Need build instructions

I just updated the readme with some build instructions. Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks!

@rejohnst Thanks, but it'll need a bit more than that.

$ gmake all
/hwgrok/amd64
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/hwgrok/amd64'
/usr/bin/gcc -g -std=gnu99 -I//usr/include -m64 -c ../hwgrok.c -o hwgrok.o
gmake[1]: /usr/bin/gcc: Command not found
gmake[1]: *** [hwgrok.o] Error 127
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/hwgrok/amd64'
gmake: *** [amd64] Error 2

Yep - I know what that problem is. I just updated the readme with how to deal with this. Give it a look and let me know how it goes.

Given that this is SmartOS, there is no /usr/bin/gcc, and there can't be.

If I override that to use pkgsrc, then I get this error.

[root@11ca0fbf-6d26-4d0b-a79a-bff8e2a1c438 ~/hwgrok]# gmake CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc all

It took a bit of digging, and comparing with two systems, where one had different errors, that the minimum PI to build this on is 20181122, because that's the first one that includes USB_DEVICE in /usr/include/fm/topo_hc.h.

Switching to a newer PI, I now get this error:

# gmake CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc all
/hwgrok/amd64
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/hwgrok/amd64'
/opt/local/bin/gcc -g -std=gnu99 -I//usr/include -m64 -c ../llist.c -o llist.o

Sorry you're hitting so many issues. Yeah, there is one way around the minimum SmartOS PI issue - and that is to specify the path to the proto area from a smartos-live repo that was built with the prerequisite changes.

make CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc PROTO=/path/to/built-smartos-live-repo/proto all

My SmartOS build zone has /opt/onbld, but I don't recall if it came with it or I installed it after the fact. If you have a built smartos-live repo, there should be a copy of the CTF tools in there and you can point to it by overriding the CTFTOOLS macro. For example, if you have a built smartos-live repo at /home/user/smartos-live, you would point to it's CTF tools as follows:

make CC=/opt/local/bin/gcc \
CTFTOOLS=/home/user/smartos-live/projects/illumos/usr/src/tools/proto/root_i386-nd/opt/onbld/bin/i386 all

On OpenIndiana you would simply install thedeveloper/build/onbld IPS package.

FWIW, I tweaked the makefile to seach for gcc in your PATH. So now you only need to manually override the CC macro if gcc is not in your path.
