SUMMARY ------- This is a self-contained port of the popular distcc distributed compilation package for AmigaOS. For more information and documentation on distcc please visit the web site at http://www.distcc.org/ Most of the distcc tools are available including: distcc - client for dispatching compiles distccd - server for servicing compile requests distccmon-text - text based monitor tool distccmon-amiga - GUI based monitor tool FEATURES -------- The following features are currently disabled in this port: - pump mode - inetd mode - syslog support - ssh support - daemon detaching - masquerading - job lifetime limit (sockets timeout instead) All remaining features including the multi-threaded pre-forking daemon, lzo compression and GUI monitor are available. When combined with GNU make's parallel build feature and a pool of servers, the distcc package can save a lot of time compiling larger projects. INSTALLATION ------------ Copy distcc/SDK SDK: ALL CLONE Next either setup a home directory and the HOME environment variable or use the DISTCC_DIR to point to where distcc files will be stored. The distcc client maintains a set of files in the .distcc directory. Finally, setup the DISTCC_HOSTS environment variable or use the HOME:.dists/hosts file to describe your network and you are ready to do distributed compiles. Prefixing your project compile lines with "distcc" will now distribute the compile to the hosts you have just configured. The distccd daemon must be running on each host. Please see the distcc documentation and use the --help option on the distcc client and distccd server for more details. SECURITY -------- The distccd daemon uses simple IP filtering for some security specified with the --allow option. Don't forget you can also specify a network of nodes such as a LAN. For example, distccd --allow 10.10.10.0/24 Will allow all the nodes in your 10.10.10.0 LAN. DISTCCD STATS ------------- The distccd daemon keeps track of some statistics which can be retrieved via the built-in HTTP server activated with the --stats option. See the distccd documentation for more details. Note the dcc_free_space metric will always return zero if you use RAM: to store your temporary files. HISTORY ------- 53.1 - Ported distcc 3.1 package - Added reset button to the GUI monitor - GUI now displays synchronized timelines - Fixed bug in distccmon-amiga which was not removing expired timer messages - Added child process ID column to GUI monitor - Reduced use of signals to start sub-processes - Compiled with SDK 53.13 - Reworked archive into standard SDK layout - Converted to new versioning scheme - Requires AmigaOS 4.1 or higher 2.18.3-8 - another fix for the distccd command searching - changed monitor update rate from .75 s to .5 s 2.18.3-7 - fixed distccd command searching - disabled DOS requesters in distcc and distccd - compiled with clib2 1.200 2.18.3-6 - compiled with SDK 51.22 - added process birth handshake to distcc and distccd - fixed distcc error handling when server is unavailable - fixed distccd waitpid which could leave acceptors hanging - fixed distccd premature exit - increased accuracy of cpp state reporting - remote compiles now have a slightly higher task priority - changed size and layout of GUI monitor 2.18.3-5 - compiled with beta SDK 51.21 - acceptors exit with EINTR with ctrl-c now - reduced acceptor lifetime to 25 jobs - fixed makefile to link with correct clib2-ts flavour - reworked main daemon processing loop so that child processes are always collected correctly - no longer crashes if daemon is interrupted while starting up 2.18.3-4 - compiled with beta SDK 51.20 - should no longer report elapsed time as a very large number - removed all Forbid() calls and changed ctrl-c breaking to use ProcessScan() - removed Amiga-specific limits on number of processes - now returns the actual errno from an interrupt - added breaking of child processes launched by acceptors - added precondition checking to wait routines - now uses death messages to synchronize with child processes 2.18.3-3 - compiled with beta SDK 51.17 - fixed some new compile warnings from the updated GCC - applied argv fixes from Michael Donohue - fixed for IDOS->GetProcSegList() API change - updated the docs - removed recursion safeguard tracing debug messages 2.18.3-2 - fixed distcc ctrl-c breaking to be more responsive - distccd now won't shut down until the parent process receives a break signal - distccd acceptor name changed - errno and h_errno are now threadsafe (requires bsdsocket.library 4.275 or higher) - updated to use clib2 from CVS dated 2005-10-26 - fixed bug which ignored CTRL-C if the distccd daemon was run from AmigaShell - fixed loggers to be thread-safe - implemented recursion safeguard - changed distcc to redirect stderr to stdout by default instead of /dev/null 2.18.3-1 - ported distcc 2.18.3 package - various threading fixes required - modified to use blocking sockets with timeouts - added GUI monitor for AmigaOS - compiled with clib2 1.196 CREDITS ------- - Colin Wenzel for dos.library help and expert advice - Olaf Barthel for clib2 fixes and threading advice - Alex Carmona for the icon |
