* __HAVE_SYSCALL_INTERN. If this is defined, e_syscall is replaced by
e_syscall_intern, which is called at key places in the kernel. This can be
used to set a MD syscall handler pointer. This obsoletes and replaces the
*_HAS_SEPARATED_SYSCALL flags.
* __HAVE_MINIMAL_EMUL. If this is defined, certain (deprecated) elements in
struct emul are omitted.
*_emul_path variables
change macros CHECK_ALT_{CREAT|EXIST} to use that, 'root' doesn't need
to be passed explicitly any more and *_CHECK_ALT_{CREAT|EXIST} are removed
change explicit emul_find() calls in probe functions to get the emulation
path from the checked exec switch entry's emulation
remove no longer needed header files
add e_flags and e_syscall to struct emul; these are unsed and empty for now
this makes it possible to attach to linux process with linux gdb and
see top-most function on traceback; lower functions are not available,
probably due to bad frame setup
it's not possible to setup breakpoints - Linux gdb uses hw breakpoints,
so support for them would need to be written
* move all exec-type specific information from struct emul to execsw[] and
provide single struct emul per emulation
* elf:
- kern/exec_elf32.c:probe_funcs[] is gone, execsw[] how has one entry
per emulation and contains pointer to respective probe function
- interp is allocated via MALLOC() rather than on stack
- elf_args structure is allocated via MALLOC() rather than malloc()
* ecoff: the per-emulation hooks moved from alpha and mips specific code
to OSF1 and Ultrix compat code as appropriate, execsw[] has one entry per
emulation supporting ecoff with appropriate probe function
* the makecmds/probe functions don't set emulation, pointer to emulation is
part of appropriate execsw[] entry
* constify couple of structures
Two main changes:
Create a linux_elf64_copyargs that uses the linux specific LinuxAuxInfo
structure. This is only used on the alpha. i386 and m68k use the
standard elf copyargs function.
Since linux's approach to binary compatibilty is to look as much
like osf1 as possible, add all the osf1 syscalls that we have
implemented to the linux syscall table. This includes get/setsysinfo,
ported from FreeBSD.
In order for linux compat to work you must have COMPAT_OSF1, COMPAT_43,
COMPAT_09, COMPAT_12 and COMPAT_13 on also.

under Linux, ptrace(PTRACE_CONT, pid, 0, 0) is used to continue the
traced process where it left off; adjust addr to (caddr_t) 1 so that

FreeBSD-SA00:42.
Change stackgap_alloc to bounds-check the allocation vs. the stack
gap, returning NULL if there isn't room for the allocation.
Change emul_find() to check for a NULL return from stackgap_alloc()
and convert that into ENAMETOOLONG.
Reorder various emulation syscalls so that all *_CHECK_ALT_{EXIST,CREAT}
calls (which turn into emul_find() under the covers come *after* small,
fixed-size stackgap_alloc() calls.
Clean up ibcs2 {get,set}groups.
zeroes) if the mapped signal number comes up zero. Previously, sigaction1()
would return an error, confusing some linux apps trying to set handlers for
"all" signals.
doing a cpu_set_kpc(), just pass the entry point and argument all
the way down the fork path starting with fork1(). In order to
avoid special-casing the normal fork in every cpu_fork(), MI code
passes down child_return() and the child process pointer explicitly.
This fixes a race condition on multiprocessor systems; a CPU could
grab the newly created processes (which has been placed on a run queue)
before cpu_set_kpc() would be performed.
so conditionalized is already conditionalized on (NWSDISPLAY > 0),
so is wscons-specific. wscons has no conditionalization on XSERVER;
neither should the linux compatibility code.
Removing this is necessary to keep linux X server emulation functionining
after GENERIC rev 1.337 removing "options XSERVER" (relegating it
to the pccons/pcvt-specific, and therefore depricated).
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.
The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.
