Development Environment

A development environment is required to compile Linux drivers and utilities. Please verify that these

tools are all functional. The easiest way is to choose the developer toolkit when installing Linux.

What must be installed:

• Kernel source code (recommended) or Kernel header ﬁles (doesn’t always work);

#rpm -qa|grep kernel-source (for RPM based kernel-sources)

• GNU C compiler;

#gcc --version

• GNU C++ compiler (for Professional version only);

#g++ --version

• GNU glibc-static (recommended for Professional version only);

• GNU Make;

#make --version

• GNU ld (binutils);

#ld --version

• Modutils (module-init tools);

#insmod -V

• DKMS library (for Professional version only).

#dkms --version

Limitations

• GNU C compiler (gcc) version 4.9 or higher is required.

• The user should login as root to install the drivers and utilities.

• Correct operation is not guaranteed for customized Linux kernels. Commercial porting service to

customized Linux kernels is available from Paragon Software Group — for more information send

e-mail to sales@paragon-software.com).
