Without this fix, all IPv6 TCP RST packet has wrong cksum value,
so IPv6 connect() trial to 5.0 machine won't fail until tcp connect timeout,
when they should fail soon.
Thanks to haro@tk.kubota.co.jp (Munehiro Matsuda) for his much debugging
help and detailed info.
I've done this by having requests to allocate memory propigate up the
tree. We'll see how well this works and reevaluate if it isn't
working well. Also initialize ptr in the tuple. As well as minor
reorg of memory allocation. Likely need to do similar things for I/O
when the time comes.
I've move all defines from pccardchip.h into pccardvar.h and
eliminated pccardchip.h.
chances of consistency with other file/directory meta-data in a
write. In the current set of extended attribute applications,
this does not hurt much. This should be discussed again later when
it comes time to optimize performance of attributes.
o Include an inode generation number in the per-attribute header
information. This allows consistency verification to catch when
a crash occurs, or an inode is recycled while attributes are not
properly configured. For now, an irritating error message is
displayed when an inconsistency occurs. At some point, may introduce
an ``extattrctl check ...'' which catches these before attributes
are enabled. Not today. If you get this message, it means you
somehow managed to get your attribute backing file out of synch
with the file system. When this occurs, attribute not found is
returned (== undefined). Writes will overwrite the value there
correcting the problem. Might want to think about introducing
a new errno or two to handle this kind of situation.
Discussed with: kris
I did not catch this on the EGCS 1.1.x --> GCC 2.95 upgrade.
So propogate this change to our custom hacks.

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.
