The general trend is to remove it from all kernel interfaces and
this is a start. In case the calling lwp is desired, curlwp should
be used.

static binary: otool). Dynamic binaires have a pointer to the Mach-O
header on the top of the stack, static binaries don't have this, and
having it produced a crash.
One bugfix: the EXEC_MACHO code assumes that entry = NULL means that
the entry point has not been found in the load commands seen so far.
Therefore we need to initialized entry to NULL if we want a static binary
to discover it. (dynamic binaries were forced to iscover it because when
the intepreter load command is found, entry is updated whatever its
value was before).
One hack: Both COMPAT_MACH and COMPAT_DARWIN are willing to run Mach-O
binaries. COMPAT_MACH fails for dynamic binaries because it cannot find
the interpreter in /emul/mach. For static binaires, it will accept them
(and for Darwin static binaries, this will cause a failure). Until we
rite a test for matchinf Darwin static binaries, just swap the order of
COMPAT_MACH and COMPAT_DARWIN in the exec switch so that COMPAT_DARWIN
is tried first (this will have the advantage of speeding up program
startup). EXECSW_PRIO_{FIRST_LAST} does not seem to work...
be inserted into ktrace records. The general change has been to replace
"struct proc *" with "struct lwp *" in various function prototypes, pass
the lwp through and use l_proc to get the process pointer when needed.
Bump the kernel rev up to 1.6V
the same file multiple times because of recursive loading (ie: libx require
liby and libz and liby require libz, so libz would be loaded twice)
This is probably suboptimal, but it enable /bin/sh to load on the PowerPC,
so it's a good interim solution until we figure precisely how things should
work.
I'm not sure whether this makes the excessive recursive check useless or not.
macho_hdr, argc, *argv, NULL, *envp, NULL, progname, NULL,
*progname, **argv, **envp
Where progname is a pointer to the program name as given in the first
argument to execve(), and macho_hdr a pointer to the Mach-O header at
the beginning of the executable file.
be32toh produces an unsigned long result, causing a printf argument
mismatch. This is the wrong fix, but I am not going to change the
powerpc macros; fix the powerpc macros and revert my change.
executable mappings. Stop overloading VTEXT for this purpose (VTEXT
also has another meaning).
- Rename vn_marktext() to vn_markexec(), and use it when executable
mappings of a vnode are established.
- In places where we want to set VTEXT, set it in v_flag directly, rather
than making a function call to do this (it no longer makes sense to
use a function call, since we no longer overload VTEXT with VEXECMAP's
meaning).
VEXECMAP suggested by Chuq Silvers.
