Replace the a.out emulation of 'struct linker_set' with something a little more flexible. <sys/linker_set.h> now provides macros for accessing elements and completely hides the implementation. The linker_set.h macros have been on the back burner in various forms since 1998 and has ideas and code from Mike Smith (SET_FOREACH()), John Polstra (ELF clue) and myself (cleaned up API and the conversion of the rest of the kernel to use it). The macros declare a strongly typed set. They return elements with the type that you declare the set with, rather than a generic void *. For ELF, we use the magic ld symbols (__start_<setname> and __stop_<setname>). Thanks to Richard Henderson <rth@redhat.com> for the trick about how to force ld to provide them for kld's. For a.out, we use the old linker_set struct. NOTE: the item lists are no longer null terminated. This is why the code impact is high in certain areas. The runtime linker has a new method to find the linker set boundaries depending on which backend format is in use. linker sets are still module/kld unfriendly and should never be used for anything that may be modular one day.
