have successfully built, booted, and run a number of different ELF
kernel configurations, including GENERIC. LINT also builds and
links cleanly, though I have not tried to boot it.
The impact on developers is virtually nil, except for two things.
All linker sets that might possibly be present in the kernel must be
listed in "sys/i386/i386/setdefs.h". And all C symbols that are
also referenced from assembly language code must be listed in
"sys/i386/include/asnames.h". It so happens that failure to do
these things will have no impact on the a.out kernel. But it will
break the build of the ELF kernel.
The ELF bootloader works, but it is not ready to commit quite yet.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

Makefile.i386:
Align functions to 16-byte boundaries if profiling is enabled. This
will allow a fourfold reduction in the size of the profiling buffers.

-I-, the search for "foo.h" begins in the directory of the file
that includes it, and the compile directory is only searched because
`-I.' is in ${INCLUDES}.
Removed -I$S/sys from ${INCLUDES}. It was once necessary to find
things like "param.h" in $S/sys. Now <sys/param.h> is found in $S.

cc -c -x assembler-with-cpp -o file.o file.s.
This means that any cpp fatal errors will now be detected, as well as
running *.s files through an ansi cpp instead of a traditional cpp.
(fixes to allow *.s to compile under both ansi and traditional to follow)
netscape-2.0 for Linux running all the Java stuff. The scrollbars are now
working, at least on my machine. (whew! :-)
I'm uncomfortable with the size of this commit, but it's too
inter-dependant to easily seperate out.
The main changes:
COMPAT_LINUX is *GONE*. Most of the code has been moved out of the i386
machine dependent section into the linux emulator itself. The int 0x80
syscall code was almost identical to the lcall 7,0 code and a minor tweak
allows them to both be used with the same C code. All kernels can now
just modload the lkm and it'll DTRT without having to rebuild the kernel
first. Like IBCS2, you can statically compile it in with "options LINUX".
A pile of new syscalls implemented, including getdents(), llseek(),
readv(), writev(), msync(), personality(). The Linux-ELF libraries want
to use some of these.
linux_select() now obeys Linux semantics, ie: returns the time remaining
of the timeout value rather than leaving it the original value.
Quite a few bugs removed, including incorrect arguments being used in
syscalls.. eg: mixups between passing the sigset as an int, vs passing
it as a pointer and doing a copyin(), missing return values, unhandled
cases, SIOC* ioctls, etc.
The build for the code has changed. i386/conf/files now knows how
to build linux_genassym and generate linux_assym.h on the fly.
Supporting changes elsewhere in the kernel:
The user-mode signal trampoline has moved from the U area to immediately
below the top of the stack (below PS_STRINGS). This allows the different
binary emulations to have their own signal trampoline code (which gets rid
of the hardwired syscall 103 (sigreturn on BSD, syslog on Linux)) and so
that the emulator can provide the exact "struct sigcontext *" argument to
the program's signal handlers.
The sigstack's "ss_flags" now uses SS_DISABLE and SS_ONSTACK flags, which
have the same values as the re-used SA_DISABLE and SA_ONSTACK which are
intended for sigaction only. This enables the support of a SA_RESETHAND
flag to sigaction to implement the gross SYSV and Linux SA_ONESHOT signal
semantics where the signal handler is reset when it's triggered.
makesyscalls.sh no longer appends the struct sysentvec on the end of the
generated init_sysent.c code. It's a lot saner to have it in a seperate
file rather than trying to update the structure inside the awk script. :-)
At exec time, the dozen bytes or so of signal trampoline code are copied
to the top of the user's stack, rather than obtaining the trampoline code
the old way by getting a clone of the parent's user area. This allows
Linux and native binaries to freely exec each other without getting
trampolines mixed up.
libkern.a are now specified by listing their source files in
files.${MACHINE}. The list is machine-dependent to save space.
All the necessary object for each machine must be linked into the
kernel in case an lkm wants one.
prototypes don't go missing again. Also added -Winline so that some
doubtful (non-)inlines get fixed.
bsd.kmod.mk:
Also added `-Wreturn-type -Wimplicit -Wnested-externs' to catch up
with the kernel.
will cause kernel compiles to work even if the src/includes directory
doesn't exist but still do the 'Right Thing' and pull files from the

(Boot with the -D flag if you want symbols.)
Make it easier to extend `struct bootinfo' without losing either forwards
or backwards compatibility.
ddb_aout.c:
Get the symbol table from wherever the loader put it.
Nuke db_symtab[SYMTAB_SPACE].
boot.c:
Enable loading of symbols. Align them on a page boundary. Add printfs
about the symbol table sizes.
Pass the memory sizes to the kernel.
Fix initialization of `unit' (it got moved out of the loop).
Fix adding the bss size (it got moved inside an ifdef).
Initialize serial port when RB_SERIAL is toggled on.
Fix comments.
Clean up formatting of recently added code.
io.c:
Clean up formatting of recently added code.
netboot/main.c, machdep.c, wd.c:

LINT:
Nuke SYMTAB_SPACE.
Fix comment about DODUMP.
Makefile.i386:
Nuke use of dbsym.
Exclude gcc symbols from kernel unless compiling with -g.
Remove unused macro.
Fix comments and formatting.
genassym.c:
Generate defines for some new bootinfo fields. Change names of old ones.
locore.s:
Copy only the valid part of the `struct bootinfo' passed by the loader.
Reserve space for symbol table, if any.
machdep.c:
Check the memory sizes passed by the loader, if any. Don't use them yet.
bootinfo.h:
Add a size field so that we can resolve some mismatches between the loader
bootinfo and the kernel boot info. The version number is not so good for
this because of historical botches and because it's harder to maintain.
Add memory size and symbol table fields. Change the names of everything.
Hacks to save a few bytes:
asm.S, boot.c, boot2.S:
Replace `ouraddr' by `(BOOTSEG << 4)'.
boot.c:
Don't statically initialize `loadflags' to 0. Disable the "REDUNDANT"
code that skips the BIOS variables. Eliminate `total'. Combine some
more printfs.
boot.h, disk.c, io.c, table.c:
Move all statically initialzed data to table.c.
io.c:
Don't put the A20 gate bits in a variable.
printf() is inconsistent with the prototype for the library printf() and
gets declared if DIAGNOSTIC is defined because <vm/vm_page.h> includes
<sys/systm.h>.
Recommend -Wimplicit in CWARNFLAGS next. There are still a few hundred
potential arg mismatches because no function declaration is in scope.
Don't duplicate option `-I.'.
Remove null editing of the assembler source for all profiled objects.
The required magic has been done since prehistoric times by an
asm("mcount") declaration.
Simplify the clean rule.
Don't try to be clever about timestamps involving genassym. genassym's
timestamp usually got ahead of assym.s's timestamp, so `make' almost
always had to run genassym and compare *assym.s to decide that nothing
needed to be done. The cost is reassembling a few files whenever
genassym is rebuilt. Assembling is almost as fast as comparing.
Always go through genassym.o to build genassym. This would have avoided
numerous bugs involving mkdep -p. Now it just stops genassym from
depending on the name of the temporary object file.
Use ${CFLAGS} for building genassym. Mainly ${CWARNFLAGS} were missing.
