longer includes machine/elf.h.
* consumers of elf.h now use the minimalist elf header possible.
This change is motivated by Binutils 2.11.0 and too much clashing over
our base elf headers and the Binutils elf headers.
no longer contains kernel specific data structures, but rather
only scalar values and structures that are already part of the
kernel/user interface, specifically rusage and rtprio. It no
longer contains proc, session, pcred, ucred, procsig, vmspace,
pstats, mtx, sigiolst, klist, callout, pasleep, or mdproc. If
any of these changed in size, ps, w, fstat, gcore, systat, and
top would all stop working. The new structure has over 200 bytes
of unassigned space for future values to be added, yet is nearly
100 bytes smaller per entry than the structure that it replaced.
maintainers.
After we established our branding method of writing upto 8 characters of
the OS name into the ELF header in the padding; the Binutils maintainers
and/or SCO (as USL) decided that instead the ELF header should grow two new
fields -- EI_OSABI and EI_ABIVERSION. Each of these are an 8-bit unsigned
integer. SCO has assigned official values for the EI_OSABI field. In
addition to this, the Binutils maintainers and NetBSD decided that a better
ELF branding method was to include ABI information in a ".note" ELF
section.
With this set of changes, we will now create ELF binaries branded using
both "official" methods. Due to the complexity of adding a section to a
binary, binaries branded with ``brandelf'' will only brand using the
EI_OSABI method. Also due to the complexity of pulling a section out of an
ELF file vs. poking around in the ELF header, our image activator only
looks at the EI_OSABI header field.
Note that a new kernel can still properly load old binaries except for
Linux static binaries branded in our old method.
*
* For a short period of time, ``ld'' will also brand ELF binaries
* using our old method. This is so people can still use kernel.old
* with a new world. This support will be removed before 5.0-RELEASE,
* and may not last anywhere upto the actual release. My expiration
* time for this is about 6mo.

All Makefiles now use MACHINE_ARCH for the target architecture.
Unification is required for cross-building.

Merge the contents (less some trivial bordering the silly comments)
of <vm/vm_prot.h> and <vm/vm_inherit.h> into <vm/vm.h>. This puts
the #defines for the vm_inherit_t and vm_prot_t types next to their
typedefs.
This paves the road for the commit to follow shortly: change
useracc() to use VM_PROT_{READ|WRITE} rather than B_{READ|WRITE}
as argument.
procfs map file when object IDs were eliminated in the mega-commit
that included procfs_map.c revision 1.19.
The map file is a terrible hodge-podge. The fields that are used
mainly for kernel debugging should be moved out of it into a
separate file, so that the interface presented by the map file to
applications can remain stable in the face of VM system changes.

like so;

Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.

If it is ELF, print a diagnostic saying that it is not supported yet
by this program. This is a stop-gap anti-bug-report measure because
it looks like there won't be time to implement gcore's ELF support
before 3.0 is released.
not equal, the command line arguments are wrong. E.g.:
$./gcore /bin/sh 1761
$ ./gcore /usr/tmp/chroot/bin/sh 1761
gcore: The executable /usr/tmp/chroot/bin/sh does not belong to process 1761!
Text segment size (in bytes): executable 303104, process 294912
automagically. -lfoo has to be right to work, but ${LIBFO0} is too
easy to forget or misspell; nothing checks it and it should be
different for shared libraries.
