Hi everybody,
Trying to make a FreeBSD port of Dolphin, I have had to use the attached patches to be able to build and run it. They apply to SVN rev. 5215.
Dolphin successfully builds on FreeBSD 8-STABLE and 9-CURRENT on i386 and amd64 architectures with videoSoftware plugin (Cg is not available on FreeBSD).
Unfortunately, I don't own much games, so I could only test Mario Kart and Zelda.
On a 32bit system I can get the Wii welcome screen of Mario Kart, but the game quickly crashes with the following message :
Assertion failed: (c->out.request == c->out.request_written), function
xcb_take_socket, file xcb_out.c, line 272.
I have had no time to go further this error message.
On a 64bit system, Mario Kart does not start at all and I get the following message :
31:46:040 Source/Core/Common/Src/MsgHandler.cpp:53 E[*]: Warning: CALL out of
range (0x805dfc020 calls 0x4c4a80)
Zelda does not start at all.
I hope the attached patches will be useful to you, and be a first step towards
FreeBSD support. The ones marked -TOTEST- should be double-checked before being
applied.
Please, also note that the port will not be ready until per-user configuration is supported.
Best regards.
Hi martymac.
Sorry to bump an old thread. Good news about the FreeBSD port.
I would love to test your patch on my system (FreeBSD 8.0 / i386), but I'm not a programmer and don't know how to apply it. Is there a guide around that I might find useful?
Regards,
pollito.
Hi pollito,
No, there is no guide, but I have a beta-version of a port of Dolphin, including all of those patches. If you want to test it, I think it will be easier for you.
Remember that it is work in progress ; the port is not finished and Dolphin does not seem to work yet. Anyway, if you want to test it, download this tarball :
http://contribs.martymac.org/FreeBSD-ports/sandbox/dolphin-emu-r5215-port.tgz
then, as root, do the following :
- extract it to /usr/ports/emulators (to get a dolphin-emu/ sub-directory)
- go into /usr/ports/emulators/dolphin-emu/ and type 'make' (not 'make install' !)
The port should fetch the SVN snapshot I worked on and try to buid Dolphin.
- once built, chown -R <your login> the work/ directory
then, as <your login> :
- go to the work/dolphin-emu-r5215/Binary/FreeBSD-i386/ directory
- run ./dolphin-emu
Configure Dolphin and try to run either a backup ISO or an original DVD (not tested).
To clean everything up, return to the port's main directory and type 'make clean'. Remember not to 'make install' the port as the pkg-plist is not up-to-date (you will spread files on your system), and Dolphin is not ready for per-user configuration files.
Tell us how your tests went...
Good luck ;-)
Hi everyone,
I've been able to update the port. It now runs fine on i386 with software rendering (only).
You can give the port a try here :
http://contribs.martymac.org/FreeBSD-ports/sandbox/dolphin-emu-3.0.r7627-port.tgz
# cd /usr/ports/emulators && tar xvzf dolphin-emu-3.0.r7627-port.tgz
# cd dolphin-emu && make install clean
Note that you should have previously installed a patched version of devel/sfml, see this PR :
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/158721
Unfortunately, I am still unable to get it working on amd64 ; it may be related to the fact that FreeBSD misses the MAP_32BIT flag for mmap(2). I've tried a workaround using MAP_FIXED (see files/patch-TOTEST-Source-Core-Common-Src-MemoryUtil.cpp patch), but it does not seem to work anyway : the game starts without warnings but shows a black screen and immediately crashes.
Also, OpenGL rendering makes dolphin crash at game startup, even on i386.
I would be happy to get comment on this work ; fixes are also welcome :)
Best regards,
Martymac.
You should try talking with some of the devs on IRC about comitting your FreeBSD support. (#dolphin-emu on efnet)

Thanks, I'll try to get in touch with one of Dolphin's devs.
Meanwhile, I've found the the OpenGL crash is probably due to the lack of support of GL_EXT_framebufer_object on my laptop : dolphin crashes at the first call of glGenFramebuffersEXT() (at Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoOGL/Src/TextureConverter.cpp:143).
Here are Dolphin logs :

Hi everyone. Here is a new version of the port :
http://contribs.martymac.org/FreeBSD-ports/sandbox/dolphin-emu-3.0.r7627_2-port.tgz
This version builds and run fine on amd64, using MAP_FIXED instead of MAP_32BIT. The previous patch was mmap'ing several times to the same address ; this is now fixed.
OpenGL rendering also seems to work, but this is still to be confirmed.
Best regards,
I have updated the port to a git snapshot taken yesterday. I have also cleant a few dependencies.
You can download it here :
http://contribs.martymac.org/FreeBSD-ports/sandbox/dolphin-emu-3.0.r20110823-port.tgz
Dolphin now seems to run fine on FreeBSD x86 and amd64, but I still need feedback for OpenGL rendering (does it work on your box ?). MAP_FIXED hack seems to work ; software rendering and sound work fine.
Note: manually patching devel/sfml before installation is no more needed since ports/158721 has been committed.
Comments/help welcome...

Hello martymac
I appreciate the work you're doing for us bsd users. I was able to compile your port of dolphin successfully after updating my ports. However when I tried to play a gamecube ISO dolphin crashed on me. This was the console output:

Dolphin works slightly better for me when using
Quote:LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1
(stays up longer, prints hardware info+fps before crashing) but there's still no gl rendering.
Can you compile a debug build and post a backtrace of the crash?
