ULTRIX 3.1D

ULTRIX 3.1D

ULTRIX release 3.1D was a special hardware release to support the then new DECstation 5000/200. It will run on some early DECstations like the original 3100 and 2100, 5000/200, and possibly on the 5400 and 5800. It is mostly 4.2BSD with several extensions by DEC and adaptations from SysV and 4.3BSD. The 5000/200 does not have room for internal SCSI disks, so external disks and storage expansion boxes were common.

DECstation 5000/200

---

Ultrix 3.1D comes with X11R3(exact version?) and only a simple X that only supports the plain color graphics (DS3100 or PMAG-B). Replace with X11R4:

"The XtPointer typedef was added to X11 with Release 4.  This error
indicates that your system has X11R3 or earlier.  You need to update to
a more recent edition of X in order to compile NetHack's X11 interface."

---

copy stddef.h from ULTRIX 4.5...

---

show all soft/hard errors:

uerf -c err

---

setting the correct timezone: the only way to set the timezone on ULTRIX 3 is by building a new kernel.

this is the correct setting for MET with daylight savings time (DST):

timezone -1 dst 4

note: date knows about the TZNAME environment variable. You can set it to whatever you like and date will show a different string in the timezone field, but it won't adjust the time:

1. date

Sun Jan 29 11:41:26 MET 2023

1. TZNAME="FARTS"; export TZNAME
2. date

Sun Jan 29 11:41:36 FARTS 2023

This behavior is different from later ULTRIX releases.

---

building a new kernel:

make sure you don't have anything GNU in the PATH and no CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, LDFLAGS.

this ULTRIX release will produce a distinct error when linking the vmunix kernel:

loading vmunix /bin/ld: Object file format error in: ltt_usrreq.o: bad issBase in file table entry in FDISS_TO_STR

• • • Error code 1

Stop.

I have not been able to determine the source of the problem, but it can be fixed by excluding LAT from the kernel configuration. Chances are you won't need LAT anyway.

this is an example of a working kernel configuration for a DECstation 5000/200 with 64MB RAM booting from rz0:

ident "MINOU" machine mips cpu "DS5000" maxusers 64 processors 1 maxuprc 50 physmem 64 timezone -1 dst 4

options QUOTA options INET options EMULFLT options NFS options RPC options DLI options UFS options DECNET

makeoptions ENDIAN="-EL"

On ultrix 4.2 (and earlier) we don't have usleep()

in the file clients/olwm/usleep.c

replace the line

return usleep(usec);

with

#ifndef ultrix
return usleep(usec);
#else
return sleep(usec * 1000000);
#endif

error in repaired Ultrix gcc header files:

/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/mips-dec-ultrix3.1/2.7.2.3/include/sys/dir.h

gcc fixes this to u_long, but does not define it. Add:

#include <sys/types.h>

---

in many cases, config.guess can't detect the platform. Specify as mips-dec-ultrix3.1

---

size_t is declared in <sys/types.h>

Ultrix also often needs:

#define NULL 0

---

.cshrc:

if ($term == xterm-256color) then
setenv TERM vt100
endif

---

.bashrc:

# set a fancy prompt

---

symlink /usr/lib/libi.a to /usr/lib/libiconv_ult.a if setlocale is undefined link with this library for some reason gcc doesn't want to link just to libi.a

Building some GNU software:

GCC:

start with gcc-1.42 use gcc to build some older version of tools: sed-1.18, gawk1, bison-1.25, make-3.75 use gcc1 to build gcc2

ultrix 3 doesn't know about atexit(). Remove HAVE_ATEXIT before building gcc.

build gcc in steps:

make "CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc" LANGUAGES=c
make stage1
make CC="stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/" CFLAGS="-g -O"
make stage2
make CC="stage2/xgcc -Bstage2/" CFLAGS="-g -O"
make compare
make install CC="stage2/xgcc -Bstage2/" CFLAGS="-g -O" LANGUAGES=c

gcc-2.3.3 typedefs size_t to long unsigned int in /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/mips-dec-ultrix3.1/2.3.3/include/stddef.h

/usr/include/sys/types.h defines size_t as "int"

add something like this in both header files: note: changing original 25 year old header files is really ugly

#ifndef size_t_defined
typedef int size_t;
#define size_t_defined
#endif
