiki seems to help but I don't know how it can work with ns3-dce instead of being used alone.

Have a nice day.

Hi,

Actually I am trying to build DCE1.10+NS3.30+mptcp_trunk_libos.
When building mptcp_trunk_libos I got the same problem here:

libc6-dev-i386 and libc are installed but machine/cdefs.h is nowhere to find.

./usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/sys/cdefs.h

Here are all the cdefs.h in my ubuntu 16.04 but none of them seems to be right.
Is there any chance I can build this? Maybe a suggested lower version ubuntu system?
Again, HELP PLZ :0
