[Oisf-devel] suricata on solaris?

The following info is dated back in Feb. So perhaps it is outdated.  The 
work was based on Solaris 10, but should also work with OpenSolaris.  
Feel free to let me know any question.


      LIBNET

    * Suricata requires libnet-1.1.x.so; the package available at
      www.sunfreeware.com has libnet.a only.
    * Instead, download libnet tarball from www.sunfreeware.com
    * /usr/sfw/bin/gtar xzf libnet-1.1.2.1.tar.gz
    * Get the patch files from D.Mehra's OpenSolaris package and build

wget http://cr.opensolaris.org/~dmehra/libnet/raw_files/new/usr/src/lib/libnet/libnet_link_dlpi.c.patch
wget http://cr.opensolaris.org/~dmehra/libnet/raw_files/new/usr/src/lib/libnet/makefile.am.patch
wget http://cr.opensolaris.org/~dmehra/libnet/raw_files/new/usr/src/lib/libnet/makefile.in.patch
patch -b -d src libnet_link_dlpi.c < libnet_link_dlpi.c.patch
patch -b -d src Makefile.am < makefile.am.patch
patch -b -p1 -d src Makefile.in < makefile.in.patch

export CFLAGS="-g -fPIC"
export PATH=/opt/gccfss/bin:$PATH
./configure
gmake
gmake install


      Modify configure.in and configure to add a new OS label SUNOS

    case "$host" in
            *-*-*freebsd*)
                    CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DOS_FREEBSD"
                    CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/local/include/libnet11"
                    LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib/libnet11"
                    ;;
           *darwin*|*Darwin*)
                    CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DOS_DARWIN"
                    CPPFLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -I/opt/local/include"
                    LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L/opt/local/lib"
                    ;;
           *SunOS*)
                    CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DOS_SUNOS"
                    CPPLAGS="${CPPFLAGS} -I/usr/sfw/include"
                    LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -L/usr/sfw/lib"
                    ;;
           *-*-linux*)
                    #for now do nothing
                    ;;
           *)


      Modify src

    * cd ./src
    * source-pcap-file.c: replace u_int8_t with uint8_t as u_int8_t is
      only defined in linux kernel header file, not POSIX standard
    * util-debug.c: #define LOG_AUTHPRIV to LOG_AUTH and LOG_FTP to
      LOG_DAEMON since there is neither LOG_AUTHPRIV nor LOG_FTP in Solaris
    * stream-tcp.c: same as previous item, replace u_int8_t with uint8_t
      as u_int8_t
    * suricata-common.h: include <strings.h> to pick up definition of
      index()
    * tm-threads.c: replace syscall(SYS_gettid) with pthread_self();
      replace sched_setaffinity() with processor_bind()
    * util-debug.c: replace syscall(SYS_gettid) with pthread_self()
    * util-debug-filters.c: replace syscall(SYS_gettid) with pthread_self()
    * stream-tcp-reassemble.h: replace u_int8_t with uint8_t
    * util-daemon.c: include <signal.h>
