Re: VirtualBox Guest Additions anyone?

Thanks for the info. I tried it and was able easily to build

$ kmk --version

kmk - kBuild version 0.1.9998 (r3126)

...

with which I was able to carry on building VirtualBox 5.1.30 much further. It stopped eventually:

Build: Compiling ServicesR0 - /home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/src/VBox/Devices/Network/SrvIntNetR0.cpp

kBuild: Compiling ServicesR0 - /home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/src/VBox/Devices/Bus/SrvPciRawR0.cpp

kBuild: Compiling SUPR3 - /home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/src/VBox/HostDrivers/Support/SUPR3HardenedIPRT.cpp

kBuild: Compiling SUPR3 - /home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/src/VBox/HostDrivers/Support/SUPR3HardenedVerify.cpp

kmk: *** No rule to make target `/home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/src/VBox/HostDrivers/Support/netbsd/SUPLib-netbsd.cpp', needed by `/home/xci/Projects/VirtualBox-5.1.30/out/netbsd.amd64/release/obj/SUPR3/netbsd/SUPLib-netbsd.o'. Stop.

kmk: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

kmk: *** Exiting with status 2

...

and indeed under the SUPR3 directory one can see

darwin freebsd linux os2 posix solaris testcase win

but no netbsd. As far as I understand it, the freebsd folder contains the source of a kernel module vboxdrv...

I'll check tomorrow the building of only the guest additions for NetBSD.

That package is ancient and has wrong patches iirc. :)

I think current vbox sources need a more recent version of kmk anyway,
so even my old pre-build kbuild binaries will probably not work.
That's why I mentioned kbuild svn. You most likely must build the
latest.

Grab the sources from

http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/kbuild/trunk

and look at the build instructions here:

http://trac.netlabs.org/kbuild/wiki/Bootstrapping#TheQuickBootstrapProcedure

Bootstrapping requires gmake, autoconf, automake, gettext-lib and
gettext-tools.

You will also need to pass LDFLAGS=-lutil in the environment to that
bootstrap command.

If you don't have svn on the NetBSD machine you are building on, add
SvnInfo.kmk in the root of the source tree with

KBUILD_SVN_URL := http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/kbuild/trunk
KBUILD_SVN_REV := 3126 # or whatever
