| Unfortunately, the server does not have any foolproof method of inferring the structure of the project. For example, it has no idea whether you are using the //arm64// or the //x86// definition of a function. Luckily for us, the Linux build system contains a script that's able to generate a file names ''compile_commands.json''. This file contains all compiler invocations used during the boot and can deduce include paths, compiled source, macro definitions, etc. The language server will automatically load it and generate indices for the compiled source code. | Unfortunately, the server does not have any foolproof method of inferring the structure of the project.

| - | Note that this script only forks for the Linux kernel. If you want to generate ''compile_commands.json'' for other projects, consider using [[https://github.com/rizsotto/Bear|Bear]]. This is a tool that hooks the ''exec()'' family of library calls via LD_PRELOAD hooking in order to extract the command arguments. | + | <code bash> |

| Some terminal emulators such as [[https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty|kitty]] support custom ''TERM'' values such as **xterm-kitty** but most shells won't have any idea how to particularize the output for it. Stick to **xterm** :p | Some terminal emulators such as [[https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty|kitty]] support custom ''TERM'' values such as **xterm-kitty** but most shells won't have any idea how to particularize the output for it.

| - | If the VM doesn't accept your root login password even after specifically setting it from **chroot** via **passwd**, make sure you're running the script with **sudo**. When debootstrapping the rootfs, the file owner was set to //root//, meaning that your unprivileged user won't have read access to ''/etc/shadow'' that has ''rw----'' permissions. As a result, ''systemd-login'' won't be able to validate your password against its stored cryptographic hash. Though I agree, it could be a bit more verbose about that fact :/ | + | If the VM doesn't accept your root login password even after specifically setting it from **chroot** via **passwd**, make sure you're running the script with **sudo**.
