I would like to add NFS support (both client and server) for my Android device. I have already built and inserted the required kernel modules (sunrpc.ko
, lockd.ko
, nfs.ko
, exportfs.ko
, nfsd.ko
)
My Android phone now can act as an NFS client by mounting using Busybox. But to work as an NFS server, seems like some utilities (such as exportfs
) and service daemons (portmap
, nfsd
, mountd
, etc) are missing.
I figured I needed to install the nfs-utils
package (http://nfs.sourceforge.net/).
I thought I should cross-compile it on my pc and then install it on my phone's Linux kernel. I'm not familiar with the whole cross-compiling thing. I'm trying to compile it on Ubuntu right now, and this is the command I'm using:
$ ./configure
--target=arm-linux-gnueabi
--host=arm-linux-gnueabi
--build=x86_64-linux
CC=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/include/"
CFLAGS="-nostdlib"
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath-link=/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/ -L/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/lib/"
LIBS="-lc"
This gives me the error msg:
checking for libwrap... configure: error: *** libwrap missing
config.log errors:
configure:3978: /usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -V >&5
arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc: fatal error: no input files

conftest.c:55:28: fatal error: sys/capability.h: No such file or directory
I have the gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi
package installed, but I guess there are some problems with building/linking with dependency libraries I don't really understand. Should they be cross-compiled too? How can I do that? And will I need to insert these libraries into my phone for NFS to run properly?
I'm completely new to this so any help would be greatly appreciated.
