+ This version of Apache includes changes allowing it to run on
+ IBM's EBCDIC-based
+ <A HREF="http://www.s390.ibm.com/products/tpf/tpfhp.html">TPF</A>
+ (Transaction Processing Facility) operating system.
+ Unless otherwise noted TPF version 4.1 PUT08 and APAR PJ25589 are required.
+ <BR><BR>
+ Refer to htdocs/manual/<A HREF="install-tpf.html">install-tpf.html</A>
+ for step-by-step installation instructions.
+ <BR><BR>
+ As this is the first cut at making Apache run on TPF,
+ performance tuning has not been done.
+ <BR><BR>
+ This port builds upon the <A HREF="ebcdic.html">EBCDIC changes</A>
+ previously made to Apache.

+<H2 align=center>Apache Configuration Files</H2>
+<P>
+ The distributed configuration files (httpd.conf-dist and
+ mime.types, both located in the conf subdirectory)
+ work on TPF with only a couple of operating system specific changes
+ to httpd.conf:<BR>
+ <UL>
+ <LI>ServerType needs to be "inetd" since TPF does not yet support
+ "standalone" mode.
+ <LI>Performance considerations may dictate setting KeepAlive to "Off"
+ (the default is "On") or lowering the Timeout value from the default
+ 300 seconds (5 minutes) in order to reduce the number of active ECBs on your system.
+ </UL>

+<H2 align=center>Porting Notes</H2>
+<P>
+ <H3>Changes made due to differences between UNIX and
+ TPF's process models:</H3>
+ <UL>
+ <LI><STRONG>Signals</STRONG>: On TPF a signal that is sent to a process
+ remains unhandled until the process explicitly requests that signals
+ be handled using the <CODE>tpf_process_signals()</CODE> function.
+ Additionally, the default action for an alarm on TPF is to take
+ an OPR-7777 dump and exit. (On UNIX the default is the equivalent
+ of <CODE>exit()</CODE> with no dump taken.)
+ These differences necessitated a few modifications:
+ <BR><BR>
+ <UL>
+ <LI>bypass the use of <CODE>ap_block_alarms()</CODE> &amp;
+ <CODE>ap_unblock_alarms()</CODE>
+ <LI>add <CODE>tpf_process_signals()</CODE> calls
+ <LI>add <CODE>select()</CODE> calls in buff.c to prevent blocking.
+ </UL>
+ <BR>
+ </UL>
+
+ <H3>Find that function...</H3>
+ <P>Some simple functions &amp; definitions needed to be added
+ on TPF, such as <CODE>FD_SET()</CODE>.
+ We've put these in src/os/tpf/os.h for now.
+ </P>
+
+ <H3>EBCDIC changes:</H3>
+ <P>TPF-specific conversion tables between US-ASCII and
+ EBCDIC (character set IBM-1047 to be exact) were created
+ and put into ebcdic.c in the src/os/tpf directory.
+ </P>
+
+ <H3>Miscellaneous, minor changes:</H3>
+ <P>Various minor changes (such as casting) were made due to
+ differences in how some functions are implemented on TPF.
+ </P>
+
+ <H3>Temporary changes:</H3>
+ <P>Lastly, we needed to bypass sections of Apache processing
+ since this first cut for TPF doesn't include
+ Standalone mode, pipes, forking, et cetera.
+ </P>
