# 267654 19-Jun-2014 gjb

Copy stable/9 to releng/9.3 as part of the 9.3-RELEASE cycle.

# 237753 29-Jun-2012 kib

MFC r237430:
Reserve AT_TIMEKEEP auxv entry for providing usermode the pointer to
timekeeping information.


# 225736 22-Sep-2011 kensmith

Copy head to stable/9 as part of 9.0-RELEASE release cycle.

Approved by: re (implicit)


# 217097 07-Jan-2011 kib

Add AT_STACKPROT elf aux vector. Will be used to inform rtld about the
initial stack protection set by the kernel image activator.


# 211412 17-Aug-2010 kib

Supply some useful information to the started image using ELF aux vectors.
In particular, provide pagesize and pagesizes array, the canary value
for SSP use, number of host CPUs and osreldate.

Change the load base to below 2GB so PIE binaries work including when
compiled to use the Medium/Low code model, which we currently default
to for the userland. GNU/Linux has moved their default to Medium/Middle
some time ago, which probably explains why the current GNU ld(1) uses
a base in the range between 32 and 44 bits instead.

Submitted by: kib


# 197933 10-Oct-2009 kib

Define architectural load bases for PIE binaries. Addresses were selected
by looking at the bases used for non-relocatable executables by gnu ld(1),
and adjusting it slightly.

# 189926 17-Mar-2009 kib

Add AT_EXECPATH ELF auxinfo entry type. The value's a_ptr is a pointer
to the full path of the image that is being executed.
Increase AT_COUNT.

Remove no longer true comment about types used in Linux ELF binaries,
listed types contain FreeBSD-specific entries.

AT_DEBUG and AT_BRK were OBE like 10 years ago, so retire them.

Move the relocation definitions to the common elf header so that DTrace
can use them on one architecture targeted to a different one.

Add the additional ELF types defines in Sun's "Linker and Libraries"
manual.

Add Sparc TLS relocation definitions.


# 120422 24-Sep-2003 peter

Add sysentvec->sv_fixlimits() hook so that we can catch cases on 64 bit
systems where the data/stack/etc limits are too big for a 32 bit process.

Move the 5 or so identical instances of ELF_RTLD_ADDR() into imgact_elf.c.

Supply an ia32_fixlimits function. Export the clip/default values to
sysctl under the compat.ia32 heirarchy.

Have mmap(0, ...) respect the current p->p_limits[RLIMIT_DATA].rlim_max
value rather than the sysctl tweakable variable. This allows mmap to
place mappings at sensible locations when limits have been reduced.

Have the imgact_elf.c ld-elf.so.1 placement algorithm use the same
method as mmap(0, ...) now does.

Note that we cannot remove all references to the sysctl tweakable
maxdsiz etc variables because /etc/login.conf specifies a datasize
of 'unlimited'. And that causes exec etc to fail since it can no
longer find space to mmap things.


# 117661 15-Jul-2003 jmg

change CLASS depending upon __ELF_WORD_SIZE. This is necessary if
someone wants to try to run 32bit binaries on sparc64.

Move the definition of ElfN_Hashelt to common headers. The only platform
which has a different definition for this is alpha.

# 81083 02-Aug-2001 jake

Add an Elfhashelt type for sparc64.


# 80709 31-Jul-2001 jake

Flesh out the sparc64 port considerably. This contains:
- mostly complete kernel pmap support, and tested but currently turned
off userland pmap support
- low level assembly language trap, context switching and support code
- fully implemented atomic.h and supporting cpufunc.h
- some support for kernel debugging with ddb
- various header tweaks and filling out of machine dependent structures


# 80708 31-Jul-2001 jake

Add skeleton machine dependent headers and c files for a port of freebsd
to a new architecture. This is the base of the sparc64 port, but contains
limited machine dependent code, and can be used a base for ports. Included
are:
- standard machine dependent headers, tweaked for a 64 bit, big endian
architecture, including empty versions of all the machine dependent
structures
- a machine independent atomic.h, which can be used until a port has
support for interrupts and the operations really need to be atomic
- stub versions of all the machine dependent functions, which panic
when called and print out the name of the function that needs to
be implemented. functions which are normally in assembly files are
not included, but this should reduce the number of different undefined
references on the first few compiles from hundreds to 5 or 6
Given minimal startup code and console support it should be trivial to
make this compile and run the first few sysinits on almost any architecture.
