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
this alignment would have been backward into the dataspace covered by
MAXDSIZ. Now the alignment is done forward. XXX It is expected that
in the TOPDOWN case, VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS will make sure any address it
returns has the proper alignment for that architecure.
psection alignment. XXX If the psection alignment is greater than the page
alignment, extra pages may be mapped that will never be needed. This is
inefficient and wasteful of swap space and needs to be fixed.
VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS from elf*_makecmds to elf*_load_file. In load_file,
actually determine ahead of time how much space will be needed and pass
that to VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS. Now we have a relatistic starting address
so we can do the loading of psections normally with no extra topdown
code in load_psection. Also, if there is a gap in betweeen psections
zero map an inaccessible region between (just like ld.elf_so does) to
avoid inadvertant mmaps in the gap.
means that the dynamic linker gets mapped in at the top of available
user virtual memory (typically just below the stack), shared libraries
get mapped downwards from that point, and calls to mmap() that don't
specify a preferred address will get mapped in below those.
This means that the heap and the mmap()ed allocations will grow
towards each other, allowing one or the other to grow larger than
before. Previously, the heap was limited to MAXDSIZ by the placement
of the dynamic linker (and the process's rlimits) and the space
available to mmap was hobbled by this reservation.
This is currently only enabled via an *option* for the i386 platform
(though other platforms are expected to follow). Add "options
USE_TOPDOWN_VM" to your kernel config file, rerun config, and rebuild
your kernel to take advantage of this.
Note that the pmap_prefer() interface has not yet been modified to
play nicely with this, so those platforms require a bit more work
(most notably the sparc) before they can use this new memory
arrangement.
This change also introduces a VM_DEFAULT_ADDRESS() macro that picks
the appropriate default address based on the size of the allocation or
the size of the process's text segment accordingly. Several drivers
and the SYSV SHM address assignment were changed to use this instead
of each one picking their own "default".
(1) ELFNAME(load_file)() now takes a pointer to the entry point
offset, instead of taking a pointer to the entry point itself. This
allows proper adjustment of the ultimate entry point at a higher level
if the object containing the entry point is moved before the exec is
finished.
(2) Introduce VMCMD_FIXED, which means the address at which a given
vmcmd describes a mapping is fixed (ie, should not be moved). Don't
set this for entries pertaining to ld.so.
Also some minor comment/whitespace tweaks.
as an added measure to make sure that we can execute a binary.
These default to (1) if elf_machdep.h does not override them.
On Sun2, ELF32_EHDR_FLAGS_OK() checks for the presense of EF_M68000,
since the 68010 cannot run binaries for the 68020-and-up.
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.
to 512. Apparently, there are ELF binaries with more than 128 section
headers - an example is one of Linux Word Perfect 8 utilities.
This fixes kern/12455 by Mark Davies.
* __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.
* 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
