Hello,
We are a group of researchers at University of Pittbsurgh trying to
implement an ad-hoc routing protocol on the Sharp Zaurus 5500 pda. Our
network is running the following environment:
-arm-linux kernel 2.4.18-pxa3-embedix-021129
-OpenZaurus 3.5.1
The protocol has been implemented on laptops already, running normal Linux
OS. Now we want to port it to embedix for the PDA's but we are having
some trouble.
In order to begin our implementation on the PDA's, we need to leverage the
Netfilter portion of the kernel. Again, netfilter should be part of the
2.4 kernel. There does appear to be an "kernel-module-ip-tables"
installed, but there is no iptables binary in the userspace. Does anyone
know how we can get hold of iptables for arm-linux?
This next issue might be off-topic, so please forgive us in advance: We
also need to make use of Linux real-time timers. These are part of the
POSIX.1b standard, and are supposedly present already in the 2.4 kernel.
However, they do not seem to be present in 2.4.18 embedix kernel. Does
anyone know of a patch or module that we can apply to this kernel so we
can take advantage of these timers (or a more appropriate list/forum to
post this issue)?
Thanks very much!
