one in the kernel source, and that one is already used for modules.
I don't _think_ this will hurt releases, aout-to-elf, etc, but it is
possible. In all the cases I've looked at, config(8) has been
generated straight after a make world, so if /usr/sbin/config exists and
is the right version for the kernel, then we can pretty much count on
/usr/bin/gensetdefs being there too.
than ".so". The old extension conflicted with well-established
naming conventions for dynamically loadable modules.
The "clean" targets continue to remove ".so" files too, to deal with
old systems.
that they might be about to blow their feet off if they have not been
reading their mail. I don't know if or how well this will work, but it's
worth a try.
linker sets don't work and thus neither does the kernel.
This should stop being a problem with an improved linker set mechanism in
the pipeline (see the bootloader) but for now this has to stay like this.
that the generated files are generated before any of the object files.
Also minor cleanup of dependencies in conf/files that I bogusly added
before.
This should fix the requirement that make depend be done starting from
a clean config directory. If you don't have a clean directory, make
depend is still required if you want the proper .o's to be recompiled.

Interrupt handlers are now configured in drivers.
Didn't update config/SMM.doc. It doesn't have any i386 examples (not
even `isa').
Bumped CONFIGVERS. This is not necessary for -current yet, but using
the new config with old system sources gives null pointers for all
vectors.
the in-kernel linker to access the _DYNAMIC data for doing loadable elf
modules. The alpha kernel is already done this way, I've borrowed some of
the hacks from there.
This is primarily aimed at the 3-stage boot process which is intended to
be able to do pre-loading of kernel modules.
Note that the entry point isn't 0xf0100000 any more, it'll be a little
further on - but this value is stored in the headers. I don't think this
will be a problem, but I'm sure somebody will tell me if it is. :-)
I'm not sure if btxboot is going to like this, it doesn't do proper ELF
header checking and assumes that there are exactly two program header
entries and that they are both PT_LOAD entries - a bad assumption.
on opt_global.h. This actually matters for genassym.o (it depends
on at least SMP).
Don't undefine KERNEL for compiling genassym.c. genassym.o really
depends on KERNEL, and the prototype mismatches that required
undefining KERNEL in rev.1.49 no longer exist.
Compile gensetdefs* with the same flags as genassym*. External
`gen' programs such linux_genassym should also use these flags
(${GEN_CFLAGS}).
Fixed missing dependency generation for gensetdefs.o. C sources
for external `gen' programs should be added to GEN_CFILES to get
their dependencies generated.
Cleaned up flags definitions and use. All of ${CFLAGS} is now
passed to mkdep and the assembler (both are actually variants of
${CC} and will ignore the irrelevant flags).
arguments as appropriate. This is necessary because setting OBJFORMAT=aout
in the makefile doesn't get exported to the environment. I wish our
make could do that!
mostly for objects that have the fewest dependencies on `Makefile'
(since they were mostly for utilities and objects generated from *.s
and these don't depend on profiling flags).
Give an explicit rule for building vnode_if.o. This fixes building
it without ${PROF}.
Use .ORDER instead of a stamp file to avoid building vnode_if.[ch]
concurrently.
Removed explicit dependencies that will be generated by `make' (.c.o)
or will be generated by mkdep.
Added missing dependencies of special objects on opt_global.h.
Use ${NORMAL_C} instead of special rules for special objects where
possible.
FIxed dependencies of vers.o.
Don't generate declarations for isa interrupt handlers at all.
Isa interrupt handlers are now declared in <i386/isa/isa_device.h>
but should be converted take a `void *' arg and staticized as
soon as possible.
Updated CONFIGVERS. New configs are very incompatible with
previous versions.
fix stopped it being used in all cases, because substitution on unset
variables does not work.
When profiling, put -malign-functions=4 in CFLAGS instead of in PROF.
This fixes the histogram counts for profiling support functions. It
gives bogus but harmless extra alignment for genassym etc.
Remove "setdefs.h" and arrange to generate it automatically at
ELF kernel build time.
"gensetdefs.c" is a utility which scans a set of ELF object files
and outputs a line ``DEFINE_SET(name, length);'' for each linker
set that it finds. When generating an ELF kernel, this is run just
before the final link to generate "setdefs.h".
Remove the init_sets() function from "setdef0.c", and its call from
"machdep.c". Since "gensetdefs.c" calculates the length of each
set, it is no longer necessary in an ELF kernel to count the set
elements at kernel initialization time. Also remove "set_of_sets"
which was used for this purpose.
Link "setdef0" and "setdef1" into the kernel only if building for
ELF. Since init_sets() is no longer used, there is no need to link
them into an a.out kernel.
the patches in freefall:/home/dfr/ld.diffs to your ld sources and set
BINFORMAT to aoutkld when linking the kernel.
Library changes and userland utilities will appear in a later commit.
source files via a 'cc -include opt_global.h ...' type arrangement.
This means we can untangle certain header files.
options.i386 has a placeholder until it has a real member so we can avoid
having to teach config about it just yet.

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.
the profiling level in config and decide what to do in makefiles.
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.
for headers in the compile directory work unsurprisingly. Without
-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.
